The Battle of Glenumbria Moors
Song on the famous 1E 482 battle between the Alessian Empire and the Direnni

Who took up their arms that winter dawn,

Who to Glenumbria came

To raise their hand,

'Gainst tyrants stand

And to die in freedom's name?


Who stood on the field upon that hour,

Who answered Direnni's call?

Men Breton-born all came that morn

To defend the land for all.


CHORUS:

Rise, rise to freedom rise,

Arise ye Breton sons and daughters!

Ride, ride to freedom ride,

Truth and glory to the brave!


And when the battle it was joined

Alessians three to one,

The sky lit bright

With magic's light

And with magic it was won.


For all they stood on blessed ground

Whence all her power came

The rocks would yield

What might they wield

All in Direnni's name.


CHORUS REPRISE

So children of this Breton land

Ye best remember well

All those who for High Rock stood

Brian, Ancois, Rielle;

Men of the north,

All who stood forth

Till all oppressors fell.
