One By One

Aeons ago the legends tell we rode onward
Led astray by the northern chaos gods
Calm before the storm we came from the north
Horses roamed in the open landscapes

The scald sang to their kings
Only he who battle wins
The scald sang to their kings
Let the battle be fought to be won

Tremble with fear for the banner of our kings
War now calls heed to the battle
Hear our swords clinging in the wind
Men cast from their saddles horses roar and scream
Descendants of wrath and the kingdoms of fear
The might we possess burn like fire
The will remain in our northern hearts
More scalps to be won - an eye for an eye

Aeons ago the legends tell we rode onward
Led astray by the northern chaos gods
One by one by the northern tribe you fall
One by one, die by the strongest of them all
Still there's only greatness sunged to those who fell
Who battled strong to win these wars
One by one we took your lives

Grey mist swirl across the meadows
Where battles once ruled the steps
Where the ancient armours of bronze
Are buried and corroded by time
Strong were those who won the war
And the legends tell only of wrath
As brothers of the northern tribes
They guarded the borders of chaos
We leave these battlefields ground
Red were the rivers of blood
Unforgotten by the ones
Born of strength and glory

Tremble with fear for the banner of our kings
War now calls heed to the battle
Hear our swords clinging in the wind
Men cast from their saddles horses roar and scream
