lyrics
Not so long ago
The 17th of the 2nd month
In a land of ice and snow
Where Norsemen had their hordes
The stars aligned and the moon shone bright
A viking boy was born
Then the first winds blew away,
Straight from Heavenshore
Hearing all these thunderstorms
The world wanted more and more
Blessed with the gift of word,
Guided by the One-eyed one
This raging mountain warrior left his mark on us
...And soon moved on...
On and on
The tale goes on
Of Northern son
Blessed By Fire
x2
As the darkness had returned
The Hammerheart shook like thunder
And the Requiem was burned
Then the Octagon emerged
And with blood on ice
From the Northern Skies
Came the Destroyer of Worlds
With sword and strings at hand,
A lonely poets chant
Through the skies it flew,
Like a storm it grew
And set freedom to the two Nordlands
As the Gods of Hall up High
Wishes great men by their side
They so proudly called, highest reward
And led by the heart you into glory ride!
On and on
The tale goes on
Of Northern son
Blessed By Fire
X2
Fly away, as nature calls
Journey safe into the halls
...Hear your songs!
On and on
The tale goes on
Of Northern son
Blessed By Fire
X2
