When Death Smiles At Us Again
Chauci*, rise in revolt
Awaken in fury
Poisoned is the friendship
Betrayed by the realm
Hear the sounds of swords hitting
Do not pale in fear when death smiles at us again
Cananefates*, lead us in our brotherhood
Frisians, join with us if you despise the Roman dogs
Accused by fools
When the treaty splits in two
Oppidum Batavorum*
Burns for us immediatly
Behold the dustcloud of our thundering hooves
Cohorts* will succumb when death smiles at us again
Gods stand with me and give me strength
Allow me the revenge for which I have waited so long
My sons I saw die
In the heat of the battle
Now I know no mercy
It's the madness that drives me
On horseback I ride forwards
With my blade aimed at the enemy
I let hear my battlecry
It is the eagle who now yields
Blood sticks to my hands
It is the madness that drives me
Around me I see everything burn
Dead float on the Rhine
Dirt is in my wounds
I barely have the strength
The time has now come
When death smiles at us again
