Barking
Here north and nether he's bound And here he dwell Snarling At passing ghosts though he guard The gates of hel They're leaving like a funeral procession on the prowl Behind the hearse of all our hope Their coming may forebode the end of all wee once held high Before us darkness gathers You'll take the high road I'll take the low road Neither sand stays their striding Nor does the dark and deep blue sea Frontlines fell You'll take the high road I'll take the low road Turned to stone by the sunrise Hordes in the distance marching out The gates of hel Graven Under the gathering grime Statues forgrow Fieldstones Before the floodgates of time Wayfarers flow Their marching may grow louder than the thunder in the sky Behind the hearse of all our hope Our footfalls only fade into the distant future far You'll take the high road I'll take the low road Neither sand stays their striding Nor does the dark and deep blue sea Frontlines fell You'll take the high road I'll take the low road Turned to stone by the sunrise Hordes in the distance marching out The gates of hel They're leaving like a funeral procession on the prowl Behind the hearse of all our hope Their coming may forebode the end of all wee once held high Before us darkness gathers You'll take the high road I'll take the low road Neither sand stays their striding Nor does the dark and deep blue sea Frontlines fell You'll take the high road I'll take the low road Turned to stone by the sunrise Hordes in the distance marching out The gates of hel 02. All Heroes Fall
Born out of brotherhood when weapons fell from hand
A law from a higher hall, we must unite the land But now as I look upon it, careworn and forlorn It bleeds for lack of deeps, its leaders lost and banners torn Come from beyond the wall Burning within my hall All heroes fall My godliness decay To thraldom led astray In loneliness I pay Time conquers all When at last the warriors tread the path from hel The heavens fell Just the seeress did foretell All heroes fall Long peace and good pleasure on the mortals I bestow Come horde, I've lost my sword, the ground I stand is set aglow Staring them in the eye Come how to see me die All heroes fall My godliness decay To thraldom led astray In loneliness I pay Time conquers all When a deity could hot withstand the wave Sold for a slave I go alone into my grave All heroes fall My godliness decay To thraldom led astray In loneliness I pay Time conquers all When at last the warriors tread the path from hel The heavens fell Just the seeress did foretell All heroes fall 03. Ragnars Kvæði
Hvørki fekk hann Ragnar kongur
Frið um nátt rógv ella dag Fyrr enn hann hevði knørrin smíða Suður yvir hav Títtir við streingjum berjast dreingir Syngur í oddameingi Klovna taka tvinni skjøldur Ørnin dregur á veingir Deyðir detta dreingir niður á svørðin Frúgv steig inn um snekkjunnar bor Tað mundi ongan vara Orm bar hon í eyga á sær Dóttir Sjúrðar snara Sjúrður frægi var faðir hennar Hann stóð í ormsins blóði Ásla vard hon kallað sjálv Og Brynhild var hennara móðir 04. Garmr
The nightmare netherworld
A blackened flag unfurled And a fast nightfall Winds throughout the wasteland The nightmare nether mind Mistreated and maligned Waits beyond the wall Where lies the helhound the bloodstained, his heart is hate Once he was bound here to guard the gate Helgound, the bloodstained, his game is greed Break for the battle and find your fate The wolven blackguard bide Until the day has died To destroy mankind Longing for the last stand The wolven blackguard rise A fire inside his eyes Malice on his mind He is the helhound, the bloodstained, his heart is hate Once he was bound here to guard the gate Helhound, the bloodstained, his game is greed Break for the battle and find your fate Where lies the helhound the bloodstained, his heart is hate Once he was bound here to guard the gate Helgound, the bloodstained, his game is greed Break for the battle and find your fate 05. Sunset Shore
Weather worn, jagged heart and ragged soul
Wind swept spirit soaring high in the raging gale Tired and torn, treacherous tides across the shoul Rushing stream, your lifeblood, winds through this wintervale In the darkness lingers the afterglow An alleviating light Caught a glimpse of fire on the distant shore In the night Is there land beyond my dreams Underneath a starlit sky This one cannot, so it seems Righteousness restore Sail into the west Until landfall gratify Lay me down to rest On the sunset shore Ages passed, this receding rainbow goal Any quest or journey seeking it foaled to fail It's so far away and so long ago Lives lay buried that shone bright Now the shore is burning into the sky In the night Is there land beyond my dreams Underneath a starlit sky This one cannot, so it seems Righteousness restore Sail into the west Until landfall gratify Lay me down to rest On the sunset shore Long ages passed though no one came Good visions last through hunger and pain Is there land beyond my dreams Underneath a starlit sky This one cannot, so it seems Righteousness restore Sail into the west Until landfall gratify Lay me down to rest On the sunset shore 06. Downhill Drunk
Good times are few and far between
And toilsome times come unforeseen Bards slaving beaten through the grind Life left the minstrel far behind Hard is the work to blaze a trail In the wake of it sometimes I need Heedless horns of mead and ale And a high downhill Leave me, longings, for a while Find me hammered olden style, refill Woes and worries overflow Rein it in and let it go downhill drunk As I was trudging through the sludge Against the gods I held a grudge All unrewarded went my deeds Lost have I track of where this leads High are the odds my fortune fail And myself I may well have mislead Steady streams of mead and ale And a high downhill Leave me, longings, for a while Find me hammered olden style, refill Woes and worries overflow Rein it in and let it go downhill Leave me, longings, for a while Find me hammered olden style, refill Woes and worries overflow Rein it in and let it go downhill Life so far an unfair trial Find me hammered olden style, refill Woes and worries overflow Rein it in and let it go downhill drunk 07. Empire Of The North
By the foot the mountain
My forebears recount Stood a hovel forlorn down by the bay And at the edge of the sky There's a fire as they fly By the misty and magic break of day Home bound To old ground They return from the east in rain and thunder Unconcerned to the north with trade and plunder And so many fell We built mounds where they dwell For the empire of the north Far back east and down south Whisperings, word of mouth They found riches untold from far and wide And on the isle in the lake They left wealt in their wake And a great sense of welldeserved pride Home bound To old ground They return from the east in rain and thunder Unconcerned to the north with trade and plunder And so many fell We built mounds where they dwell For the empire of the north Home bound To old ground They return from the east in rain and thunder Unconcerned to the north with trade and plunder Without grief or guilt For decendants they built Us and empire of the north They return from the east in rain and thunder Unconcerned to the north with trade and plunder And so many fell We built mounds where they dwell For the empire of the north 08. Far From The Worries Of The World
High in the sky whirls the wain from a long gone time of legend
Silently singing the heroes celestial lullaby Far from the world creatures dwell in a realm that was imagined Icons of commonplace ancestral artefacts on high Borealic bellows the north wind bone chilling Frozen calls the edge of the world on all Frigid falls the night on a mortal frostbitten Where she faded fell on the frozen field Reappear wintertime Lore of the lost, beacons of fire Wretched we, borne in rhyme Far from the worries of the world Tales of time persevere Reaching beyond, always inspire Wretched us legends steer Far from the worries of the world Down on the ground mankind falls in a wartorn time of turmoil Desperately crying their futile and final battlecry Close to the world runs the blood and the tears into the dear soil Ailing they wait by the wain for the day it will run dry Southern sun shines blazing, the breeze is blistering Warriors wandered scorching and bone dry sands In the howling wasteland a mortal smoldering Where he burning fell on the flaming field Reappear wintertime Lore of the lost, beacons of fire Wretched we, borne in rhyme Far from the worries of the world Tales of time persevere Reaching beyond, always inspire Wretched us legends steer Far from the worries of the world Reappear wintertime Lore of the lost, beacons of fire Wretched we, borne in rhyme Far from the worries of the world Tales of time persevere Reaching beyond, always inspire Wretched us legends steer Far from the worries of the world 09. King Of Time
Too soon to sail the starry sky
And too late to sail out for new land We walk the fields of mind Sail across the sea of our blind faith Another day Into the deep And in a way These waters Weep for those who dream Of blazing trails Across the line Asleep the sacred stream Bore tribal tales Along the rhine A tale of all our days Will once be the rhyme The stars up in the sky deliver To the king of time We stand upon the endless edge Of eternity each on our own The days that are to come May as well be gone and so we sink Another year Into the deep And in a way These waters Weep for those who dream Of blazing trails Across the line Asleep the sacred stream Bore tribal tales Along the rhine A tale of all our days Will once be the rhyme The stars up in the sky deliver To the king of time Weep for those who dream Of blazing trails Across the line Asleep the sacred stream Bore tribal tales Along the rhine A tale of all our days Will once be the rhyme The stars up in the sky deliver To the king of time 10. Fire And Flame
Disharmony - tolling for our destiny
Standing on the shore Prepare for the war! So discouraging - staving off the suffering When no one else is there You conquer your despair Say its name - and find your aim Death - come give me fame Wielding fire and flame Sowing your pain Scorching giant Victorious shine the gods of the slain From my burning blade Disheartening - smoldering serenity Over throw Unjust My heart has turned to dust So dishonoring - lonely spirits flickering There fell a shooting star Alone somewhere afar Cold and grey - some distant day Death - take me away! Wielding fire and flame Sowing your pain Scorching giant Victorious shine the gods of the slain From my burning blade Say its name - and find your aim Death - come give me fame Wielding fire and flame Sowing your pain Scorching giant Victorious shine the gods of the slain From my burning blade 11. Against The Gods
Long walk of waste
Sad song of days Long foresaw the evil eyes Of our gods Hot meant for me Be they truth or lies Steal away one morning gray along the road Leaves have blown around my throne, my past abode How my reason rage Against the gods Make it sing or make I sigh Make it fall or make it fly Against all odds How I long to feel the love Leave the barren lands above Against the gods To my grave I'll find my way Cross the lonely lands below Void of shame All foundless faith I will glad forgo Ways unfold one morning golden on the road Trees have grown around my throne, my green abode How my reason rage Against the gods Make is sing or make it sigh Make it fall or make it fly Against all odds How I long to feel the love Leave the barren lands above Against the gods Steal away one morning gray along the road Leaves have blown around my throne, my past abode How my reason rage Against the gods Make it sing or make I sigh Make it fall or make it fly Against all odds How I long to feel the love Leave the barren lands above Against the gods 12. Songs Of War
Wanderers under different stars
Of coldhearted ways Embers glow behind their eyes Their fortune flies Far across the great divide Where the lonely creature cried Bitter legend lies in hide In the void, reaching out Resonate the words Of pain and doubt For when hope is all you have To keep the flame alive For when pain is all you feel For your sustained survival For when days have turned so dark That blood is all that's real Think of those who came before And let your sacred steel sing songs of war They stir the blood Of the battlebred Of these lost and ironclad When something bad Risies, rotten to the core Holy faith is but a whore In this wasted endless war In the void, reaching out Resonate the words Of pain and doubt For when hope is all you have To keep the flame alive For when pain is all you feel For your sustained survival For when days have turned so dark That blood is all that's real Think of those who came before And let your sacred steel sing songs of war In the void, reaching out Resonate the words Of pain and doubt For when hope is all you have To keep the flame alive For when pain is all you feel For your sustained survival For when days have turned so dark That blood is all that's real Think of those who came before And let your sacred steel sing songs of war 13. Alvur Kongur
Gevið ljóð og lýðið
Meðan eg gangi í dans Tað vóru ikki frægari saman Enn Álvur og rekkar hans Draga teir sínar sjódrekar Oman úr tøttum neysti Tá stóð fast í knarrar hæli Leyp so fram og goysti Gýltan spora við mín fót eg spenni So temji eg mínar gangarar Tann góða lati eg renna Tað var mín hin fyrsti dreymur Tá ið eg heiman sigldi Logi leikar á øllum teim Ið Álvi kongi fylgdu Tað var mín hin annar dreymur Tá ið eg heima var Allir stoyttust á drekans borð Og duttu so niður í kav Gýltan spora við mín fót eg spenni So temji eg mínar gangarar Tann góða lati eg renna Tólv merkur í reyðargulli Tað skal vera títt Vilt tú, Óðin, æsa kongur Loysa høvur mítt? Tað var reysti Óðin kongur Stoyttist í jørðina niður Tær gevi eg nú, Rókurin svarti Lív og fagran sigur Gýltan spora við mín fót eg spenni So temji eg mínar gangarar Tann góða lati eg renna |
