Today marks the 105th year anniversary of the Battle of Osowiec Fortress (Aka, the Attack of the Dead Men). The battle consisted of shelling and the attack of chlorine gas. Despite their injuries, the Russians fought hard, and pushed the Germans back.

"The gas caused the grass to turn black and leaves to turn yellow, and the dead birds, frogs and other animals and insects were lying everywhere. Terrain looked like Hell."

—Description of the effects of the gas.

Not just the song, but also the battle.

I have problems...

Here’s the original:

Here’s the rewrite:

Instrumental

There is chaos at the front
German forces on the hunt
There’s reports from scared soldiers
They were attacked by the deceased
They’d been breathing chlorine gas
Watched the Russians die in mass
March to fortress confident
And watch the Russians rise again

And that’s when the Russians are fighting again

Osowiec rise from the dead
Leading the charge; Russian men

Okay, so my friend was in class and got bored. So, he decided to sketch this picture up.

Basically, this was based off of the Battle of Osowiec Fortress, which was fought between German and Russian forces. The Germans used chlorine gas on the fortress, killing the majority of the Russians. As they marched closer, the last few of the Russians attacked them, not even resembling human.

So, why did I translate it to Russian? Google 'attack of the dead men' and you’ll see why.

Here’s the Russian lyrics:

Besporyadki na fronte
Sily luny na okhote
Grom s vostoka
Eto ataka pokoynogo
Oni stolknulis' s pestitsidami
7000 okhrannikov v masse
Oni perelomili khod etoy ataki
I zastav' Serebryanyy Klyk povernut' nazad

I togda mertvyye zhuki snova marshiruyut.

Gialin togda i snova!
Atakovali mertvetsov, sto zhukov!
Snova litsom k strazhe!

Original Song: Attack of the Dead Men - Sabaton

Turmoil at the front
Luna’s forces on the hunt
There's a thunder from the east
It's an attack of the deceased
They'd been facing pesticides
7,000 guards en masse
They turned the tide of this attack
And force Silverfang to turn back

And that's when the dead bugs are marching again.

Hyaline then and again!
