It is a mighty fighting force that stands upon the field,
These are the men of Calontir and they will never yield,
For when they face the Calon Wall the foes all quake with fear,
And die upon the ramparts of the Wall of Calontir.

The Calontir Shield Wall, the Calontir Shield Wall,
Bold, brave and undaunted stands the Calontir Shield Wall.

'Tho the foes, at length, might kill us, our valor does not fade,
Brave warriors standing like an oak, of such are armies made,
Our discipline and honor will bring us vict'ry here,
'Tis soldiers and not heroes build the Walls of Calontir.

The Calontir Shield Wall, the Calontir Shield Wall,
Bold, brave and undaunted stands the Calontir Shield Wall.

Defending on the bridges, or pressing an attack,
The purple line of Calontir will push the foemen back,
No matter where the battle, on home or foreign lands,
Whene'er the war is over, still the Falcon banner stands.

The Calontir Shield Wall, the Calontir Shield Wall,
Bold, brave and undaunted stands the Calontir Shield Wall.

We swept the foe from field and pass, and cleared them from the wood,
Broke their force and seized their banners from the ramparts where they stood,
The Falcon soars above us, and her battle cries we hear,
We leave the field in triumph with the Wall of Calontir.

The Calontir Shield Wall, the Calontir Shield Wall,
Bold, brave and undaunted stands the Calontir Shield Wall.

For they never shirk the battle, and in the Wall they sing,
Fight not for their own glory, but for country and for King,
And they who seek no glory do bring glory to us all,
The hearts of her brave fighters build the Calontir Shield Wall.

The Calontir Shield Wall, the Calontir Shield Wall,
Bold, brave and undaunted stands the Calontir Shield Wall.
