The lords have left
Emptied their great halls
They ride to war
Answer the horns call
Blood of my ancients, of lords before
Seeped in crimson of the foes that are no more
Look to the clouds
To the father of the slain
Guide the worthy to the halls of the great
The wolf obeys, but he does not abide
Waiting for the end of days
To see Ragnarok arise
Great lords await him
So he may taste their steel
Sæhrímnir will not suffice
When night will not yield
It’s only sated, By the blood of the fated
Mercy is forsaken
The lords have left
Emptied their great halls
They ride to war
Answer the horns call
Crushing the chieftains, ruled by the sword and law
Raise your lands before you, we tighten our grip even more
Blood of my ancients, many in my line
Conquered all that came before, in battle and in wine
To hear our sagas, to hear the truth
Of victory and bravery, fought for nail and tooth
Fenrir will fear, my fathers and my heirs
Conquered all that came before with bloodshed everywhere
Riding to war
Riding to war
The lords have left
Emptied their great halls
They ride to war
Answer the Horns call
