Ares, unswerving ally of warriors,
swift is your sword-arm, steady your gaze.
In war-craft and instinct, in victory
at any cost, in strength from within,
in comradeship and in blind battle-rage,
in these we know your power, grear war-god.
Ares, passionate one, the knowledge
of bodies is yours, familiar you are
with blood and pain, with the cost of success;
we thank you for needed savagery,
for understanding of the worth of life.
Solid Ares, we praise and honor you.
