Impi! wo ?nans? impi iyeza Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?
Impi! wo ?nans? impi iyezas Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?
All along the river Chelmsford?s army lay asleep, Come to crush the children of Mageba
Come to exact the Realm?s price for peace
And in the morning as they saddled up to ride, Their eyes shone with the fire and the steel
The General told them of the task that lay ahead, To bring the People of the Sky to heel
Impi! wo ?nans? impi iyeza Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?
Impi! wo ?nans? impi iyeza Obani bengethinta amabhubesi?
Mud and sweat on polished leather, Warm rain seeping to the bone
They rode through the season?s wet weather, Straining for a glimpse of the foe
Hopeless battalion destined to die, Broken by the Benders of Kings
Vainglorious General and Victorian pride, Would cost him and eight hundred men their lives
Impi! wo ?nans? impi iyeza Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?
Impi! wo ?nans? impi iyeza Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?
They came to the side of the mountain
Scouts rode out to spy the land
Even as the Realm?s soldiers lay resting
Mageba?s forces were soon at hand
And by the evening the vultures were wheeling
Above the ruins where the fallen lay
An ancient song as old as the ashes
Echoed as Mageba?s warriors marched away
Impi! wo ?nans? impi iyeza Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?
Impi! wo ?nans? impi iyeza Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?
Impi! wo ?nans? impi iyeza Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?
Impi! wo ?nans? impi iyeza Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?
Impi! wo ?nans? impi iyeza Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?
Impi! wo ?nans? impi iyeza Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?
