Fly the Battle Flag Lyrics


History is written always by the victors

Behind their walls of lies the truth lies hidden

Yet the past shall not remain forever obscured

Even when the symbols of verity are forbidden

(bridge)

Raise the sacred banner

Remember those who fell

Fly the flag of defiance

Shout out the rebel yell

(chorus)

Fly the flag of honour and pride

Raise the banner for all those who died

Fly the flag of the brave and the bold

Remember the glory and heroes of old

Throughout the bloody pages of mankind's past

Always the brave stood against impossible odds

The Greeks at the gates, the sons of the south

The children of Europe who were true to their gods

(bridge)

(chorus)

Remember the heroes who stood against oppression

Honour their legacy and speak their names with pride

Fly the flag they valiantly carried into battle

They stood against the tyrant and gloriously died

(bridge)

(chorus)
