Lyrics

In the Name of the God Amun I wage war
 North to Gaza I marched my armies of chariots and infantry
 Twenty thousand strong to crush as revolt of vassal states
 Rebellious kings of Kadesh and Megiddo
 Syrians allied with the Mitanni and Amurru
 Built their settlements taken over the trade route of the Dia Maris
 Through treacherous mountain passes to descend upon the Canaanites
 On the Plain of Esbraelon we rode forth bringing carnage and death
 With chariot and composite bow
 Attacking in concave formation
 Dicious three winged piercing spearhead
 swiftly overwhelming both Canaanite Flanks
 Fearlessly I smote their center
 Savagely we broke the enemys will
 Heavy slaughter and bitter suffering did we inflict upon them
 At the Word of the God Amun I waged war
 In the Name of the God Amun I sanctioned atrocities
 Wanton cruel remorseless in the Name of the God Amun
 Surrounded scattered broken demoralized shamed defeated
 The Rebels fled into the city of Megiddo
 Trapped like rats they closed the gates behind them
 Seven months we lay siege to Megiddo
 utterly breaking the League of Rebels
 I Thutmose III have brought doom upon the Rebels
 Dicious and pitiless destruction hae I inflicted upon the vanquished
 I have slaughtered the captives
 Slain the wounded, enslaved their women, massacred their populace
 Killed their people by the tens of thousands
 I have hacked up their lands, desolated their towns
 Cast fire into their dwellings Caid settlements to waste
 I have made mounds of their cities
 Cut down their fields of grains, felled their trees
 Every resource of life have I denied them
 Their resettlement can never take place
 I have destroyed them utterly at the Word of Amon Ra
