Sing, O’ Goddess! the song of the Achaeans, Of the time when they sailed in a thousand black ships For an oath, and control of the Aegean Sing the song of clashing swords And of the heroes of bronze That shook the core of Olympus And may the song of Troy resound throughout the ages As written, in blood and metal Muses In Black ships they cross the Aegean Sea A thousand sails blow, hasting with might For Jove above the Olympians shouts he brings the wind and enlightens the path Achaeans To the shores of Ilium For glory and pride The Achaeans unite To the halls of Ilium The sons of Troy Get ready to host the fight Agamemnon/ Diomedes Stand up and fight! (Stand up and fight!) Achilles Show them our might! Oh! Mother watch us from the depths of Oceanus As Myrmidon swords send the Trojans to Charon And if my glory is truly bounded to my doom Let it sound eternally! Odysseus Alas! All Mighty Gods in Olympus Will this city really ever fall? The highest walls rise over the shore The price of Helen shall be paid in our blood Diomedes (Our blood) Odysseus For if thy sons are truly worth that woman's cause Then Athena guide our swords! Agamemnon Prepare to land my Achaeans! The time to fight has come at last My own blood I‘ve sacrificed For Gold and glory and Trojan demise Muses In Black sails they crossed the Aegean sea A thousand ships are landing with might For Jove above the Achaeans sees Achaeans The blades, the shields and enlightens the hearts At the shores of Ilium Heroes of old Shall offer their blood At the sands of Ilium Below the Ida so many fight and die Achilles Myrmidons it's time Push forward now! Leave the ships behind And claim the glory That is your birthright Draw thy spears up high Hold the line! Fight my men to the death, now! Achaeans At the walls of Ilium Heroes of old Shall offer their blood As the sands of Ilium Are coloured crimson with men and gods.

Muses Sing, O Goddess about this day As Apollo's rage descends Below the sun among the Achaeans Grow disease and despair Achilles Oh! Agamemnon you greedy fool that priest shall be your doom You claim all treasures of flesh and gold But I never see you in the front Agamemnon I have no fear Oh! mighty Achilles For I am the king of all the Greeks Your empty threats may prove too great to pay Muses Three thousand days of siege And countless lives Three thousand nights of fear Upon this land Athena Achilles hold thy blade tonight Three times this king will pay in time Muses Three thousand days of siege And countless lives Three thousand nights of fear Upon this land Athena Achilles hold thy blade tonight Three times this king will pay in time

Diomedes O Pallas! Why have you forsaken Your loyal kin this night We lose our men to Ares They can't put up a fight Ten years of prayers are wasted At the beaches of this land With the tide of war against us And still we’ll make our stand Diomedes Do you see our mortal lives Fade to dark in vain tonight Pallas hear my rage tonight Guide my blade to win this fight! Diomedes The golden ichor flows From thy hand tonight Our spears and shields are shining Now pushing the frontline Ten years of war we’ve waged At the beaches of this land Yet victory is alien But still we make our stand Diomedes As Pallas’ rage flows in my veins Among the men I see Ares Thrash and kill and make him pay No Trojan shall be left on this day (Standing on this day) Athena Rise to fight both God and Man Crimson rage within thy veins Stand and fight and turn the tide Be the storm of bronze that never fades!

Odysseus Waves and waves of Trojan spears Drive the Achaeans back to the ships One by one we are forced to turn it’s the end if we lose this ground Muses Consumed by bitterness and pain Achilles in his tent Deaf to battlecries as ships are set ablaze The mighty Myrmidons could go and turn the tide If someone else would lead them to the fight Muses In Achilles’ bronze Patroclus leads the men Patroclus Push the Trojans back from whence they came! Muses The mighty Myrmidons,fight turning the tide, Until Apollo’s strike makes them pay a price Odysseus/ Athena Time stops with Hector’s spear withdrawing and staining the field, Patroclus’ fall might just become our chance, our time to crush them all Achilles Hector!, Hector!, Hector!, Hector!

Achilles Oh! Prince of Troy You were a fool to believe that at the end you would prove better than me You spilled Patroclus’ blood on this field I’ll rip your body apart and send you to the abyss As between men and lions there is no peace or pact The edge of my sword You will find! I curse you to damnation In Hades you shall lie Deaf, still and blind Hector Oh! Myrmidon you think your rage lets you be A wretched man, a reckless blasphemer You crush the lives of men as if leaves Yet will not live to see the fall of kings As this abomination Has brought us this impasse The edge of my sword You will find! I curse you to damnation Apollo’s bow and shaft Will bring an end to your life Muses Hector launches his spear But is blocked by Achilles’ shield The heroes come closer The bronze clash gets stronger Olympus is shaking within! Achilles Oh! Prince of Troy, I claim your life on this day Drag you around the Scaean gates The Gods bear witness of your defeat! The price of glory is so hard to give Muses As this abomination Is brought upon this land With notes of death, rage and wrath As glory and damnation Light the fires in our hearts And bring the heroes back One more time Odysseus After days of constant pain Achilles’ wrath ends with Priam’s pledge Twelve days of grace have been arranged As sorrow is transformed to grace

Andromache As the sun falls today As the moonlight veils the sky I gaze upon the plain I see Ilium cry in vain O Gods above! You take it all The Earth now is silent and void It happened yesterday The clash of shield and blade A sound of thunder came And took my life away The night sky It seems so dark Though heroes have fallen And rise to the stars Andromache Beyond the pyre’s bright light The wind lifts your ashes from the earth Euterpe echoes your legend And takes it forever in the wind Achilles As the sun falls today And the sea reflects the light The plains are empty now As the pyres reach the sky O Gods above Why should we fall? Is Olympus also in mourn? Achilles Beyond the pyre’s bright light The wind lifts your ashes from the earth Andromache (From the earth) Achilles Euterpe echoes your legend And takes it forever in the wind Andromache (In the wind) Andromache/Muses Beyond the pyre’s bright light The wind lifts your ashes From the earth Achilles (From the earth) Andromache Euterpe echoes your legend And takes it forever in the wind Achilles Forever by the wind Achilles/ Andromache Beyond the pyre’s bright light The wind lifts your ashes from the earth Euterpe echoes your legend And takes it forever in the wind

Odysseus It’s come to a point of no return The enemy deep within its walls Unbreachable, they will never fall Muses (Walls will never fall) Odysseus O Goddess, have you led us all to die At the gates of Troy Athena So many years have gone Blood spilled and endless death below What’s the result? There must be another form To cross the walls And shape your entrance to Troy Odysseus/Achaeans Lay the beams along the sand of Troy Bring the axe and rope and tie it all Bend the beams across and give them form Let the Horse be born! Lay the beams along the sand of Troy Bring the axe and rope and tie it all Bend the beams across and give them form Let the Horse be born! Odysseus This war demands another way to fight A gift for Pallas opens up a path Concealed within the cover of the night Our men shall open Troy Neoptolemus Deceit and trickery is the course of man Whose courage faded and left a void unmatched The blood of heroes has dried upon this land The Age of Bronze is gone! Nestor  Now is the time, for courage and strength  Now is the time to bring it to an end  Now may the Gods lead in our way  It’s time to take it all! Sinon Gone to reach home, they’ve left this offering  For safe return, an image to appease  The wrath of Pallas and the pardon of the sea The Sign of Troy, this Horse Odysseus/ Athena My warriors there only is one path If we are going to survive the night Remain in silence in the cover of darkness We shall open the passage to the city and the palace The key is to use this horse Odysseus/Achaeans Lay the beams along the sand of Troy Bring the axe and rope and tie it all Bend the beams across and give them form Let the Horse be born! Lay the beams along the sand of Troy Bring the axe and rope and tie it all Bend the beams across and give them form Let the Horse be born! Let the Horse be born! Let the Horse be born! Cassandra You fools, how can you be so blind? Bringing calamity disguised tonight Consenting madness You summoned darkness, slaughter and death by the heartless Set fire to the Argives hiding within the horse! Cassandra / Muses Could the end of a world be justified? (It’s not justified) As I gaze at the slaughter before my eyes (The curse of sight) As the ripples of fate flow back and forth (As the waves flow) Through the fabric of time, and mind and soul (Apollo’s sight) As I gaze at this fate, my burning home (Without a chance to avoid) No chance at all Agamemnon Cross the wall my Achaeans! Press your shields Never turn back! Between our lines the Olympians lie Slash and slice And sing Troy's demise At the walls of Ilium For glory and pride My Achaeans advance Achaeans In the halls of Ilium Keep pushing men The Trojans will die tonight Agamemnon Will die tonight! Odysseus / Muses At the end of this war I think of home (So few return) As the gold is prepared to pay Charon (Is Hades home) Just as we realise the price of Troy (was much higher than blood) Athena / Muses Just like seasons renew but take a toll (On the land and the creatures that roam the world) So the Iron replaces the Age of Bronze (But its heroes will live) All Characters Within the Song of Troy!
