Fire!
Over the sky, I see the hammer
Bright crushing light, strikes up high
Through the storms of fire
Shapes the one-eyed man
Unleash the ancient powers
The wisdom of the gods
The almighty king he came
Through centuries of blood
He rules the realm
The raven, flies again
The king, the king, the king
And the king he came
And hell followed him
He raised his sword
And the sky opened before him
Destruction reign, and the flames
Burning!
Fire!
Over the sky, the night is old
Up in the north, through cold and snow
The praise of winter, one eyed man
And the ravens eye
Sealed his fate
