lyrics

“In 401 B.C., after the greatest civil war on Greece , an army of 10.000 (actually were 14.000) Greek mercenaries, set off to help a rebellious foreign general named Cyrus in Persia. Near Babylon, they learn that the true reason for this march was that Cyrus wanted to attack his brother, the King of the Persian empire. It was too late for them to deny following him. So, after few days two armies (on one side Cyrus with 200.000 Persian soldiers and the Greeks and on the other the king with the whole Persian army) fought a massacre battle in which the Greeks defeated everyone who stood against them. After the battle, the Greeks returned to the camp singing victorious songs, knowing not that Cyrus was fell on the battlefield and his soldiers had joined the king. When they realised the situation (without money, without food, alone, thousand miles away from home), they explained to the king that they didn’t ever want to harm him, nothing to claim from him and the only thing that they wanted was to return to their homeland. The king agreed to supply them food so they could return and deceitfully on the time of the pact, Persians stayed the unarmed greek generals. Then the “Ten Thousand” swore to the Gods that they will return home and after two years crossing hostile lands, countless enemies, burning deserts, impenetrable and snowy mountains with only friend their courage and their weapons, they managed to reach the sea - their home, having succeeded: a few men to stood against millions”.

Thousand miles away from home
after Greece's civil war
they came to give support to king's brother

On a field near Babylon
two armies claim the Persian throne
as the greeks prevail in battle

By fire, by sword
we stand against you all
We ride the starlit night
ten thousand side by side

The claimer died in battlefield
His soldiers joined the real king
Alone the greeks in Asia were left

Dark winters came and more will come
More battles through barbarian lands
More blood will be spilled as they 're heading west

By fire by sword we stand against you all
We ride the starlit night ten thousand side by side
