1000 years ago a Viking ship
Left Norway in the spring Tiden er kommet Tiden vil vise The saga of Vinland A safa of Norsemen The new world they found they called Vinland The Land of Wine Stormen forte skipet Vestover mot ukjent land 02. Farewell Proud Men
Look above into the misty air
I hear the waves reminding me of fear I'm not alone but still I am confused Will you return and will your dreams come true? Across the sea into shallow water long ships' sails and sweeping oars To walk the shores of a new land To serve the shores of golden sand Across the sea into shallow water long ships' sails and sweeping oars To walk the shore of a new land To serve the shores of golden sand Farewell proud men Spirits will guide you May they save you Farewell proud men Frightening ocean sacred as the wind I beg you please be careful with these men At night I dream of wonders and of change Will I receive a message from you then? Across the sea into shallow water long ships' sails and sweeping oars To walk the shores of a new land To serve the shores of golden sand Across the sea into shallow water long ships' sails and sweeping oars To walk the shore of a new land To serve the shores of golden sand Farewell proud men Spirits will guide you May they save you Farewell proud men Far way from our own home Show me a future Open the palace door And I will follow you Farewell proud men Spirits will guide you May they save you Farewell proud men Farewell proud men Spirits will guide you May they save you Farewell proud men 03. Elegy
Teardrop on a fragile eyelash
She's looking like a dream Hoping for some understanding And answer or at least Cunning word a single sentence To restore her heart Aching since the day I left her Crossing lonely seas Silent tears of a woman Make a warrior cry Heaven, I beg you Please release hopes from fears This is my elegy Do you know what I feel? This is my elegy Do you believe it's real? Will I hold you in my arms again? Dewdrops on a single rosebud This purity of rain Reminds me of the moment I left her Kisses filled with pain And if I should leave her waiting For another year Will she ever know the answer? Will she follow me? Silent tears of a woman Make her warrior cry Heaven, I beg you Please release hopes from fears This is my elegy Do you know what I feel? This is my elegy Do you believe it's real? Will I hold you in my arms.. Hold you in my arms again? Cunning word, a single sentence To restore her heart Aching since the day I left her Crossing lonely seas 04. Solemn Sea
Seil den sterke sjo
Solen har gatt end I det vide havet I det morke dypet Hviler en drom Om et ukjent land The music of your heartbeat brightens me Turn my fears into hope Oceans of blue Darkening sky the shadows fall Foaming waves shatter us I cry aloud to the sky Solemn sea save me Solemn sea save me Watch and wait for the next Attacking waves, ice cold rain The black mirror of the sea Watching me, save me The humming of the waves frightens me Turn my fears into hope Oceans of blue A thunder storm roars at me My body shakes in the rain Lightening rays spearing me A thousand spears haunting me 05. Leaves' Eyes
Summer goes, winter comes
Leaves fall on frozen grounds True love lasts forever I imagine you in a thousand glimpses Moonlight you keep me safe at night And I know you're here if I'd fall Seasons change Spirits wake up Birds fly away to far-away homes True love lasts forever I imagine you in a thousand glimpses Moonlight you keep me safe at night And I know you're here if I'd fall Starlight show me the way in the dark And I know you're here when I call Leaves' Eyes Leaves' Eyes Children grow up Parents grow old Man's wives become mothers to sons Sunna hides, mani glows Stars are watching over us Moonlight you keep me safe at night And I know you're here if I'd fall Starlight show me the way in the dark And I know you're here when I call 06. The Thorn
I hope that he will be safe
Hopefully return in April I've heard the winds speak of a fight And it hit my heart like a thorn Whispering voices appear I can't escape what I feel All I can see All I believe Is connected to our kindred souls I feel the thorn in my flesh The pounding of blood in my/your head I/you cry aloud I/you cry of anger My/your enemy will never forget me/you I heard you calling my name I saw your colourless face Fire in your eyes Where do you go to? I dreamt of an enemy threatening you I feel the thorn in my flesh The pounding of blood in my/your head I/you cry aloud I/you cry of anger My/your enemy will never forget me/you I feel the thorn in my flesh The pounding of blood in my/your head I/you cry aloud I/you cry of anger My/your enemy will never forget me/you Hold me Breathe with me Until the end of time I feel the thorn in my flesh The pounding of blood in my/your head I/you cry aloud I/you cry of anger My/your enemy will never forget me/you I feel the thorn in my flesh The pounding of blood in my/your head I/you cry aloud I/you cry of anger My/your enemy will never forget me/you 07. Misseri (Turn Green Meadows into Grey)
Morning awakes
Night is drifting away Winter's approaching Time to go or stay I see migrants travelling To a far-away world Reflected in black waters and you Turn green meadows into grey Can you feel the winter waiting? Ice-cold rivers turn to blue Can you see the jewel shining? Fire burning in my eyes It warms my hands when I'm alone There's no one here to hold me tight Rain patters against my window Or is he knocking at the door? Memories are growing stronger and you Golden leaves under my shoes Gathering birds in the sky May I go with them Let me fly to you Let me fly to you And be safe 09. New Found Land
You, fall, love
Beyond the boundaries of the known world Where are the mountains and where are the fjords Hundreds of miles off the course we are lost Clear skies return as we witness the shore We sail the sea We fight the storm One hundred men caught by endless passion Adenture Norse Men A hunting eye One hundred men on a holy mission My arms are tired and my feet are cold Hoping for shelter and hungry for food My eyes see fire, a gift from the gods What will we find at the end of the world We sail the sea We fight the storm One hundred men caught by endless passion Adventure Norse Men A hunting eye One hundred men on a holy mission We have found new land We set sail for Greenland As we crossed the oceans Awaiting the Midgard serpent We finally found a new world We sail the sea We fight the storm One hundred men caught by endless passion Adventure Norse Men A hunting eye One hundred men on a holy mission We have found new land I see new found land 10. Mourning Tree
So far away, but still so close
So many days I've had to count The meaning of life comes true when I'm with you For in me there's a flower growing Tell him through the winds I am here Whisper through the breeze not to fear Taste it by the rain what I feel when you hold me Reach out for the winds that we share Then you will feel I am near Taste it by the snow, I am here where you left me I told to the mourning tree The long way home is never too far Unless you've reached the end of life My deepest wish comes true when I'm with you For in me there's a miracle growing Tell him through the winds I am here Whisper through the breeze not to fear Taste it by the rain what I feel when you hold me Reach out for the winds that we share Then you will feel I am near Taste it by the snow, I am here where you left me I told to the mourning tree Tell him through the winds I am here Whisper through the breeze not to fear Taste it by the rain what I feel when you hold me Reach out for the winds that we share Then you will feel I am near Taste it by the snow, I am here where you left me I told to the mourning tree 11. Twilight Sun
Spring is calling, time to leave
The winds have told me she's waiting for me Hear the tune Of northern winds Twilight sun Will soon be gone Guide me twilight sun I will follow you home Earth is awakening The grass is green The rivers sing She's calling for me Shivering leaves Songs of home Twilight sun Will soon be gone Guide me twilight sun I will follow you home Twilight sun Will soon be gone Guide me twilight sun I will follow you home For you I will return If you don't return, I will leave a message for you carved in stone Twilight sun Will soon be gone Guide me twilight sun I will follow you home I will follow you home Twilight sun Will soon be gone Guide me twilight sun I will follow you home I will follow you home 12. Ankomst
I glitrende solskin
Et landskap som våkner Vi seiler inn mot havnen Hjem til deg i dine armer En historie å fortelle Ankomst ankomst gi meg havn Ankomst ankomst åpne din favn La dine sorger hvile i havet Et sted mellom nord og sør Vinden synger de evige toner En sage å fortelle |
