The word as written in the cadence is "hapless", and it's used correctly.

At the most recent Gulf Wars a challenge was handed out by HG Patrick 
Michael, General of the Ansteorran Army. Earlier in the day as we 
marched towards the field to contest the first war point, HRM Mahdi 
had given the singular honor of leading the army's march to 
Mooneschadowe's Liondragon Guard. These proud young warriors are 
know far and wide for singing almost everywhere they go and this 
occasion was no different. As we marched they sang a special 
marching cadence that they had written about the LionDragon guard and 
its prowess. As mighty and glorious as this cadence was, it was not 
about Ansteorra or her Army of Heros. So at the end of the day HG 
Patrick Michael approached Mooneschadowe and challenged them to do 
the same for the Ansteorran army as they had done for the LionDragon 
Guard. That evening members of the LionDragon guard lead by Dante 
and Wookie sat down to write a new cadence for the Army. In only one 
evening these warriors came up with what is below. His Majesty and 
His Grace were well pleased I believe, because this new cadence was 
performed every time the Army of Heros marched into battle for the 
rest of the War.

Ansteorran Pride We Bear
(Dante's Cadence)
by Dante du Martelli


Here we go again,
into the fray again.
Marching down the warriors road,
For honor glory and stories told.

Ansteorran pride we bear,
Come and join us if you dare.
Sweeping tides of black and gold,
Our army charges brave and bold.

Though we die today,
We'll slaughter all those in our way.
Holding our banners proud,
Singing our glory loud.

Ansteorran pride we bear,
Come and join us if you dare.
Sweeping tides of black and gold,
Our army charges brave and bold.

For the honor of our king
Swords and helmets now will ring.
Mowing down our hapless foe
Life will end and blood will flow

Ansteorran pride we bear,
Come and join us if you dare.
Sweeping tides of black and gold,
Our army charges brave and bold.

Sable crown is bold and true,
Loyal heros follow through.
We will stand and heed his call,
Our black star will never fall.

Ansteorran pride we bear,
Come and join us if you dare.
Sweeping tides of black and gold,
Our army charges brave and bold.
