Achilles, agony and ecstacy

1 Achilles, Agony and Ecstasy in eight parts (28:37) I. Hector storms the WallSee my chariot run to your shipsI'll drive you back to the sea
You came here for goldthe wall will not hold
This day was promised to methe gods are my shieldmy fate has been sealed
Lightning and javelins flysoon many will fallwe are storming the wall
Stones fall snow from the sky We will pay with our glory
In the fire of battle
Zeus today is mine
Killing all in my waylike sheep and like cattle
Smashing skulls of all who defy
I spare not the hammer
I spare not the sword
This day will ring my name
None have to chase me
Let he who will face me
Kill me or die by the sword II. The death of PatrociusOh friend of mine, how to say goodbye
This was your time, but the armor youwore was mine. I will not rest untilHector's blood is spilled
His bones will all be broken
Dragged across the field
This dear friend is how we'll say
Goodbye, until we meet in the sky III. Funeral March IV. Armor of the Gods V. Hector's Final HourHere inside the walls of Troy, the Gods weigh myfate from this day do I obstain, to a memory of
Hate to pay for all the blood that spilled
The many thousands I did kill, no walls cancontain the Gods' almighty will I hear the silent voices I cannot hidethe Gods leave no choices so we all must die
Oh Achilles let thy arrows flyinto the wind, where eagles cross the sky
Foretold I will die by thy hand
Into Hades my soul descend VI. Death Hector's RewardCowards in the grip of fear, no valor to uphold
For all shall come to know me
As they fall unto their knees
Zeus the Thunderer, control my destiny When the cards of life were dealt,my hand a ruthless fate
To avenge, and bringeth fury, Hector fell my hate
A bloodbath I was born to bring, by birth I'm an assassin
To cut the cord of life and death,ties to earth unfasten Blood and fire beath and hate, your body I will desecrate
Dogs and vultures eat your flesh the hall of Hades awaits
Kill... Hector's blood lies on the battlefield
His body mangled wounds
The Gods who once protected him are now his Gods of Doom,Like a tower standing tall, steadfast in direction
I fall upon you bringing death, the Gods give no protection
Coward in the grip of fear, no valor to upholdcut into the earth, with honor long been sold
For all shall come to know me, as they fall unto their
Knees Zeus the Thunderer, control my destiny Blood and fire beath and hate, your body I will desecrate
Dogs and vultures eat your flesh the hall of Hades awaits
Die die die die... VII. The Desecration of Hector's body VIII. The Glory of AchillesThe oath of the Gods, this dat was fulfilledin the heat of the battle, Hector was killed
See him Patrocius, down in the dust
Rejoice in his death my symbol of trust
A dozen highborn youths, have been killes
Cutting their throats their blood was all spilled
Wheir bodies set at the foot of your fire
With oxen, sheep and two of your hounds Your funeral Pyre high off the groundHector's body dragged three times around
I will carry the torch to your funeral PyreI will ask of the wind to send high your fireHector's blood will not be washed from my body
Until your body is burned
A prophecy spoken a promise fulfilled
More blood will be spilled, more will be killed.
