Luyện nghe bài hát The Battle

In the dawn the Bishop's men
Shivered in the
But the shiver not from the cold
And spread throughout the

The horses sensed the fear
Of thoughtful men
Who that wives and families
Might see them once

The bishops a dawn patrol
To the weight
Of forces at the command
behind the gate

The ground mist hid the patrol's
As drew close enough to show
The sentries on the
And an drew his bow

From the topmost tower a fell
As an arrow pierced his
And his flight into the moat
that of a gull

The patrol reported
There was much to see
But the strong and castle
A of the free

The King's men communion
As the rays of the sun
Lit up the castle's walls
The fatal day

From the castle green the rooks flight
To the high in the east
To their minds the battlefield
Set a table for a

A tide of black, the men
Equality their
like ants across the hill
Their aim at last in

The King's men in purest white
Were back by force
And the fighting grew more
As the battle its course

The Bishops gave the
No mercy to be
The sacrifice reap rewards
the King is overthrown

The sight of children dead
Made hardened soldiers
The outer began to fall
They moved towards the

The surveyed the battlefield
Their hungry eyes
Reveled in the sight of
no surprise

The pressure mounted
As the neared the gate
And the King called to his knights
your lives or the State

When the anxious began to fail
As thought he might
The Queen ran screaming the walls
And the men to fight

The Bishop's men tiring
As the afternoon drew
And the King's men lowered the
And out through the gate

They fought their way across the
The men like falling
Or ears of corn that fall in
The vicious sickle

The tide receded up the
The waste of reclaimed
Once swamp became
A shore of white sand

A blinded priest was to bless
Both dying and the
As he stumbled around the
His running red

If were black or white
His eyes could see
And death made no
man he be

As darkness both camps withdrew
Their soldiers slain cattle
Leaving the rooks to alone
The of the battle

At both camps reviewed
Their sad depleted
As of the battle
Gave God their grateful
