In the skies above the isle
Aces in exile prevail!
From near and far they arrived, joined the force
Ready to serve the Allied command
Sent into training, though they already earned their wings
They were ready to fly, they were fit for the fight
Once in the air, the battle begins
They've proven their worth, now they fly for revenge
Fighter pilots in exile fly over foreign land
To the story be heard, tell of 303rd
Fighter pilots of Poland in the battle of Britain
Guarding the skies of the isle
Even at night, shadows cover the ground
And the fighting goes on from dusk 'til dawn
With the claw of the Reich, with the claw of the eagle
They were ready to fly, they were ready to die
Up in the air, the battle goes on
They've proven their worth, now they have their revenge
Fighter pilots in exile fly over foreign land
Tell their story again, tell of 310
Men from Czechoslovakia in the Battle of Britain
Guarding the skies of the isle
Over the battlefield, brave men long way from home
Few are the chosen ones sent to the sky to die
Over the battlefield, brave men long way from home
Few are the chosen ones sent to the sky to die
Oh fly, it echoes in history
Turning the tide in the heavens above
Fighter pilots in exile fly over foreign land
When the battle has been won, tell of 401
Fighter pilots of Canada in the battle of Britain
Guarding the skies of the isle
On wings of history they turn from home
To live eternally, skybound they roam
In all of history, never before
Was more owed to so few
Fighter pilots in exile!
