So silent before the storm, awaiting command

A few have been chosen to stand, as one outnumbered by far

The orders from high command - fight back, hold your ground!

In early September it came, a war unknown to the world

No army may enter that land

That is protected by Polish hand

Unless you are forty to one

Your force will soon be undone, undone

Baptized in fire, forty to one

Spirit of Spartans - death and glory

Soldiers of Poland, second to none

Wrath of the !@#$ brought to a halt

The eighth of September it starts, the rage of the !@#$

A barrage of mortars and guns, stand fast, the bunkers will hold

The captain has pledged his life, I'll face my fate here

The sound of artillery strike, so fierce the thunder of guns

So come, bring on all that you've got

Come Hell, come high water, never stop

Unless you are forty to one

Your lives will soon be undone... undone

Baptized in fire, forty to one

Spirit of Spartans - death and glory

Soldiers of Poland, second to none

Wrath of the !@#$ brought to a halt

Always remember, a fallen soldier!

Always remember, fathers and sons at war!

Always remember, a fallen soldier!

Always remember, fathers and sons at war!

Always remember, a fallen soldier!

Always remember, buried in history...

No army may enter that land

That is protected by Polish hand

Unless you are forty to one

Your force will soon be undone, undone

Baptized in fire, forty to one

Spirit of Spartans - death and glory

Soldiers of Poland, second to none

Wrath of the !@#$ brought to a halt
