Ride, Sobieski, lead the way! Through the storm, through the fray! Like birds of prey the horsemen flew, The Winged hussars, a sight to view. The sound of hooves like thunder roars, Down Kahlenberg, their triumph soars! Twenty thousand through the mist, Charging down with iron fists. Three thousand wings like angels bright, Cutting through the Ottoman might. Drums are pounding, sabers gleam, The Sultan’s dream splits at the seams. A wave of steel, a mighty flood, The hussars bathe the field in blood. Ride, Sobieski, lead the way! Through the storm, through the fray! Like birds of prey the horsemen flew, The Winged hussars, a sight to view. The sound of hooves like thunder roars, Down Kahlenberg, their triumph soars! With lances high, and courage true, The hussars charged, and victory grew. The Lion roars, the banners rise, And freedom echoes through the skies! Ride, Sobieski, lead the way! Through the storm, through the fray! Like birds of prey the horsemen flew, The Winged hussars, a sight to view. The sound of hooves like thunder roars!
