A Guardsman's Ballad

Fighting soldiers from the sky
Fearless men who stand and die
Men who's steely souls are hard*
The brave men of the Imperial Guard.

Golden wings upon their chest
These are men, Imperium's best
A million men will test today
But only ten will survive the day.

Trained to live in alien land
Trained in combat, hand-to-hand
Men who fight though scared and marred
Courage peaks from the Imerial Guard.

Golden wings upon their chest
These are men, Imperium's best
A million men will test today
But only ten will survive the day.

Back at home a young wife waits
Her Imperial Guard has met his fate
He has died 'gainst those've transgressed
Leaving her his last request.

Put golden wings on my son's chest
Make him one of Imperium's best
He'll be a man they'll test one day
Have him join, and the dept repay.
