The official lyric video for Sabaton's "Winged Hussars", from the album "The Last Stand".

======= "Winged Hussars" SONG STORY ======= During the siege of Vienna in 1683, the situation for the citizens and the small defending force was desperate. 140 000 soldiers of the Ottoman Empire was slowly but surely tearing the cities defences apart by digging a tunnel under the moat and city walls. The plan was to detonate a series of mines under the wall to make it collapse and use the rubble as a walkway into the city itself. It was truly a race against time since nobody knew if the christian coalition called ”The Holy League”, under the command of the Polish king John III Sobieski would make it in time. They managed to arrive just in time to save Vienna, and the most fearsome of the warriors among them were the Winged Hussars! ======= "Winged Hussars" LYRICS ======= When the winged hussars arrived A cry for help in time of need, await relief from holy league 60 days of siege, outnumbered and weak Sent a message to the sky, wounded soldiers left to die Will they hold the wall or will the city fall Dedication Dedication They’re outnumbered 15 to one And the battle´s begun Then the winged hussars arrived Coming down the mountainside Then the winged hussars arrived Coming down they turned the tide As the days are passing by and as the dead are piling high No escape and no salvation Trenches to explosive halls are buried deep beneath the walls Plant the charges there and watch the city fear Desperation Desperation It’s a desperate race against the mine And a race against time Cannonballs are coming down from the sky Janissaries are you ready to die? We will seek our vengeance eye for an eye You’ll be stopped upon the steps of our gate On this field you’re only facing our hate But back home the Sultan’s sealing your fate We remember In September That’s the night Vienna was freed We made the enemy bleed! Stormclouds, fire and steel Death from above make their enemy kneel Shining armour and wings Death from above, it’s an army of kings We remember In September When the winged hussars arrived
