Sacrifice to the winds |
|
Sacrifice to Lord Njord - |
|
Pray our sails be full of wind, |
|
Pray the stars fix our course... |
|
|
|
When the sun doth rise |
|
Men, bid ye farewell |
|
To your children and wife - |
|
And come, let's catch the tide! |
|
|
|
To Vinland we sail, |
|
The ocean calls our name! |
|
To Vinland we sail, |
|
To conquest, as is our fate! |
|
|
|
Like monsters at sea, |
|
The waves are a' rising |
|
Threatening to devour |
|
Our dragon-headed prow... |
|
|
|
We lost many a brave |
|
To the depths of the abyss, |
|
We'll miss many a sword |
|
When the battles begin... |
|
|
|
To Vinland we sail, |
|
The ocean calls our name! |
|
To Vinland we sail, |
|
To conquest, as is our fate! |
|
|
|
After long months of brine |
|
And whipped by the winds, |
|
Through the fortress of mist |
|
We beheld land in the East... |
|
|
|
A glad song was on our lips, |
|
Our eyes were alight |
|
With the joy of the few |
|
That have seen certain death, |
|
Laughed in its face |
|
And lived to tell the tale... |
|
|
|
To Vinland we sail, |
|
The ocean calls our name! |
|
To Vinland we sail, |
|
To conquest, as is our fate! |
