Blessed By Baal

Coming from new Carthage
We crossed the Pyrenees
Feral tribes attacked us,
we forced them to their knees
The river Rhone troubled us,
but we conquered this barrier too
The Roman legions sought us in vain
nothing can stop us now.

Astarte be with them
Show the way, don´t let us down
Astarte protect them
From the cold and from the snow.

Marching side by side
War-beasts are our guides
Onward to Italia
Step by step we fight
Against the mountains high
Through icy frozen hell
We follow Hannibal.

In the wake of our General
We advance over the Alps
Nobody thought it could be done
but he did it blessed by Baal
Strong and proud we follow him
Fifty thousand men
„Hannibal ad Portas“
Appalled they shall scream
Rome is close at Hand.

Astarte be with them
Show the way, don´t let us down
Astarte protect them
From the cold and from the snow.

Marching side by side
War-beasts are our guides
Onward to Italia
Step by step we fight
Against the mountains high
Through icy frozen hell
We follow Hannibal.

“In the battle of Cannae, Hannibal crushed a superior force. Over seventy thousand legionaries were slaughtered. This made him the greatest threat Rome should ever face.”

Hannibal, Hannibal, Hannibal.
