Magna totius exercitus perturbatio facta est
Cum sagitta necavit regem
Terror et mora cruciaverunt milites
The rout resounded around the hill
When the last troops laid down their arms
Post septem horas proelii rex angliae imploravit caelum
Harold:
"with the arrival of nightfall i could gather my men and wait
For reinforcements. blessed god, heed my hopes!"
Sed william non distulit et impetum in hostem fecit in ora tarda
Ivo of ponthieu:
"i'll take his life" he said to king
"and this sacrifice will be my honest gift to thy kingdom"
Like a rumble of thunder the knights
Broke out through the shield-wall
Steel rang out like evil bells
Across the land
Sir william is still alive, he shows his face
Raising proud his helmet to the sky
A rumor spread along the ranks
About sir william's sudden death,
The panic blew away when he showed his face
And the time has come to annihilate thy troops
Arrows falling down
On the saxon lines
Sir william is still alive, he shows his face
Raising proud his helmet to the sky
Harold's dead, his body now lies
After he's got by an arrow in his eye
Harold dies, harold the king,
Leaving the green fields of anglia at the mercy of fate
Ultimus incursus fuit certus et cruentus
Saxon line was broken down,
All that was left were the housecarls
Showin' their bravery
Rex animam efflavit
The bloody housecarls with their warrior pride
Are showin' their worth
They're keepin' up the last fight
Standing all around the corpse of majestie
Fighting proud until the last man dies
Harold's dead, his body now lies
After he's got by an arrow in his eye
Harold dies, harold the king,
Leaving the green fields of anglia at the mercy of fate
