Poltava (English Version)

Time has worn the soldiers down

Marched for many miles

In the eastern lands, so cursed

Time to make a stand

The tsar has scorched his nations land

Nothing to be found

Hunger grasp the soldiers' heart

Twenty thousand strong

Listen, excuse for a king

Trust me, this fight you can't win

(Poltava)

Rode to certain death and pain

(Poltava)

Swedish soldiers met their bane

(Poltava)

Sacrificed their lives in vain

Poltava

In the shape of morning mist

Advancing on their foe

Bullets break the silent air

Wasted battle plan

Swedish forces stand alone

King has left command

Rule is left to lesser men

Waiting for their chance

Listen, obey my command

Hear me or die by my hand

(Poltava)

Rode to certain death and pain

(Poltava)

Swedish soldiers met their bane

(Poltava)

Sacrificed their lives in vain

Poltava

Russian armies blocked their way

Twenty thousand lost that day

They bled the ground

Peace they found

There's no sign of victory

King Carolus had to flee

And leave the land

Leave command

Madness, curse your feeble horde

Fear me or you'll die by my sword

(Poltava)

Rode to certain death and pain

(Poltava)

Swedish soldiers met their bane

(Poltava)

Sacrificed their lives in vain

Poltava

(Poltava)

Rode to certain death and pain

(Poltava)

Swedish soldiers met their bane

(Poltava)

Sacrificed their lives in vain
