Mother winter leaves our land 
And opens wide the seas 
The lukewarm breeze does beckon me 
As it whispers through the trees 

It says: Set your sails 
And let me take your ship to foreign shores 
Take farewell of those near you 
And your land of the North! 

The wild cold deep black ocean's waves 
Invites my hungry heart 
Cry not my love I'll return 
Only death can keep us apart 

Oden in the sky up high 
Let the Ravens of yours fly 
To guide us on our sail to foreign shores 
Let your Ravens fly 

The wind blows through my hair 
And fills our sails with hope and pride 
Caress these lines of Oak, wind 
Do not throw us all aside 

The wild cold deep black oceans waves 
As wide as sky above 
Carry us, oh, Gods of sea 
Don't take us down below 

Now approach the shore at dawn 
All is still the light of daybreak is yet to be born 
Clad in morning dew asleep 
The citys walls rise before us men from the seas 

Carrying cold steel at our sides 
No time to lose at sunbirth we attack the city by surprise 
Down the coastlines with the wind we reign 
Men of the North we leave the shores in flames 

Shores In Flames   Shores In Flames 
Shores In Flames   Shores In Flames 

Fire! 

Tor of thunder way up high 
Swing your Hammer that cracks the sky 
Send the wind to fill our sails and take us home 
Guide your sons, us, home 

When the wind cries out my name 
And time [bad word] for me to die 
Then wrap me in my cape 
And lay my sword down at my side 

Then place me on a ship of Oak 
And let it drift with tide 
Let the flames purify my soul 
On its way to hall up high 

Up high 
Up high 
Up high 
Up high 

Fire!
