Cry of the Ancestors Lyrics

Album: Britania

[Claudius:]

Oh, I can satisfy your lust for power

From today you will be under my wing

A tribute you will pay, and for this I'll make sure

That seated on the throne you will remain.

[Prasutagus:]

Celt blood will flow again, unbeaten is his power

If fate is carved in stone there's no use for dying now.

[Chorus:]

Die insidiantur est!

[Dragda:]

His domination will bury us all.

[Prasutagus:]

His ruling hand will protect us all.

[Dragda:]

Roman ways will become ours.

[Prasutagus:]

But at least we'll still be in power.

[Dragda:]

Highest price you'll have to pay

Your ancestors cry in shame.

[Prasutagus:]

No more bloodshed in this land

Now the wisest thing is yielding.

[Dragda:]

Such a puppet you will be.

[Prasutagus:]

Now the choice is made.

[Dragda:]

Bend the knee to their power

Freedom here is no longer ours.

[Claudius:]

Now's the time to choose!

Victorious.

[Dragda:]

Slavery.

[Claudius:]

Take the crown.

[Dragda:]

Do not lend ears.

[Claudius:]

The right side is by my side, you know this!

[Prasutagus:]

I'll dominate.

[Dragda:]

A servant's fate.

[Prasutagus:]

I will be rich.

[Dragda:]

Only in pain.

[Prasutagus:]

Land and wealth I'll possess.

A wise man has to see the time when he can't win.

[Dragda:]

A king will have no fear of dying in the fight.
