Is this the real fight?
bloodshed and carnagee?
I've camped on a stream bank
good ground for the cavalry
Put on your gear
your armour and helms and see -
Austrians have come, with knights, no infanty
and they are iron-clad, intentions bad
crested shields, take the field
Anyway the fight goes
decides whom the Empire belongs

M'lady, I've been clad in mail
I have taken now the field
I have lion on my shield
M'lady, fight has just begun
and now I think I'm winning all the way
M'lady o -o - o - o
you made me take the field;
if I've not won this battle for tomorrow
I'll be gone, I'll be gone
and you won't be the Empress...

Too late - my Poles are done
it shivers down my spine
my troops are breaking all the time
Giddyap, everybody - now we gotta go
commit household knights and really crush the foe
M'lady, o - o - o - o
I don't want to die,
I sometimes wish I'd never wed you at all -
(Margit's gone, Margit's gone
as if it really matters)

I see a horde of German knights clad in mail,
charging in, charging in, will this be the final breakthrough
Thunderbolt and lightning - lances are a-striking - crash!
Striking high! Striking low!
Striking high! Striking low!
Striking high - thus swordplay goes
But I am the Czech king and I want to be the Mr. Big -
He's Iron Golden King from the Czech monarchy -
Spare him his life from this carnage and grief
[Defeated are Bohemians, charged by Hungarians]
Outflanked! no-,we will not let you go-let him go-
Outflanked! we will not let you go-let him go
Outflanked! we will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go let me go
No,no,no,no,no,no,no-
Gimme horse, gimme horse, gimme horse and let me go-
Rudolf Habsburg had reserves put aside for me,for me,for me-

So I thought I could win here and get me the Crown
So I thought I could sit on the Imperial Throne!
Oh M'Lady - can't do this for M'Lady
Just gotta get out-just gotta get right outta here-

We have been defeated
Anyone can see,
we have been defeated
death has been the fate to me

To Habsburgs the crown goes!
