Baptised in fire
40:1
So silent before the storm,
awaiting command
A few has been chosen to stand
As one outnumbered by far
The orders from high command
Fight back,
hold your ground!
In early September it came
A war unknown to the world
No army may enter that land
That is protected by Polish hand
Unless you are 40 to 1
Your force will soon be undone
UNDONE!
Baptised in fire
40:1
Spirit of Spartans
Death and glory
Soldiers of Poland
Second to none
Wrath of the Wehrmacht brought to a halt
The 8th of September it starts
The rage of the Reich
A barrage of mortars and guns
Stand fast,
the bunkers will hold
The captain has pledged his life
"I'll face my fate here!"
The sound of artillery strike
So fierce the thunder of guns
So come bring on all that you've got
Come hell, come high water,
never stop
Unless you are 40 to 1
Your lives will soon be undone
UNDONE!
Baptised in fire
40 to 1
Spirit of Spartans
Death and glory
Soldiers of Poland
Second to none
Wrath of the Wehrmacht brought to a halt
Always remember,
a fallen soldier
Always remember,
fathers and sons at war
Always remember,
a fallen soldier
Always remember,
fathers and sons at war
Always remember,
a fallen soldier
Always remember,
buried in history!
No army may enter that land
That is protected by Polish hand
Unless you are 40 to 1
Your force will soon be undone
UNDONE!
Baptised in fire
40 to 1
Spirit of Spartans
Death and glory
Soldiers of Poland
Second to none
Wrath of the Wehrmacht brought to a halt
No, no, no!

This song is about the battle of Wizna where a small group of Polish soldiers managed to hold off a much larger German force for three days)),
