Sogdian Rock 歌词

Impregnable fortress, prepared for siege Above a steep rock face rising high Its summit deeply covered with snow To capture it men would be able to fly Many had taken refuge in this fortress Including the lord's daughters and wife Oxyartes would not submit to Alexander But the fortress was his last hope in life chorus: Sogdian rock (4x) With iron pegs and strong flaxen lines Macedonians set out covered by night Climbing the steepest part of the cliff The summit was seized at first light Enemy troops now on top of the rock The defenders shocked by this sight Without any more resistance they yielded Further glory for Alexander in this fight chorus
