"40-1" Lyrics

Baptized in fire 40-1

So silent before the storm
Awaiting command
A few has 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 40-1
Your force will soon be undone
Undone

Baptized in fire 40-1
Spirit of Spartans death and glory
Soldiers of Poland second to none
Wrath of the Wehrmacht brought to a halt

The 8:th of September it starts
The rage of the Reich
A barrage of mortars and guns
Stand hard 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 40-1
Your lives will soon be undone
Undone

Baptized in fire 40-1
Spirit of Spartans death and glory
Soldiers of Poland second to none
Wrath of the Wehrmacht 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 40-1
Your force will soon be undone
Undone

Baptized in fire 40-1
Spirit of Spartans death and glory
Soldiers of Poland second to none
Wrath of the Wehrmacht brought to a halt

No no no
