Sails up! We're leaving today |
|
Distant lands are calling |
|
Cowards stay at home; this is a quest of true men |
|
Farewell, should we never see again |
|
Weeping women waving at the pier |
|
When the sky starts to cry |
|
But neither rain, nor wind can make us turn around |
|
What's decided, has to be done |
|
See how the forefathers greet, us with northern lights |
|
Bravely towards unknown shores, through raging storms we fight |
|
Faith in the gods, their strength in our hearts, when lightning strikes |
|
If we die, we'll meet again in Valhalla... |
|
In a dream I saw two ravens in the sky |
|
And a verdant land behind |
|
When we set out feet there, we'll burn our fleet |
|
'Cause the land is promised to us by gods |
|
May Njord protect us on our way |
|
May the moon light our path |
|
Let our spirits be purified by the ocean's breeze |
|
Let the wind, tell our legend which ever lasts |
|
When we reach the open sea, leaving our home behind |
|
The Dragonheads are rising, let the stars be our guides |
|
See how the forefathers greet, us with northern lights |
|
Bravely towards unknown shores, through raging storms we fight |
|
Faith in the gods, their strength in our hearts, when lightning strikes |
|
If we die the sun will shine again beyond mortal time |
|
We'll meet again in Valhalla! |
