Hear me, ancient forefather (Ambiorix)
|
Honoured be Thy deeds
|
Leading our tribes against the aggressor
|
Outnumbered, a campaign that could not be won
|
(But forever Thy blood in my veins)
|
|
Gracious Spartan civilisation
|
Eternally blessed Thy war spirit
|
Surrounded by thousands of Persians
|
"Molon lave" a final proud statement
|
(None of thee survived
|
but Thy Hellenic glory is everlasting)
|
|
Noble was your cause, brave Vercingetorix
|
Sad the day of your sacrifice
|
An example to your Celt tribe
|
Dying in solitude
|
(But Thy soul) forever in my heart
|
|
Remember the moment Jerusalem fell
|
The shrieks of the conquered, the conqueror's yell
|
The roofs that we fired, and the plunder we shared
|
The wealthy we slaughtered, the lovely we spared
|
|
Aris! And Aris shone!
|
Mars! And Mars rose!
|
|
Geuzen der Lage Landen
|
Van Antwerpen, Amsterdam tot Den Briel
|
Helden der Calvinistische droom
|
Nachtmerrie der Spaans/Roomse overheerser
|
Voor eeuwig Uw bloed in onze aderen
|
Noble was your cause, brave Vercingetorix
|
Sad the day of your sacrifice
|
|
Hear me, ancient forefather Ambiorix
|
Honoured be Thy deeds

Leading our tribes against the aggressor
|
Outnumbered, a campaign that could not be won
|
Forever Thy blood in my veins
|
Noble was your cause
|
Sad the day of your sacrifice
|
An example to our tribe
