dragonheads

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 waving at the pier

when the sky starts to cry

but neither rain

nor wind can make us turn around

what's decided

has to be done

see how the forefathers greet

us with northern lights

bravely towards unknown shores

through raging storms we fight

faith in the gods

their strength in our hearts

when lightning strikes

if we die

we'll meet again in valhalla. 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

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 dragonheads are rising

let the stars be our guides

see how the forefathers greet

us with northern lights

bravely towards unknown shores

through raging storms we fight

faith in the gods

their strength in our hearts

when lightning strikes

if we die the sun will shine again beyond mortal time

we'll meet again in valhalla!
