Ambush (Swe / Växjö) - Rose of the Dawn

Forces are lurking in shelter of trees
Silence is creeping upon you
Assembled are peasants with rage in their hearts
To fight for their right to be free

United we stand against royal demands
Death to defilers of Småland!
Pitchfork and crossbow aim for their prey
Awaiting the lethal command

Rose of the dawn, so withered
We'll repay with bloodshed

One by one they fall
One by one they die
The slaughter has begun
Leave no man alive!

One battle is won, still more yet to come
The uprising's growing in numbers
With elders and children together in line
Knowing there's nowhere to run

Oh, may thy forest bring fortune tonight
Hide our souls in your darkness
Sound of their trumpets, they're here once again
With showers of arrows we strike

Rose of the dawn, so withered
We'll repay with bloodshed

One by one they fall
One by one they die
The slaughter has begun
Leave no man alive!
