Lyrics

Original Lyrics English Translation
Don't look back, the time has come
All the pain turns into love
We're not submissive, we're not aggressive
But they think we can't defend
STAND UP, JOIN US, MODERN CRUSADERS ALIVE
We have the power to face the future
'Cause we are the fighters
Just fighting for our rights
They're accusing, like always without knowing
What is just fiction or what is the truth
They have no mission, they have no passion
But they dare to tell us what's bad and what's good!
STAND UP, JOIN US, MODERN CRUSADERS ALIVE
We have the power to face the future
'Cause we are the fighters
Just fighting for our rights
est affectus
et defectus
semper in angaria.
driven on
and weighted down,
always enslaved.
quod per sortem
sternit fortem,
mecum omnes plangite!
since Fate
strikes down the strong,
everyone weep with me!
nunc obdurat
et tunc curat
ludo mentis aciem,
egestatem,
potestatem
dissolvit ut glaciem.
first oppresses
and then soothes
playing with mental clarity;
poverty
and power
it melts them like ice.
STAND UP, JOIN US, MODERN CRUSADERS ALIVE
We have the power to face the future
'Cause we are the fighters, just fighting for our rights
STAND UP, JOIN US, MODERN CRUSADERS ALIVE
