18th April 2001	Dave Rossi Does any one know the lyrics to the song "Men of Harlech" that was sung by the defenders before the final attack in the film "Zulu"? I'd also like to know the history of it as well. I found this scene to be one of the most compelling of the movie even though it was probably historically innacurate.
23rd August 2001	Bob here is the Version sung by the defenders of Rorkes Drift in the film Zulu Men of Harlech stop your dreaming Can't you see their spear points gleaming See their warrior's pendants streaming To this battle field. Men of Harlech stand ye steady It cannot be ever said ye For the battle were not ready Stand and never yield. From the hills rebounding Let this war cry sounding Summon all to Cambria's call The mighty force surrounding. Men of Harlech onto glory This shall ever be your story Keep this fighting words before ye Welshmen will not yield.
