Devils of the sea
Raiders of the coast
Vikings from the ice land
Mighty men of war
Searching for the gold
Rushing like a storm
Harbringers of vengeance
Taken by the sword
Thor, dealer of war
Lead us to plunder and glory
Unchain the wind
So the longships may sail
Stand by our side
And we never shall fail
Soar, gods of the north
Lead us to plunder and glory
Across the waves
Your eternal domain
Guide us tonight
To the hall of the slain
We are the lords of destruction, by sword and the flame
Leaving you dead on the shore and then sailing away
Soidiers of odin, we fight
Back from the abyss of time
Sons of the north
Stronger than steel
Is the warrior
No pain and fear
Roaming the sea
We're invincible
Turn of the tide
Into the night
Will you follow us?
The coast is in sight
Standing unite
There's no stopping us!
The city's taken, the gold is seized
The silent victims of war they sleep
Inside the tent the lamps that burn
There is a shadow upon the soul
It is not fear to die or fail
Because I know what awaits beyond
It's like a strange but recurring thought
Coming to me when I lie alone
What if by dawn there's no more to take?
What if by sunset our legend fades
I sip my wine and I close my eyes
And then I dream in the starlit night
In the starlit night
In the starlit night
Light and thunder they won't take my soul
We are vikings, we behold the throne
Women sing of tales of war, up north
Deeds of glory live forevermore
Hunters of the sea
Dragons of the frost
Vikings from the ice land
Mighty men of war
Searching for the gold
Raging like a storm
Metal hammered vengeance
Rising high in blood
Thor, dealer of war
Lead us to plunder and glory
Unchain the wind
So the longships may sail
Stand by our side
And we never shall fail
Soar, gods of the north
Lead us to plunder and glory
Across the waves
Your eternal domain
Guide us tonight
To the hall of the slain
We are the lords of destruction, by sword and the flame
Leaving you dead on the shore and then sailing away
Soidiers of odin, we fight
Back from the abyss of time
Sons of the north
Stronger than steel
Is the warrior
No pain and fear
Roaming the sea
We're invincible
Turn of the tide
Into the night
Will you follow us?
The coast is in sight
Standing unite
There's no stopping us!
