Translation

Belisarius

I am Rome's sword. Where is our empire?

Weep not, mother Rome, again shall you prosper.

A citizen of Rome I am, yet without an empire I am,

In barbarians' blood shall Rome be reborn!

The sands of Africa, with Vandals' blood, are turned red!

Weep Gelimer, king without a kingdom,

I am the sword of Rome,

Belisarius!

The gardens of Italy, with Goth's tears, are made fertile,

Weep Goths, barbarians,

I am the sword of Rome,

Belisarius!

The mountains of Lazica, with Sassanians' blood are turned red,

Away, Khosrow, you mortal soul!

I am the sword of Rome,

Belisarius!

The city is threatened with fire and sword,

Remember Totila, how Rome is ancient,

If you are a true king, destroy not our queen.

The ices of the Danube, with Huns' blood, are turned red,

Away, Zabergan, you are no Attila,

I am the sword of Rome,

Belisarius!
