Zama Lyrics

In the heart of ancient lands,

Where destiny in balance stands,

Two titans met on Zama's field,

To see whose fate the gods would seal.

Scipio, with legions bold,

Against Hannibal, fierce and cold,

The final clash of titans' might,

In Africa's sun, a fateful fight.

Oh, Zama, where legends clash,

In the dust and in the ash,

Rome and Carthage, fate's decree,

Marking a turning of history.

Hannibal, with elephants grand,

Lined his forces in the sand,

But Scipio had learned his ways,

Prepared for war with clever gaze.

The Romans stood with shields held high,

As Hannibal's beasts approached nearby,

But gaps they made, and let them pass,

To face the foe in open grass.

Oh, Zama, where legends clash,

In the dust and in the ash,

Rome and Carthage, fate's decree,

Marking a turning of history.

The cavalry of Rome did sweep,

Around the flanks, their course did keep,

Led by Laelius and Massinissa's might,

They turned the tide in this great fight.

With Hannibal's forces split and torn,

Scipio's legions pressed, reborn,

The clash of swords, the cries of men,

Echoed through the fields again.

By day's end, the field was won,

Rome stood strong, Carthage undone,

Hannibal's dream, now turned to dust,

In Scipio's name, Rome placed its trust.

Peace declared, the war's dark end,

A new era would extend,

But Zama's tale would echo long,

In songs of war, both proud and strong.

Oh, Zama, where legends clash,

In the dust and in the ash,

Rome and Carthage, fate's decree,

Marking a turning of history.

So sing of Zama's storied ground,

Where fate and glory both were found,

A battle that defined an age,

Written forever on history's page.
