Winged Hussars

When the winged hussars arrived

A cry for help in time of need, await relief from holy league

Sixty days of siege, outnumbered and weak

Sent a message to the sky, wounded soldiers left to die

Will they hold the wall or will they city fall

Dedication

Dedication

They're outnumbered 15 to one

And the battle's begun

Then the winged hussars arrived

Coming down the mountainside

Then the winged hussars arrived

Coming down they turned the tide

As the days are passing by and as the dead are piling high

No escape and no salvation

Trenches to explosive halls are buried deep beneath the walls

Plant the charges there and watch the city fear

Desperation

Desperation

It's a desperate race against the mine

And a race against time

Then the winged hussars arrived

Coming down the mountainside

Then the winged hussars arrived

Coming down they turned the tide

Cannonballs are coming down from the sky

Janissaries, are you ready to die?

We will seek our vengeance eye for an eye

You'll be stopped upon the steps of our gate

On this field you're only facing our hate

But back home the sultan's sealing your fate

We remember

In September

That's the night Vienna was freed

We made the enemy bleed

Then the winged hussars arrived

Coming down the mountainside

Then the winged hussars arrived

Coming down they turned the tide

Then the winged hussars arrived

Coming down the mountainside

Then the winged hussars arrived

Coming down they turned the tide

We remember

In September

When the winged hussars arrived
