Many, many years ago
When Persia came ashore
Heeding Leonidas' call
The spartans went to war
Joined by their brothers
A few against the fateful horde
Hellenic hearts are set aflame
The Hot Gates calls their name
A final stand stop the Persians spear in hand
Form a wall live to fall and live forever
Sparta! Hellas!
Then, and again, sing of 300 men
Slaughter! Persians!
Glory and death
Spartans will never surrender
Morning has broken
Today they're fighting in the shade
When arrows blocked the sun they fell
Tonight they dine in hell
By traitor's hand
Secret passage to their land
Know his name know his shame
Will last forever
Sparta! Hellas!
Then, and again, sing of 300 men
Slaughter! Persians!
Glory and death
Spartans will never surrender
