We came sailing to meet unknown land
What we seek, we only demand
For glory and gold we have come
Every man would have to succumb
'Cross the vast sea our future awaits
Today, christ's church will see its last date
Our swords and our shields soon will be stained
With the blood of his men as they lay slain
Up the hills of christ's holy ground
To take treasures and lives all abound
Lindisfarne, land of fools
Now the grounds where norse gods will rule
Hræsvelgr's wings guiding our sails
With the wind at our backs we shall prevail
The hammer of thor hangs at our necks
Mjöllnir is our most sacred object
Through our battles týr shows us the way
With the gods on our sides any beast we could slay
The allfather's wisdom is our greatest strength
Any battle we'll win, no matter the length
Long is our quest for glory and gold
Lindisfarne's treasures soon we shall hold
Our journey continues for day and for night
Raise up your swords and charge into the fight
At full speed we crash into the shore
Lindisfarne's raid will become of our lore
Our minds and our hearts are filled with pride
For victory and honor we will ride
Up the hills of christ's holy ground
To take treasures and lives all abound
Lindisfarne, land of fools
Now the grounds where norse gods will rule
Hræsvelgr's wings guiding our sails
With the wind at our backs we shall prevail
The hammer of thor hangs at our necks
Mjöllnir is our most sacred object
Through our battles týr shows us the way
With the gods on our sides any beast we could slay
The allfather's wisdom is our greatest strength
Any battle we'll win, no matter the length
