Merry Christmas to everyone! This is a symphonic heavy metal version (cover) of "Carol Of The Bells".
Originaly, the name of the song was "Shchedryk" (from Ukrainian: Щедрий вечiр, "Bountiful Evening"). "Shchedryk" was a Ukrainian New Year's carol. It was arranged by composer Mykola Leontovych in 1904, and tells a story of a swallow flying into a household to sing of wealth that will come with the following spring. "Shchedryk" was later adapted as an English Christmas carol, "Carol of the Bells", by Peter J. Wilhousky, who changed the lyrics ( (which were not based on the Ukrainian lyrics).
All video and music recorded and produced by Orion's Reign.
Mixing and Mastering by Orion's Reign and Nikolaou Christos.

Lyrics:
And who are you, the proud lord said,
that I must bow so low?
Only a cat of a different coat,
thats all the truth I know.
In a coat of gold or a coat of red,
a lion still has claws,
And mine are long and sharp, my lord,
as long and sharp as yours.
And so he spoke, and so he spoke,
that lord of Castamere,
But now the rains weep oer his hall,
with no one there to hear.
Yes now the rains weep oer his hall,
and not a soul to hear")

Song Lyrics:
Capua, Shall I Begin?
Hes known by his sword
With purpose to fight and defy
Hes known by his shield
A fortress for those by his side
Hes known by his glory
Far and wide
Rage on the battle
Burning beyond control
All dread before his might
Ad Gloriam
The champion standing tall
Death and honor calls
Ad Victoriam
The Undefeated Gaul
Like a thunderstorm
A shadow descents from the North
Unforgiving swarm,
Upon Rome
Rage on the battle
raising a furious show
All dread before his might
Ad gloriam
The champion standing tall
Death and honor calls
Ad victoriam
The Undefeated Gaul
Ad gladium
Arte et marte
Ad honorem
Shall I begin?
All dread before his might
Ad gloriam
The champion standing tall
Death and honor calls
Ad victoriam
The Undefeated Gaul")
