[uilleann pipes, fiddle, heavy distorted guitar, 240 BPM, brutal chugging metal guitar ]:
[verse];
The wind blows cold across the bay
Forces gather to make our way
With whiskey in our blood and steel in hand
We will fight for the glory of our emerald land
[bridge]:
By the oak and by the stone
We will guard our ancient home
No retreat no surrender
Until the end
We stand and defend
[pre chorus: screaming guitar]:
The pipes of war scream loud and shrill
None will break
our undying will
[chorus: epic, heavy metal ]:
RAISE OUR SWORDS !
STRIKE THE DRUMS!
The wrath of the Kelts
has finally come
Spirits wail and axes fall
As we all heed the warrior’s call
UPON THE BANSHEE WIND!
[verse]:
The dawn breaks cold upon the heath
Enemy sails appear from the sea beneath
A crimson sun begins to rise
Battle cries echo to the sky
Hear the pounding of the drums
The day of reckoning has now begun
[pre chorus : screaming guitar]:
The pipes of war play loud and shrill
None will break
Our undying will
[chorus: epic,heavy metal ]:
RAISE OUR SWORDS !
STRIKE THE DRUMS !
The wrath of the Kelts
Has finally come
Spirits wail and axes fall
All heed the warrior’s call
UPON THE BANSHEE WIND!
[long instrumental break with folk instruments and epic blistering guitar solo]:
[verse]:
Through pain, fire , or flood
We will stain the land with their blood
[ epic chant]:
WE WILL HOLD THE LINE
FOR OUR ISLAND’S PRIDE
AND UPON THE THUNDER
WE WILL RIDE
[bridge]:
By the oak and by the stone
We will guard our ancient home
No retreat
No surrender
Until the end
We stand and
DEFEND !
[pre chorus: screaming guitar ]:
The pipes of war play loud and shrill
None will break
Our undying will
[chorus : epic, heavy metal ]:
RAISE OUR SWORDS !
STRIKE THE DRUMS !
The wrath of the Kelts
Has finally come
Spirits wail and axes fall
All heed the warrior’s call
UPON THE BANSHEE WIND
UPON THE BANSHEE WIND
