Serpents And Dragons

(album: The Last Viking - 2020)

Brave Stern
With a sword in his hand
Jutland king
Can't skill withstand
Ormen
So short the way
Drekanum
Arrows having full play

Brave Stern
With a sword in his hand
Jutland king
Can't skill withstand
Ormen
So short the way
Drekanum
Arrows having full play

Serpents and dragons

Falcon eye, courage bright, glory in the fight
Brave warriors will go away
Join the chosen crew
King's men are standing true

Like an erne in the sky, iron wings up high
Long serpents will sail away
Ormen to the front
Meet the coming battle's brunt

First we met as foes
Where Nis in ocean flows
We're riding far, so far

Brave Stern
With a sword in his hand
Jutland king
Can't skill withstand
Ormen
So short the way
Drekanum
Arrows having full play

Serpents and dragons
Serpents and dragons
Serpents and dragons

Through the night, we shall fight, Halland's coast in sight
Brave warriors bashing all day
Join the chosen crew
King's men are standing true

Endlessly, painfully, blood across the sea
Long serpents hunting all day
For, for one and all
For the king, we'll win or fall

Every single fight
With power and with might
We're striking hard, so hard

Brave Stern
With a sword in his hand
Jutland king
Can't skill withstand
Ormen
So short the way
Drekanum
Arrows having full play

Serpents and dragons
Serpents and dragons

On his casque, sword blade rang
Into the sea he sprang
Into the sea, the jutland king
Had now to flee

Upon the waves
His vessel drives
All his brave crew
Had lost their lives

Serpents and dragons
Serpents and dragons

Brave Stern
With a sword in his hand
Jutland king
Can't skill withstand
Ormen
So short the way
Drekanum
Arrows having full play

Serpents and dragons
Into the sea
The Jutland king
Had now to flee
