Martial Barrage - Of Eagles And Lions Rampant We Are Lyrics

Of Eagles and Lions Rampant We Are
A thin strait sequesters the continent
Seven centuries since the accursed defeat
In petty fratricide we failed to defend the southern frontier
The ruined innumerable – The damage outspanning death
From within nestled vipers struck, prospering as always through despair
Glutted in thralldom by an eroding current
From beyond the Ebro flowed an alliance
Legal inoculations proved insufficient Plague mutates
Clandestine union of monarchs
Kingdoms of Aragon and Castile united
Now of eagles and lions rampant we are
Betraying nobility dethroned, their once regal castles fall
Santa Hermandad rides as the ignoble are purged in resanctification
Leavings in Granada attack Infanta, now with child, joins the front
Artillery sent from allies abroad Armada isolates and prevents further helotry
As Malaga is quashed all are assigned to serfdom
One third will be spared to be used in barter
Similar taints in the east may be taken from the rear should expeditions succeed
Much of the future to be decided at sea
Slowly we cleanse our empire Of eagles and lions rampant we are
Conversos openly defile the peninsula Destiny exacts a heavy toll
Rack extracted stipends Confessors soon to hear outlandish throes
For vast new lands now fall beneath imperial hooves
Plunder spills from our coffers Much is to be won
