I have been on viking cruises, | |
Taking what they wouldn't give | |
Sacrifice to Njord the master of the waves | |
On which I live | |
Now I found a king to follow, | |
Now I serve the Forked Beard | |
Sven the son of Harald Bluetooth, | |
King of Denmark knows and feared | |
To England our dragons had to ride | |
To help the beaten Aethelred the | |
Picts we must fight | |
And many a hero died that day | |
I raged with bloodlust | |
And I cut their lives away | |
And so we beat them on a field | |
Of gore and bone | |
But there is a price to pay, | |
The English should have known | |
Aethelred, oh Aethelred | |
Your kingdom now is gone | |
The king of Denmark takes your crows, oh you should have known | |
The northern sea he rules, | |
Denmark and England he unites | |
The norsemen rule the waves and king Sven holds all the might | |
The Forked Beard he rules | |
And like the devil we will fight | |
We rule the waves. | |
Fear the vikings pride | |
Hey, hey we are ruling the waves... | |
We burn the churches and the cross | |
The serpents of the crucified, | |
Their lives are at a loss | |
Sven prays to Odin and to Thor | |
The power of the ancient gods | |
Who dwelt here long before | |
And so we hunt those | |
Who have burnt the oak trees down | |
The heathen roots run deep | |
The ancient gods are still around | |
Crucified, oh crucified, | |
You should have known | |
Your time has not yet come | |
And so we burn your houses down | |
The northern sea he rules, | |
Denmark and England he unites | |
The norsemen rule the waves | |
And king Sven holds all the might | |
The Forked Beard he rules | |
And like the devil we will fight | |
We rule the waves. | |
Fear the vikings pride | |
Hey, hey we are ruling the waves... |
