Song | One Rode To Asa Bay |
Artist | Bathory |
Album | Jubileum II |
作词 : Quorthon | |
One man rode the way through the woods | |
Down to Asa bay | |
Where dragon ships had sailed to sea | |
More times than one could say | |
To see with own eyes the wonder | |
People told of from man to man | |
The God of all almightyness | |
Had arrived from a foreign land | |
The rumours told of a man | |
Who had come from the other side the seas | |
Carrying gold cross around neck in chain | |
And spoke in strange tongue of peace | |
He had come with strange men in armour | |
Dressed in purple shirts and lace | |
Smelling not of beer but flowers | |
And with no hair in face | |
And the bold man carrying cross | |
Had told all one of | |
Asa bay The | |
God of all man woman child had come | |
To them all save | |
And to thank | |
Lord of Heaven | |
One should build to | |
God a house | |
And to save one's soul from | |
Hell One should be baptised and say vows | |
A man of pride with the | |
Hammer told new | |
God To build his house on own | |
And spoke loud of the | |
Gods of their fathers | |
Not too long time gone | |
The rumours said the man with a beard like fire | |
And the Hammer in chain | |
By men in armour silenced was and by | |
Their swords was slain | |
Those who did not pay the one coin | |
Of four to man of new | |
God Whipped was twenty and put in chains then locked | |
By their neck to the log (To the log...) | |
And so all of | |
Asa bay did build | |
A house of the cross | |
Every hour of daylight they did sweat | |
Limbs ached because faith does cost | |
And on the day two hundred | |
There it stood white to the sky | |
The house of the | |
God of the cross | |
Big enough to take two dragon ships inside | |
And all of | |
Asa bay did watch | |
The wonder raise to the sky | |
Now must the | |
God of the cross be pleased | |
And satisfied | |
Just outside the circle of the crowd | |
One old man did stand | |
He looked across the waters | |
And blotted the sun out of his eyes with one hand | |
And his old eyes could almost see | |
The dragon ships set sail | |
And his old ears could almost hear | |
Men of great numbers call out | |
Oden's hail | |
And though he did know already | |
Though he turned face towards sky | |
And whispered silent words forgotten | |
Spoken only way up high | |
Now this house of a foreign | |
God does stand | |
Now must they leave us alone | |
Still he heard from somewhere in the woods | |
Old crow of wisdom say ...people of | |
Asa land, it's only just begun... |
