Runes To My Memory
(专辑: With Oden On Our Side - 2006)
We rode the
rivers of the
Eastern trail, Deep in the
land of the
Rus'. Following the
wind in our sails, And the
rhythm of the
oars. No shelter in this hostile land, Constantly on guard. Ready to fight and defend Our ship 'til the
bitter end. We came under attack, I
received a
deadly wound. A
spear was forced into my back Still I
fought on. When I
am dead, Lay me in a
mound. Raise a
stone for all to see Runes carved to my memory Now here I
lay on the
river bank A
long, long way from home Life is pouring out of me Soon I
will be gone. I
tilt my head to the
side And think of those back home I
see the
river rushing by Like blood runs from my wound. Here I
lie on wet sand, I
will not make it home. I
clinch my sword in my hand, Say farewell to those I
love. When I
am dead, Lay me in a
mound. Place my weapons by my side For the
journey to Hall up high When I
am dead, Lay me in a
mound. Raise a
stone for all to see Runes carved to my memory
