The golden roofs of Miklagard I see you shining in the sun My destiny lies within these walls Oh Miklagard The golden roofs of Miklagard I see you shining in the sun My destiny lies within these walls Oh Miklagard I saw you in my fever dreams Mighty walls of shining grace From a different world it seems A golden glimmer on my face Across the lands across the sea I've travelled far I will succeed Now I am passing through your gate Within these walls there lies my fate The golden roofs of Miklagard I see you shining in the sun My destiny lies within these walls Oh Miklagard Palaces of gold and stone The riches of the world for trade A harbour larger than the fjords at home A city that the gods have made From the lands of ice I came To Miklagard for honour and fame One of the emperor's guard to be Varangian truth for all to see The golden roofs of Miklagard I see you shining in the sun My destiny lies within these walls Oh Miklagard
