[Intro]
(Calm, narrative)
In the year of sixteen-ten
From the Commonwealth they march again
Żółkiewski leads to the Frozen norse
To claim the Russian throne by force...
[Verse 1]
Through the snow and endless plains
Polish wings ride without chains
Dymitriads, the false tsar dead
Now the road to Moscow lies ahead
Hetman’s banner flying high
Victory or death, no compromise!
[Pre-Chorus]
From Smolensk the gates are breached
Kremlin walls within our reach
Seven thousand against the horde
Lances ready, prepare your sword!
[Chorus]
Kremlin falls! The eagle rise!
Poland wins, Russian dies!
Tsar on his knees, the crown is taken
White and red – the East is shaken!
Kremlin falls! Through fire and glory!
Polish barb in Russian story!
From Warsaw to the Russian throne
The white eagle reigns alone!
[Verse 2]
October dawn, the city wakes
In flames and fear, the Kremlin shakes
Vasili Shuisky bows in shame
Before King Sigismund's name
Golden banners on the spires
Poland's triumph never tires!
[Bridge]
Two years the Poles held the heart of the East
But betrayal came like a thief in the night
Yet the legend lives, the story remain
Of the day the white eagle reigned!
[Chorus]
Kremlin falls! The eagle rise!
Poland wins, Russian dies!
Tsar on his knees, the crown is taken
White and red – the East is shaken!
Kremlin falls! Through fire and glory!
Polish barb in Russian story!
From Warsaw to the Russian throne
The white eagle reigns alone!
(With power)
Kremlin falls! Through blood and fire!
Winged hussars fuel the pyre!
KREMLIN FALLS!
KREMLIN FALLS!
THE EAGLE RISE RUSSIAN DIES!
KREMLIN FALLS!
KREMLIN FALLS!
In Russian Throne, white eagle reigns alone!
