Nangar Khel - the song

The England-based Polish band called The Poise Rite has released a song about the Nangar Khel incident. Hear it here.

Translated lyrics below (courtesy of this web site), just slightly edited for clarity. All the ###'s stand for swear words, but I know not which ones, unfortunately.

Nangar Khel 2130*
Piosenka z wolnej stopy [Song for the foot soldier(?) -DM]

Mountains, the base,
Father Chaplain
In the shitter, "Kid’s Murderers" on the wall
Trained, armed,
Fear, adrenaline, steroid food, porn DVD

Orders have been given, native people meet their death
Military jailed, the army’s divided
It could have not been me shooting, it could have been you,
Either they’ll get us, or we get them

Genocide, mistake, runaround, two thousand one hundred and thirty...
Civilian crowd, politics

Who had killed whom here? The new shift is going to ask
Two thousand one hundred and thirty above sea level
Three days on patrol
Six months on the mission
Combat formation
The gunner wearing goggles, Arafat style keffiyeh, mortar
Live rounds
Small victorious war
#### fiction

Kevlar helmet, kevlar heart, kevlar head
Buddies dying, mothers crying
Peacekeeping mission

Civilians have been killed, the uniform has been dishonored

Genocide, mistake, runaround

Who’s the victim?
Their children or ours?
Their wives or ours?

Genocide, mistake, runaround
Two thousands one hundred and thirty...

Civilian crowd, politics
Who had killed whom here? The new shift is going to ask

Genocide, mistake, runaround
Two thousand one hundred and thirty...

Civilian crowd, politics
Who had killed whom here? The new shift is going to ask

[Soldiers' choir:]
When I was rotting the #### in jail for half a year, without the verdict
- rotting the #### in jail for half a year without the verdict

The people the #### were surprised, The minister the #### himself was deriding

The people the #### were surprised,
The minister the #### himself was deriding

*Nangar Khel is 2130m above sea level.
