Miles Beyond - "A Call to Odin" |
Out from the frozen north we come to conquer all We will never rest until our enemies fall Be you Saxon be you Celt we don't care Whoever's in our way must beware No one can stop us, so don't even try Those who oppose us will surely die With our iron swords and our shields Plundering villages we do as we feel Whether on foot or on horse You can't escape the men called Norse Our Viking hearts are black and frozen And this is a call, a call to Odin Our long boats have arrived on your shore Carrying Nordic warriors, the likes of Thor Your men will be slaughtered and women will be raped Your crops will be burned and your gold we will take We'll conquer this town as we conquered the last Our kingdom is large and our power is vast Our Viking seed is all that will stay To remind you of this horrible day What makes a man a man? Is it the sword that he wields in his hand? Is it fighting the fight of the just and the right? Or is it conquering, pillaging and murdering in the night All of these things I have done For I answered the call of Odin My sword has killed many a man Whether they bargained fought or ran I followed the code to fight and to conquer I invaded and destroyed every foreign shore I took until there was no more If I am wrong my soul will burn But if I am right I want my turn I want what is owed to me at the end of my time I want my resting-place you owe it to me its mine Odin I beseech you let me walk into the Halls of Valhalla |
