Batavia’s Graveyard

Lyrics
From winter to winter we sailed across seas To the end of the world and a hell unseen A place where few if any are saved To an isle of the damned that would be your grave And what would unfold when Felsaert was gone Idle hands and God's love, the devil's work is done And that woman you think as slave shall you follow Is destined for sorrow and you for the gallows 'Twas not long 'fore blades were drawn The drowning at night of woman and child And to Cornelus an oath was sworn To kill all the men and the womеn defile And dressеd in the finery of lords and kings In the name of God my father unleash The rape, murder and every wicked sin Axed, hacked, battered, drowned All in the name of my good lord above Axed, hacked, battered, drowned All in the name of my good lord above So come men of iron, men of blade, men of steel And you men of musket and you that would kill So fear not hell nor the preacher's word For God has spoken and I have heard And it is the truth, there can be no sin There can be no wrong for our lord is within There can be no wrong for our lord is within And if you should come to this isle of the damned, to the place Where they were all hanged And if you listen you can still hear The cry for revenge by that man Cornelus The cry for revenge
