Over the Hills and Far Away (Cover)

🎻🎵 Over the Hills and Far Away 🎵🎻 “Over the Hills and Far Away” — a march, a memory, a song of duty and distance. This timeless folk anthem carries the footsteps of countless soldiers who once marched beneath foreign suns, hearts heavy with longing and pride. First sung in the taverns and camps of 17th-century England, the song has travelled through centuries — from Thomas D’Urfey’s Wit and Mirth to The Beggar’s Opera, and finally reborn in one of my favorite television series and book sagas: Sharpe. The version you hear here was reimagined by actor and musician John Tams, who portrayed Rifleman Dan Hagman in the series. His voice gave life once more to the old melody, turning it into the battle hymn of the 95th Rifles, marching “through Flanders, Portugal and Spain — King George commands, and we obey.” Through every verse, this song speaks of camaraderie, loss, and unbroken spirit — the eternal story of those who go to war and those who wait for their return. It is both a soldier’s ballad and a remembrance — a bridge between history and heart. 🎻 Genre: Folk / Historical Ballad 🌄 Theme: Duty, comradeship, love, longing, remembrance 🔥 Created with: Suno.ai 🎵 Lyrics & concept: Traditional English Folk Song (17th century) 🎼 Adaptation inspired by: John Tams (Sharpe TV Series, 1990s) 🎬 Cover concept by: Iron Saga Chronicles From the rolling hills of England to the dusty roads of Spain — the song endures, echoing the pride and pain of men who marched over the hills and far away. 🎻🇬🇧⚔️ Lyrics: "Here’s forty shillings on the drum For those who volunteer to come, To ’list and fight the foe today Over the Hills and far away" "When duty calls me I must go To stand and face another foe But part of me will always stray Over the hills and far away" O’er the hills and o’er the Main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain King George commands and we obey Over the hills and far away "Then fall in lads behind the drum With colours blazing like the sun Along the road to come what may Over the hills and far away" "When Evil stalks upon the land I'll neither hold nor stay me hand But fight to win a better day, Over the hills and far away."
