Europica - Powder Dry

The day dawned cold windy, the sun is almost hiding
Silently a galley on the water waves is gliding
The night was long and shivering, but although our bones are aching,
The fire in our hearts and in our spirits is awaking

But down the line God knows
How long this river flows
If you 're not there in time
To defend the borderline!

Keep your powder dry, fight hand in hand!
if someone´s conquering our fatherland.
Let their fleet be smashed by cannon balls
And beat them ´till the last invader falls

lalalalalaa row and fight!
lalalalalaaaa, until the night!
lalalalalaaa, row and fight!
lalalalalaaaaa

The hills look blank and frightening but the old and shattered sail
Is leading us and guiding us and showing us the trail
The evening comes closer and to the song that I sing
In the twilight spectres and phantoms started rising

But at the lower bound
Rest will not be found
A wine´s making it’s round
And the sun sinks to the ground.

Keep your powder dry, fight hand in hand!
if someone´s conquering our fatherland.
Let their fleet be smashed by cannon balls
And beat them ´till the last invader falls
