Orléans - Eloy

Arising common spirit

Fills heart and mind

The shadows of the past

Are left behind

We’re marching without fear

Side by side

Resolution prevails

No doubts inside

Forgotten are the tears

All suffering and pain

The ringing passing bells

Our struggle in vain

United now

As companions of fate

Determined to fight

Encouraged and unchained

Remember the days

Of many defeats

But now we are stronger

Victorious on the battlefields

At the head of line

Our hope and light

Like an angel of heaven

Elevated, sublime

We follow her call

In growing belief

Her spiritual force

Enlightening mind and soul

At last we see in the distance our aim

We’re approaching the town at the dusk of day

Strong emotions erupting inside

As we’re passing through the gate — ORLÉANS !!!

Joy in the streets

A welcome so warm

They rejoice and praise

The virgin at arms

From the distance we see

On the opposite shore

The invincible fortress

Of our enemies

A stronghold of stone

Mighty and tall

In expectation of a battle

Lurking behind the wall

The fire of their torches reveal from a far signals of imminent war -ORLÉANS !!!
