Over Dead Man (Vinland Edition)
There is a great mound not far away
And I go there every single day
I need to hear what my forbearers say
I need their guidance to lead the way
I feel my plight(?) and embrace it
I sometimes look down into a spring
I see my forefathers reflecting
I feel the weight of the song they sing
And strive for labour and suffering
The burden's mine and I face it
Kin and cattle, they all die(?)
You shall also perish
Only one thing never dies
Judgement over dead man
Bear your plight with faith and pride
The land is yours to cherish
Hark and hear the raven cries
Judgement over dead man
Allfather takes and allfather gives
To some enough to just barely live
To others plenty and unto me
He has bestowed a great legacy
And I shall never neglect it
It is my fate and my right of birth
My blood is bound to this frozen earth
It is a loan from those before me
And from my son who shall one day be
The one to guard and protect it
Kin and cattle, they all die(?)
You shall also perish
Only one thing never dies
Judgement over dead man
Bear your plight with faith and pride
The land is yours to cherish
Hark and hear the raven cries
Judgement over dead man
The weight of the burden on the shoulders of mine
I bear with a light heart for future bloodlines
Kin and cattle, they we all die(?)
You shall also perish
Only one thing never dies
Judgement over dead man
Bear your plight with faith and pride
The land is yours to cherish
Hark and hear the raven cries
Judgement over dead man
Judgement over dead man
And I go there every single day
I need to hear what my forbearers say
I need their guidance to lead the way
I feel my plight(?) and embrace it
I sometimes look down into a spring
I see my forefathers reflecting
I feel the weight of the song they sing
And strive for labour and suffering
The burden's mine and I face it
Kin and cattle, they all die(?)
You shall also perish
Only one thing never dies
Judgement over dead man
Bear your plight with faith and pride
The land is yours to cherish
Hark and hear the raven cries
Judgement over dead man
Allfather takes and allfather gives
To some enough to just barely live
To others plenty and unto me
He has bestowed a great legacy
And I shall never neglect it
It is my fate and my right of birth
My blood is bound to this frozen earth
It is a loan from those before me
And from my son who shall one day be
The one to guard and protect it
Kin and cattle, they all die(?)
You shall also perish
Only one thing never dies
Judgement over dead man
Bear your plight with faith and pride
The land is yours to cherish
Hark and hear the raven cries
Judgement over dead man
The weight of the burden on the shoulders of mine
I bear with a light heart for future bloodlines
Kin and cattle, they we all die(?)
You shall also perish
Only one thing never dies
Judgement over dead man
Bear your plight with faith and pride
The land is yours to cherish
Hark and hear the raven cries
Judgement over dead man
Judgement over dead man
