The armour shines bright under the Sun
Helmets look grim with unearthly glance
Shields with Lamda hold by strong
Hands, crimson cloaks fly proud in the air
Guarding the path of no return
Smiling to death they're waiting the end
Thousands of persians will die by their swords
Heroism beyond logic, beyond any hope
Tell them in Sparta, that we lay here
Faithful to them we fought without fear
Never forget us, live with our example!
May Lakedaemona's laws be your only guide!
Under their feet a sea of blood
Maiming and killing everyone in sight
Death to those who bow before a foreign king!
Like dogs they shall die, like servants they lived!
A monument of honour forever will stand
A spirit of loyalty that few understand
Lucky those who in this style guard
Thermophyles, immortality and glory belongs to them
