Sails up! We‘re leaving today!
Distant lands are calling
Cowards stay at home, this is a quest of true men
Farewell!
Should we never see again
Weeping women waiving at the pier
When the sky starts cry
But neither rain, nor wind can make us turn around
What‘s decided has to be done
Chorus:
See how the forefathers greet us with northern lights
Bravely towards unknown shores, through raging storms we fight
Faith in the gods, their strenght in our hearts, when lightning strikes
If we die, we‘ll meet again in Valhalla...
If we die the sun will shine again beyond mortal time
In a dream I saw two ravens in the sky
And a verdant land behind;
When we set out feet there, we‘ll burn our fleet...
‘Cause the land is promised to us by gods...
By gods...
May Njord protect us on our way
May the moon light our path
Let our spirits be purified by the ocean‘s breeze
Let the wind!
Tell our legend which ever lasts
When we reach the open sea
Leaving our home behind
The dragondheads are rising
Let the stars be our guides
Chorus:
See how the forefathers greet us with northern lights
Bravely towards unknown shores, through raging storms we fight
Faith in the gods, their strenght in our hearts, when lightning strikes
If we die, the sun will shine again beyond mortal time...
We‘ll meet again in Valhalla!.
