(Intro – Orchestral horns, war drums)
“Two powers rise beneath the sun,
But only one will rule the world.”
⸻
(Verse I)
Across the sea, the threat begins,
From Carthage comes the son of sin!
Hannibal rides through ice and pain,
A crimson trail across the plain!
From Alps to Tiber, terror reigns,
The legions fall on foreign plains!
But Rome endures through loss and flame,
The Eagle calls our name!
⸻
(Pre-Chorus)
Ashes fall, the pyres burn,
From every loss, we shall return!
⸻
(Chorus)
Eagles over Carthage!
Burning wings of war and rage!
Through fire and salt, the world is torn,
From ashes, Rome reborn!
Eagles over Carthage!
Hear the roar, the gods engage!
Delenda est Carthage
Carthage must burn once more!
⸻
(Verse II)
Scipio sails with the storming tide,
Avenging Rome with holy pride!
From Zama’s sands, the horns proclaim,
The vengeance in our name!
No mercy shown, no city spared,
The eagle’s wrath beyond compare!
From child to stone, all turned to flame,
Remember Carthage’s name!
⸻
(Pre-Chorus)
Iron and blood, we rule the sea,
The Punic curse is history!
⸻
(Chorus)
Eagles over Carthage!
Burning wings of war and rage!
Through fire and salt, the world is torn,
From ashes, Rome reborn!
Eagles over Carthage!
Hear the roar, the gods engage!
Delenda est Carthage!
Carthage must burn once more!
⸻
(Bridge – Spoken, over choral chanting)
“We burned the walls, we broke the stone.
We salted the earth, so nothing shall grow.
This is the fate of Rome’s defiance —
Eternal dominion, eternal silence.”
(Chanted background)
Carthage must burn!
⸻
(Guitar Solo – Rising in tempo like a charge)
⸻
(Final Chorus)
Eagles over Carthage!
Let the heavens hear our cry!
For Rome we live, for Rome we die!
Through blood and dust, we soar!
Eagles over Carthage!
Empire forged on sacred shore!
Eagles over Carthage!
Forevermore!
