Marengo - Napoleonic Heavy Metal Song

Описание: In 1800, First Consul Napoleon Bonaparte led his forces across the Alps in a daring move and defeated the Austrians at Marengo. The Austrians evacuated North-Western Italy and following Moreau's victory at Hohenlinden later that year, made peace with France.

======== Marengo LYRICS ========

Napoleon returned from distant shores,
Finding Europe once again at war,
He saw his chance, he knew the play!
18 Brumaire, he seized power that day!

Allies and enemies, all must bend the knee,
He seized the hour,
He knew his destiny!

Over mountains they go,
Marching through, cold and snow,
Striking straight to the Po!
Ambitious, Defiant!
How far can he go?
It will all be decided,
At Marengo!

Across the Alps his columns flew,
Going where no army should have moved,
Clashes began, the campaign underway!
Outflanked, the Austrian positions give way!

Ready for battle, he’ll make them bend the knee,
Seizing the hour,
He knew his destiny!

Over mountains they go,
Marching through, cold and snow,
Striking straight to the Po!
Ambitious, Defiant!
How far can he go?
It will all be decided,
At Marengo!

But Napoleon had made a mistake,
Austrian strength was just too great,
The French lines buckled, in disarray!
A retreat began, had they lost the day!?
But then in the distance, a new column arrived,
Reinforcements! Led by General Desaix!

The battle is lost,
But there is time to win another!

Over mountains they go,
Marching through, cold and snow,
Striking straight to the Po!
Ambitious! Defiant!
How far will he go?
It was all decided,
At Marengo!
