Baksztag - Leatherwing

See the black sails, over there
The cannons points to you
The fearsome ship - The Flying Fox
Masked skipper leads its crew

Abandon hope, give up or die
Ye craft’s going to sink
The ocean’s home for those, me Lads
Who crossed the Leatherwing

Deprived of heritage
Betrayed by his land
Deprived of his life, his name
Bounded by the vow
To the nameless graves
Left away from coasts
Riding on the waves
Retake the birthright by steel
The creature of the night
Preyer of seven seas

Listen seadogs, listen well
To this glorious tale
Of the pirate, dark and grim
Feared on land and feared on sea
Demonized and glorified
Darkest of the knights
Let us chant, let us sing
‘Bout brave cap’n Leatherwing

He’s the vengeance
He’s the night
He preyed on scurvy rats
The sons of Spain
The house of dons
Been haunted by his cowl
The papal halls are filled with cry
It’s holy Father screams
‘Cause church’s booty been captured by
The bold dog Leatherwing!

Listen seadogs, listen well...

On the mighty Flying Fox
Ridin’ ‘gainst the storms
Know the mask, know the flag
Frightening symbols of the bat
In the stories from the seas
Lives eternally
So let’s chant, let us sing
‘Bout brave cap’n Leatherwing

Beaneath dark waters
In ocean oblivion souls are lamenting
Listen to their chants
Filled with cry and mourn
So mind the warning
White faced dog with a cutlass in his chest
Scarred with deadly grin
Out of rotting corpse his scurvy spirits cries
“Damn you, Leatherwing!”

He fought and killed
Explored the seas
To make his oath fulfilled
With mistress Cat and orphaned lad
They preyed on Spanish fleets
And all will know, the legend lives
And ballads will be sung
That ocean’s home for those, me Lads
Who crossed the Leatherwing

Deprived of heritage...
Listen seadogs, listen well...
