Forefather When Our England Died Lyrics

When Our England Died Lyrics

[Music Traditional]



[Lyrics Wulfstan]







Wearily to the last battle they strode



Onward through day and through night



To death they did go but they let them know the power of Angelisc might







Together they walked and together they'd fall



Under the Autumn sky



With victory song behind shield-wall strong



They slashed and they battered with pride







Over river and stream and through forest and field



They marched with fire in their eyes



Wiping the sweat from their brows



For miles they had fared and no effort was spared



On the day when our England died







Over river and stream and through forest and field



We'll march with fire in our eyes



Like the forefathers of old



For miles we shall fare and no effort we'll spare



Till the day when our England's revived
