Cheruscan

Ancient Rites

    Chill the air, although only september
    Silent the woods as in deep slumber
    Here in Germania, slain by Cheruscan hand
    The glory of Rome has come to an end

    Gaul on its knees, under Jupiters reign
    This side of the Rhine, still Wodon's domain
    For noble Arminius is Germanic again
    Romes' mighty eagle received with disdain

    Altars erected where three legions stood
    None escaped oblivion, silent the Teutoburg wood
    Scattered bodies all over, captured standards as a sign
    Heads nailed to the trees, symbols of decline

    Germania!

    Midst the battle the governor fell
    Fell by his very own hand
    Romans took their last desperate stand

    "Future emperor Tiberius, do not cross the Rhine
    On this natural border Rome should draw its line"
    Symbol of preservation, of Germania's freedom
    Saved the untamed land of the Northern Heathen

    Emperor Augustus by his loss driven to despair:
    "Give me back my legions! Oh Varus, I do declare!"
