Our progress, mark! from far Túrán we came, Through seas of blood to gain immortal fame; And wilt thou now the tempting conquest shun, When our brave arms this Barrier-fort have won? Why linger here, and trickling sorrows shed, Till mighty Káús thunders o'er thy head! Till Tús, and Gíw, and Gúdarz, and Báhrám, And Rustem brave, Ferámurz, and Rehám, Shall aid the war!
The steely armour glitter'd o'er the fields, And lightnings flash'd from gold emblazoned shields; Thou wouldst have said, the clouds had burst in showers, Of sparkling amber o'er the martial powers. Thus, close embodied, they pursued their way, And reached the Barrier-fort in terrible array.
The march begins the brazen drums resound, His moving thousands hide the trembling ground; For Persia's verdant land he wields the spear, And blood and havoc mark his groaning rear. To check the Invader's horror-spreading course, The barrier-fort opposed unequal force; That fort whose walls, extending wide, contained The stay of Persia, men to battle trained.
