Impi Lyrics

edit | print

Chorus:
Impi! wo nans impi iyeza
Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?
All along the river chelmsfords army lay asleep
Come to crush the children of mageba
Come to exact the realms 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
Chorus
Mud and sweat on polished leather
Warm rain seeping to the bone
They rode through the seasons 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
Chorus
They came to the side of the mountain
Scouts rode out to spy the land
Even as the realms soldiers lay resting
Magebas forces were 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 magebas warriors marched away
Chorus

Chorus: 
Impi! wo nans impi iyeza 
Obani bengathinta amabhubesi?  
All along the river chelmsfords army lay asleep 
Come to crush the children of mageba 
Come to exact the realms 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 
Chorus 
Mud and sweat on polished leather 
Warm rain seeping to the bone 
They rode through the seasons 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 
Chorus 
They came to the side of the mountain 
Scouts rode out to spy the land 
Even as the realms soldiers lay resting 
Magebas forces were 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 magebas warriors marched away
