By moonlight we ride Ten thousands side by side With swords drawn held high Our whips and armours shine Hail to thee our infantry Still brave beyond the grave All sworn the eternal vow The time to strike is now
Kill, kill, oh! Kill, kill, oh! Kill, kill, oh! Kill, kill, oh! Gone are the days when freedom shone Now blood and steel meet bone
In the light of the battle's way The sands of time will shade How proud our soldiers stand With mace and chain in hand Sound of charge into glory ride Over the top of the vanquished pride
Victory, victory, oh! Victory, victory, oh! Victory, victory, oh! Victory, victory, oh! To the battle we ride We crossed a starlit sky
No space no time We'll catch the wind Strange losses, men died We crossed a starlit sky And still no space or time We'll catch the wind
Kill, kill, oh! Kill, kill, oh! Kill, kill, oh! Kill, kill, oh! Sound of charge into glory ride Over the top of the anguished pride By moonlight we ride Ten thousand side by side
