Fields Of Verdun

Lyrics Translation

As the drum roll started on that day
Heard a hundred miles away
A million shells were fired
And the green fields turned to grey
The bombardment lasted all day long
Yet the forts were standing strong
Heavily defended
Now the trap's been sprung and the battle has begun

Descend into darkness
303 days below the sun

Fields of Verdun, and the battle has begun
Nowhere to run, father and son
Fall one by one under the gun
Thy will be done (thy will be done), and the judgement has begun
Nowhere to run, father and son
Fall one by one, fields of Verdun

Though a million shells have scarred the land
No one has the upper hand
From the ground above to trenches
Where the soldiers make their stand
As the trenches slowly turn to mud
And then quickly start to flood
Death awaits in every corner
As they die in the mud, fill the trenches with blood

Descend into darkness
303 days below the sun

Fields of Verdun, and the battle has begun
Nowhere to run, father and son
Fall one by one under the gun
Thy will be done (thy will be done), and the judgement has begun
Nowhere to run, father and son
Fall one by one, fields of Verdun

Fields of execution turned to wasteland from the grass
Thou shalt go no further it was said, "They shall not pass!"
The spirit of resistance and the madness of the war
So go ahead, face the lead, join the dead
Though you die where you lie, never asking why

Descend into darkness
303 days below the sun

Fields of Verdun, and the battle has begun
Nowhere to run, father and son
Fall one by one under the gun
Thy will be done (thy will be done), and the judgement has begun
Nowhere to run, father and son
Fall one by one, fields of Verdun

As the drum roll started on that day
Quando o rolar do tambor começou naquele dia
Heard a hundred miles away
Ouvido a cem milhas de distância
A million shells were fired
Um milhão de conchas foram disparadas
And the green fields turned to grey
E os campos verdes se tornaram cinza
The bombardment lasted all day long
O bombardeio durou o dia todo
Yet the forts were standing strong
Ainda assim, as fortalezas permaneceram fortes
Heavily defended
Fortemente defendidas
Now the trap's been sprung and the battle has begun
Agora a armadilha foi acionada e a batalha começou
Descend into darkness
Descer para a escuridão
303 days below the sun
303 dias abaixo do sol
Fields of Verdun, and the battle has begun
Campos de Verdun, e a batalha começou
Nowhere to run, father and son
Sem lugar para correr, pai e filho
Fall one by one under the gun
Caem um a um sob a arma
Thy will be done (thy will be done), and the judgement has begun
Seja feita a tua vontade (seja feita a tua vontade), e o julgamento começou
Nowhere to run, father and son
Sem lugar para correr, pai e filho
Fall one by one, fields of Verdun
Caem um a um, campos de Verdun
Though a million shells have scarred the land
Embora um milhão de conchas tenham marcado a terra
No one has the upper hand
Ninguém tem a vantagem
From the ground above to trenches
Do solo acima para as trincheiras
Where the soldiers make their stand
Onde os soldados fazem sua posição
As the trenches slowly turn to mud
À medida que as trincheiras lentamente se transformam em lama
And then quickly start to flood
E então rapidamente começam a inundar
Death awaits in every corner
A morte espera em cada esquina
As they die in the mud, fill the trenches with blood
Enquanto eles morrem na lama, enchem as trincheiras de sangue
Descend into darkness
Descer para a escuridão
303 days below the sun
303 dias abaixo do sol
Fields of Verdun, and the battle has begun
Campos de Verdun, e a batalha começou
Nowhere to run, father and son
Sem lugar para correr, pai e filho
Fall one by one under the gun
Caem um a um sob a arma
Thy will be done (thy will be done), and the judgement has begun
Seja feita a tua vontade (seja feita a tua vontade), e o julgamento começou
Nowhere to run, father and son
Sem lugar para correr, pai e filho
Fall one by one, fields of Verdun
Caem um a um, campos de Verdun
Fields of execution turned to wasteland from the grass
Campos de execução transformados em deserto pela grama
Thou shalt go no further it was said, "They shall not pass!"
Não irás mais adiante, foi dito, "Eles não passarão!"
The spirit of resistance and the madness of the war
O espírito de resistência e a loucura da guerra
So go ahead, face the lead, join the dead
Então vá em frente, enfrente o chumbo, junte-se aos mortos
Though you die where you lie, never asking why
Embora você morra onde você está, nunca perguntando por quê
Descend into darkness
Descer para a escuridão
303 days below the sun
303 dias abaixo do sol
Fields of Verdun, and the battle has begun
Campos de Verdun, e a batalha começou
Nowhere to run, father and son
Sem lugar para correr, pai e filho

Seja feita a tua vontade (seja feita a tua vontade), e o julgamento começou
Nowhere to run, father and son
Sem lugar para correr, pai e filho
Fall one by one, fields of Verdun
Caem um a um, campos de Verdun
As the drum roll started on that day
Cuando comenzó el redoble de tambor ese día
Heard a hundred miles away
Escuchado a cien millas de distancia
A million shells were fired
Se dispararon un millón de proyectiles
And the green fields turned to grey
Y los campos verdes se volvieron grises
The bombardment lasted all day long
El bombardeo duró todo el día
Yet the forts were standing strong
Aún así, los fuertes se mantenían fuertes
Heavily defended
Fuertemente defendidos

Desciende a la oscuridad

Hágase tu voluntad (hágase tu voluntad), y el juicio ha comenzado
Nowhere to run, father and son
No hay a dónde correr, padre e hijo
Fall one by one, fields of Verdun
Caen uno a uno, campos de Verdún
Though a million shells have scarred the land
Aunque un millón de proyectiles han marcado la tierra
No one has the upper hand
Nadie tiene la ventaja
From the ground above to trenches
Desde el suelo hasta las trincheras
Where the soldiers make their stand
Donde los soldados hacen su resistencia
As the trenches slowly turn to mud
A medida que las trincheras se convierten lentamente en barro
And then quickly start to flood
Y luego rápidamente comienzan a inundarse
Death awaits in every corner
La muerte espera en cada esquina
As they die in the mud, fill the trenches with blood
Mientras mueren en el barro, llenan las trincheras de sangre
Descend into darkness
Desciende a la oscuridad

Fall one by one, fields of Verdun
Caen uno a uno, campos de Verdún
Fields of execution turned to wasteland from the grass
Campos de ejecución convertidos en páramo desde la hierba
Thou shalt go no further it was said, "They shall not pass!"
No debes ir más allá, se dijo, "¡No pasarán!"
The spirit of resistance and the madness of the war
El espíritu de resistencia y la locura de la guerra
So go ahead, face the lead, join the dead
Así que adelante, enfrenta el plomo, únete a los muertos
Though you die where you lie, never asking why
Aunque mueras donde yaces, nunca preguntando por qué

As the drum roll started on that day
Alors que le roulement de tambour a commencé ce jour-là
Heard a hundred miles away
Entendu à cent miles à la ronde
A million shells were fired
Un million d'obus ont été tirés
And the green fields turned to grey
Et les champs verts sont devenus gris
The bombardment lasted all day long
Le bombardement a duré toute la journée
Yet the forts were standing strong
Pourtant, les forts tenaient bon

Tombent un par un, champs de Verdun
Though a million shells have scarred the land
Bien qu'un million d'obus aient scarifié la terre
No one has the upper hand
Personne n'a le dessus
From the ground above to trenches
Du sol aux tranchées
Where the soldiers make their stand
Où les soldats font leur stand
As the trenches slowly turn to mud
Alors que les tranchées se transforment lentement en boue
And then quickly start to flood
Et puis commencent rapidement à inonder
Death awaits in every corner
La mort attend à chaque coin
As they die in the mud, fill the trenches with blood
Alors qu'ils meurent dans la boue, remplissent les tranchées de sang

And then quickly start to flood

Du sollst nicht weiter gehen, es wurde gesagt: "Sie werden nicht durchkommen!"
The spirit of resistance and the madness of the war
Der Geist des Widerstands und der Wahnsinn des Krieges
So go ahead, face the lead, join the dead

No one has the upper hand
Nessuno ha il sopravvento
From the ground above to trenches
Dal terreno sopra alle trincee
Where the soldiers make their stand
Dove i soldati fanno la loro resistenza
