Three hundred forty-one years ago
Their valor to enlarge
The Polish stood on a wooded hill
And they prepared to charge

Three hundred forty-one years ago
Sobieski on his steed
Rode in the Winged Hussars form
And did a noble deed

Three hundred forty-one years ago
Vienna received aid
The Ottomans were overrun
Their footsoldiers were flayed

Three hundred forty-one years ago
A cavalry charge was won
And now we sing of the epic deeds
Which on that day were done
