It happened in a windy day The pasture got red and the sky got grey The Captain rests on his father's land He remembered of the words of the ancients When he came back from the war: "A people without virtue shall be turned into slaves!" The eternal soldier remembers the general's death and he doesn't forgot the days he lived or the battles that he fought The beloved freedom of this land doesn't exist for the Captain anymore Doomed to be brave, to be a hero He is now a prisoner of the war Death to the Emperor! Yet child, rules the world Death to the Soldiers those who die flagless and young Without memory and without life he remembers of a nation He knows for what was the fight a republic born in September And lives since the end of the Empire
