Sailing home on the frozen seas Our faces numb from the winter breeze The ship now heavy with silver and gold Our tale of victory will soon be told Back home with our family and friends Though it seemed we'd never see them again The battle was fierce, but triumph was ours Asgardian gods look down from the stars Around the fire, mead in hand Amongst our families in the northlands Songs are sung, stories are told Of the greatest victory we've ever known... Fight! For victory! Fight! For fame! Fight! For honor! In Odin's name! Raise your weapons! Raise your mead! In the name of Odin... Our brothers bleed! Now again we leave the northland Newly sharpened blades in hand Our ship is ready and our sails are set Unknown lands shall soon be met Family and friends, with tears in their eyes As this could be our final goodbye Songs to sing, stories to tell Of our next triumph, we shall yell... Fight! For victory! Fight! For fame! Fight! For honor! In Odin's name! Raise your weapons! Raise your mead! In the name of Odin... Our brothers bleed! In the distance, the northland shrinks My brethren and I, we raise our drinks... For our families and friends we've left behind... And for the grand treasures we shall find!

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

Brothers, this is our time Into battle, we will ride Einherjar we shall be Valhalla, our destiny Many men will taste our blades This battle field will be their grave We send them to the hall of the slain But not without great agony and pain The gods will watch us fall We now heed Odin's call Under the dim moonlight The valkyries will take their flight Draw your swords for the final time Valkyries take us up to the sky Draw your swords for the final time Tonight is our night to die Our bodies lie on the ground On the battlefield, there is no sound We now go to the hall of the slain But not without great agony and pain The gods watch us fall We now heed Odin's call Under the dim moonlight The valkyries take their flight Draw your swords for the final time Valkyries take us up to the sky Draw your swords for the final time Tonight is our night to die Brothers, it was our time Into battle, we did ride Einherjar, we have become Valhalla, is our home

Thunder rolls Across the skies Mighty Thor Holds his hammer high As his hammer strikes Lightning flashes bright The sky crashes with thunder Hear its roar tonight Jörmungand the sea serpent Bursts from the waters below Thor steadies his feet beneath him And lets his hammer go! For the destiny of the Gods Thor fights on Against unthinkable odds Asgard stands strong The defender of all mankind In Valhalla, Thor belongs Nine steps for all nine worlds Thor still lives on As his hammer strikes Lightning flashes bright The sky crashes with thunder Hear its roar tonight "Drink from this horn," he then said, "But do not drink it slow Lift my cat above you Your true strength you must show" For the destiny of the Gods Thor fights on Against unthinkable odds Asgard stands strong The defender of all mankind In Valhalla, Thor belongs Nine steps for all nine worlds Thor still lives on Thor then met the serpent His knuckles white as snow He grasped his hammer Mjöllnir And delivered the final blow The venom coursing through his veins Nine steps all filled with sorrow This was the death of Thor himself And everyone would know
