The Firebrands

Unforgotten nights
Of sacrifice and heroism
Unbelievable tales
Across the waters of our seas
Dynamites and tears
Seas of blood and destruction
Haughty ships, untamed men
Against the demons of the east

Like a fox in the night can smell the air
And with their fireboats
Can approach the ships
Death is near but they don’t care
A free country in their dreams full of sea
Hearts of steel and hate
Holy guide for their destiny
Thread’s their life ready to break
But the judge will be our God

Their hundred feats our islands pride
And by the years they cripple the evil’s fleet
Freedom’s born by the waves of the sea
They keep in their hands a piece of peace
Like a fox
They are firebrands
