Jag har länge vandrat på denna stig Jag har sett hednars och kristnas krig Jag har stolt vandrat vidare Jag har varit en ensam krigare Skogen verkade vara ändlös Skogen som aldrig skulle bli Lurad av vite krists hyckleri Nu verkar skogen vara döende Skövlad av goda män i blindo Förblindade av en falsk gud Nu när ni överlämnat oss Till prästers galenskap Vi inte längre får slåss Vi är fast i fångenskap Men vi ger aldrig upp Vi skall kämpa för vår tro Ty valkyria till Odin oss tar Vår allsmäktige enögde far |

1. | Raven Eyes | 03:37 | Show lyrics |
Black shapes cross the sky Once guardians of the pagan kingdom Christian men took our land But they did not take our pride Ravens wont give you any blame ’Cause no words shall be said They will just rip out your eyes And eat your precious heart Raven eyes watch from the sky You better stay in the shadows You better stay unseen Crusaders of the cross rape the pagan land A father and his son watch the troops Knights in shining armour and horses to carry their gold "Oh, please father, let me be a christian knight" Crusaders of the cross rape the pagan land A raven and his son watch from above Wimps in womens clothing and mules to carry their shit "Oh, please father, let me rip their (fucking) eyes out" |

3. | Set Sail to Plunder | 04:22 | Show lyrics |
A viking and his warriors built a dragonship They’re going out to conquer a feeble land Heavily armed with swords, axes and shields The swedes set sail for weaker ground Chanting hymns of Tyr, of Odin and of Thor A viking shall but win, berserker deep inside The warriors spotted land, treasure hunt is at hand Nobodys life will remain when they leave this shattered ground Without any fear, they walked in from the shore Mead is in the vikings to bring rageous attack Take them all, slay them all spare just one One to tell the story about a storming inferno Men from the north brought despair to the foreign land Treasure they now have to bring back home Villages were harmed and burnt, but vikings got their goods All the gold and treasures found their way to Sweden One should have seen how they crushed all their foes No damn warning for the pitiful scums They died within minutes when the great warriors came Children were drowned and women were raped Oh, how the lust of the vikings was great All their enemies met such a dreadful fate Smoke is rising to the sky, the village lies deserted Footsteps in the ashes, the only memory of the vikings raid The only sound that is heard is from vikings counting gold Not a single child in the village lived to grow old |

4. | Ur askan ett rike | 03:04 | Show lyrics |
Norden hon stod, vacker och stolt en gång i en annan tid Heligt blod flöt igenom hennes hud och släckte hennes törst Norden hon ligger, förkastad och förnekad i vår kristna nutid En ny tid stundade och förslavad hon blev Strypt av den svage med sitt kors Ur askan av vårt hednaland, vi reser oss och igen: Hans tro mot svärdets makt Ur askan ett rike Tig och lyd du kristne fan Ned på knä och be Oden länge i vrede stått Men nu skall örnar få mat Den kristnes tro är nu ett minne blott Och örnar sin föda fått Lammet har svultit och finns ej mer En framtid i det förgångna vi nu ser I segertåg vi vandrar med Oden först Hon har återfått sin törst |

5. | Celebration of Our Victory | 04:43 | Show lyrics |
Torn and bloody our clothes they are As we march home from a battle afar Victorious we were, the raven’s were with us A glorious triumph was reached by dusk We drink our mead in the light of the funeral pyre Just as the flames, our cups are raised higher and higher We drink to our brothers who in this battle have fallen We hail thee, whom the god’s have callen Back in the village my woman awaits me The fairest of women with a flaming desire Her grace is to be seen by none but me My scarred heart is burning like fire Tonight is the night of viking’s celebration A celebration of our glorious victory A victory that was surely not our first And certainly not the last |
|||
6. | A Burning Arrow | 02:50 | Show lyrics |
A burning arrow flew towards the sky To symbolize the fierce ones To manifest their pride Torches glows and axemen sings their rhyme Eternal damnation for bastard souls The lust for blood are spread among our lines All you can hear, a thousands battlecry Our pagan force make blood run down their spines The fury in our minds burns like Hel tonight The ground below are shaking As we burst on through the night Thor swing thine hammer In your honour we will fight |
|||
7. | En döende mans förbannelse | 03:34 | Show lyrics |
Med sargad kropp, men en själ så stark Jag ligger på frusen mark Snön färgas sakta röd, ett sista tecken på min död "Kloka korpar skall klösa dina ögon, när i höga galgen du hänger" Du min baneman, ditt namn jag känner Död mans förbannelse dig aldrig lämnar Ett sista sätt att hämnas "Norves dotter, dig skall sluka Nattens fasor du skall lida" Frusen och döende jag ligger i snön Jag förbannar din usla själ Nornor hör mig, låt min baneman få lida Underjordens alla smärtor |

9. | Wotan’s Fire | 04:32 | Show lyrics |
The fire that burns in the hall of the slain Is the wrath of the speargod himself The allseing father God of gods, for wisdom he gave his eye Betrayers will burn, betrayers will die His light will never fade Deny your origins, deny your belief And die by the everlasting fire... Chorus: His fire is stronger than steel You can try to save your empire Your wounds will never heal Try to run from Wotan’s fire Tyrfing’s blade will reach you all And slay the ones in our way We are the army of the north The army of pride Which is never to fall The call of the gods are our call into war And we will stay and fight We bring the fire of metal, we bring the fire of hate So die by Wotan’s fire |

10. | Going Berserk | 05:09 | Show lyrics |
Heated by the strongest of mead my blood is boiling There exists no fear in a berserker in battle Oh, how sweet my enemy is recoiling His brothers have abandoned him They’re running like cattle Chorus: Going berserk - as I rush into battle Going berserk - as I feel the smell of blood Going berserk - as I crush your skull Going berserk - I am high on death All my foes are terrified by the hatred in my eyes For me this is passion and lust For them it is nought but fear All realize my might, i a berserker born of fire and ice As they go against me they know they’ll never meet their dear |

1. | Prelude: Heading for the Golden Hall / Storms of Asgard | 07:25 | Show lyrics |
Prelude: Heading for The Golden Hall With the cold northern wind we travel We’re on a journey of a lifetime And we’ll fight many battles on our way We’ll trample the bodies of the dead as we travel We’ll go on ‘til the day we die And reach our destination: The golden gates of Valhalla! Lyrics: Väänäänen Music: Löf Storms of Asgard A desolate aeon has passed since the demise of our crown A tragic end which made hecates and predictors wail But dragons still sleep tranquil in proud heathen hearts At first they came wearing their most innocent masques Telling vikings vague stories about a nazarene whelp While keeping their swords drawn behind their backs Chorus: Storms of Asgard Engulf the unfaithful Storms of Asgard Reclaim your throne They spread their odius thorns all over northern soil Some unfaithful sheeps swore allegiance to them But some rather died Their craving and megalomania became too much Raping northern soil before pagan eyes spawned hate There where great battles but the outcome were not The pagans volcanic wrath is still alive in our hearts And the white veil which still covers us Will be torn apart Repeat chorus Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Löf/Lindgren/Vintras |

2. | From Wilderness Came Death | 04:56 | Show lyrics |
Screams in the night woke the whole village up Their cattle is getting attacked The fences are broken and blood everywhere Horses are lying there slack Fenrir divided, a horde of greywolves His power inside of them all Feasting on the guts of both stallions and goats No animal in there stands tall The people were struck by terror and fear While beasts intruded their ground Like the flow of a storm that none can control Cascades of blood in the pound Spears were thrown at the raging wolfhorde So hard to select them all out (in the night) Running with bloodied fangs and fierce eyes It sure doesn’t help much to shout In from wilderness came death Wolves in the pound!!! Setting some torches on fire might scare But will them beasts disappear? The scene turns real grim when the creatures change course Grotesque, exploding fear Thirtythree persons in spite with the wolves So hungry and dangerous Only much later when the sun rises One can count the loss The horrible fur-beasts defeated ’em all And the yard was a bloody mess A village of death, Fenrir’s cold work Of entrails, bones and flesh The people they fought in vain for their farm Wolven hunger got fed After this night of terror and pain All the humans were dead In from wilderness came death Blood on the ground!!! Lyrics: Sjölund Music: Lindgren/Löf |

3. | Askans rike | 04:29 | Show lyrics |
Askans rike Över nordmäns stormande grav Klagar den enögdes blick På himlen Tor ilsken rasar Under korset slav Åskgudens fader, vässa ditt spjut Höj baneklingan ännu en gång Bryt ulvens kätting Vilan är över, Väntan är slut Fenris, jaga honom, följ hans spår Fäders motvind har mojnat När hans boning blivit ruin I korsets aska vi en ny gröda sår I bränd mark finnes den bördigaste jord Humle och malt skall slå rot I ditt kadaver Förgör, den eviga fienden till hednisk hord Askans rike ur blodshämnd föds Höj era horn I en skål mina fränder Ulven fann sitt byte ännu en gång På strupen syntes märken Från asars händer och vargars tänder Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Lindgren/Löf |

4. | Valdr Galga | 04:39 | Show lyrics |
Valdr Galga I know that I hung in this tree All of nights nine Wounded by the spear, given to myself Enlightened I’ll become No horn they upheld, nor handed me bread I looked below me, aloud I cried Caught up the runes, caught them up wailing Then to the ground I fell again I know that I hung in this tree All of nights nine Wounded by the spear, given to myself Enlightened I’ll become From the son of Bolthorn, Bestla’s father I mastered mighty songs nine And a drink I had from the strongest mead Got out from Óthraerir Yggdrasil must abide More than to men is known The hart browsing above, it’s bark rotting And Nidhogg gnawing beneath Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Lindgren/Löf |

5. | The Deceitful | 04:40 | Show lyrics |
The Deceitful Distrust rules in Asgards heart Farbautes son is spinning his web With laughter, lies and malicous acts Infecting our divine paradise But we can not kill you, we are bound as we cry A sign of death before Ragnarök arrives! "So Höder, why don’t they let you shoot at your brother? Here, take this arrow, I’ll help you aim..." Chorus: Loke - spawned by giants you came to us Deceitful - if we can not trust you, who can we trust? Your outrages are many, with that we must live As your stepbrother I must you forgive Your children will haunt us, and we will them meet In the final battle, when you sail your fleet On the flaming sea, you stand in the stern Still you are laughing, in the fire you must burn! "So Tyr, where is your right hand? Seems like Fenris still has it between his jaws..." Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Lindgren/Löf |

6. | Arising | 05:12 | Show lyrics |
Arising I would wake warriors great Summon warriors of the oak High as a pine in the forest Summon those who sleep Wake those beneath the grass Buried deep under fields Under sacrificial graves In the burning earth Carve runes upon the horns Stain them red with blood We mumble our spells and sing our hymns Filled with lust we drink The mead so pure and strong Proffered by smiling maidens We praise the taste on our tongue Mead blessed for us by Odin Chorus: My father he has promised That glorious I’ll become Standing high in the stern Steering the ship so worthy Slained in battle I rise again Brought to life by a heathen spell The sea was my home, I ruled the waves Without fearing my death Arising from the realm Where the dead are screaming in vain Bring forth the day And I’ll fight by your side Born here in northern land My vision’s been clear since long ago My heart will bleed as I walk upon earth My fate lies here, carved in stone I’m surrounded by fires I behold this fearsome night I was born as a wolf But raised as a human Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Löf/Lindgren |

7. | Firever | 03:00 | Show lyrics |
Firever Crawling shadow Nighttime abomination Beyond daylight lurking Hiding from the sun And he who mist breath Is the ghost of my time The soul of my kindred The blood in my veins In flesh he was mighty An enigma yet real He was a fierce slayer Feared by those not insane Warrior... Utter usurpation of foreign shores Axemaster and berserker without remorse Warrior... The might and courage he possesed Are in treason times qualities opressed Firever... Underworld dweller Arise and tyrannize Thyrfing warmongers Wants you warlike again Descend Let the air fill your lungs Your prevail is my victory New tales are to be told New tales carved in stones Tales spawned by enemy blood A fire deep within Fire forever Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Löf/Lindgren |

8. | A Moment in Valhalla | 04:55 | Show lyrics |
A Moment in Valhalla Horns raised and filled with the finest of mead Valhalla’s warriors battle succeed The lodge so enormous, so many in here Valkyries serve us the best flesh and beer Forever we’ll sit here, to eat and drink well All of us heathens on a battlefield fell Our death went divine to Valhalla came Another brave name for the golden hall’s fame Inside the great lodge where delight does stream A beautiful valkyrie in every man’s dream "Woman come over here and sit on my knee! In the great sky tonight you will see Up there I’ll show you the mighty starsign The shape of Thyrfing trapped in time That sword my life once before took But now in Valhalla, tonight we will fuck!" Chorus: Where delight is streaming Fallen warriors gleaming Soon we’ll be there in the goldenmost hey Crawling around each other ‘til the very next day Eight hundred voices in a drunken chant Some dance around the tables, stand straight they can’t Throats are getting wet, throats are getting dry There’s a lot of mead in the horns raised high The feast goes on forever, for ages it will last We’re all getting glorified, thinking about our past Repeat chorus Lyrics: Sjölund Music: Sjölund/Löf/Vintras |

9. | Mimer’s Well | 04:40 | Show lyrics |
Mimer’s Well In the dawn of time, when Ymer lived There was no sand, nor sea or waves There was no earth, there was no heaven An endless abyss, gasping like a wolf Before the sons of Bor Raised the lands to the sky The ones who Midgard created The sun shone upon stones The grass was left untouched And the earth slept in peace Pre-chorus: "I know it all, where you hid your eye Down in Mimer’s well He drinks your mead, your source of wisdom He is drinking of your blood" Chorus: The well won’t dry out as long as I live I can promise you But the sun will never shine over worlds nine The final battle awaits In the shape of an eagle, I flew And I drank of Kvasir’s blood I created, I enlightened But what is left today? From Hlidskjalf I behold I watch over you nine worlds I remember In ancient times, giants spawned But what is left untouched? Repeat pre-chorus Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Löf/Lindgren |

A Great Man’s Return Under Norve’s starfilled sky In a forest so deep and wide Eight hooves are thundering By the mountains darkest side In the shadows two grey shapes Hungry stalking their prey A long time has passed Since they went away Pre-chorus: This is the call for a great man’s return Longing for the old age, let this world burn I yearn for retribution, I want fields stained red Odin show us that you’re not dead Chorus: Northern king... return Follow the path we make, longer for every day Warlord... return Your eyes in the sky will show you the way Northern king... return We will be waiting, thousands and thousands of men Warlord... return Together we will drink, fight, die and live again Under Norve’s starfilled sky In a heathen forest deep and wide Sleipner calm is standing With Odin by his side By his feet two wolves are lying Feeding and resting in the night A long time will pass Until bloodred snow becomes white Repeat pre-chorus Repeat chorus Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Lindgren/Löf |

Ett tecken för Svearikets styrka En symbol för svunnen prakt Enande för oss som funnit nordens sanna styrka Enande för oss som ärar svunnen makt Den kraftiga åska du bringar Buren av guden som färdas av bockar dragen Och när han Hrungners död svingar då ekar de mäktiga hammarslagen Chorus 1: Du som skapar det mäktigaste av dån Du som dräpte Jordens gördel Du som svingas av Jordens son Du som äro tursars bödel Ett vapen av stål som aldrig ger vika Talet kring din styrka känns oändligt Vi din anda aldrig kunnat svika Heimdalls söner dig bär ständigt Även nu då mången förlust är liden Vi bär dig, av Sindre smiden På bröstet vi dig stolt skall bära Evigt trotsande världslig fara Chorus 2: På bröstet vi dig stolt skall bära Evigt trotsande världslig fara Vi som nordens sanna ande ära Vi som en dag till Valhall fara Du, som Baldersbålet helgade Du, som krossade de som Odens son vredgade |

När stormen som knäckte draken ven den piskande blåst som pryglat askens gren Allfader då från högsätet sig reste "Mer dryck i hornet" han ilsket vreste Långt bortom Midgårds berg och dalar skyddade från stormen i gyllene salar Allfader plötsligt tömmer välfyllt krus tvinnar skägget fundersamt i behagligt rus Chorus: Låt dryckeskvädet eka i forna gudars ära Drick ur, inte tveka, i minnet jag er bära Bortom långbänk, i guldsmyckat säte hörs korpakrax och ett mullrande läte Av vakna ögon fem blott fyra skarpt nu ser Allfader i drömvärlden jättar hugger ner Tystnaden nu härskar i druckna hjältars hem gryningen och slaget ger död, sen liv igen När afton åter stundat och striden den är slut Allfader för sina kämpar utbringar en salut |

3. | Sweoland Conqueror | 06:29 | Show lyrics |
In primordial times, when Ginnungagap empty stared Before Ymers death, before our triumphant dominion There was nothing No sea, no waves No earth, no heaven A frostcovered stone created Bure, father of Bur, Bestlas husband Bestla, daughter of Böltorn And mother of three Oden, Vile and Ve Ymer’s assassins, Svears creators Chorus: Oden - spirit and life you gave Vile - intellect was your gift Ve - completed the heathen warrior And Sweoland sets sail to plunder With will as strong as the heart of Hrungner They sat the world ablaze Usurpers of Ethelreds british isles Conquerors of western Frankia And crushers of Irish strongholds The flesh of a giant bears the mark of their tribe And his blood carried them forth to glory "Never before has such terror appeared as we now have suffered from a pagan race" "Nor was it thought possible that such an inroad from the sea could be made" Repeat chorus "Shrines were desecrated Ornaments were plundered The bodies of saints were trampled The blood of priests was spilled" |

4. | Home Again | 07:44 | Show lyrics |
The long, hard years at sea, have taken their toll on me For thirteen winters and a spring, I have been so far away So far, far away from the place I call home A place so beautiful, it’s where I want to die Have you ever seen the rivers of Nyfors? Or the majestic view at the mountains of Brevik? Tyresö, you have left a mark in my heart Home... I am coming home again As I think of home, the memories burn inside of me Does my son still remember me? Does his mother recall how life used to be? Will she ever recognize this grey and scarred old man? Will I ever see her smile again? Will she meet me at the shore when my ship comes in? Mother Svea, you have left a mark in my heart So I am coming home again For home and kindred I have sailed so far For home and kindred I am coming home again |

5. | The Breaking of Serenity | 04:27 | Show lyrics |
Welcome to plunge into this storm Where warlords ride, and kill with pride The smell of rage, this ancient hate That has been in wait Before the torture took my soul and the night turned black like the darkest hole Before the wolves learned to howl Chorus: Open the time where bloodbeasts lurk, break serenity Feel the ancient fury, smell the air of undead breath Can you sense the torture, the knowledge of ending days? Do you hear the sound of nearby death? Taste the ultimate of pain Struck me, ripped out every trace of life Elves and valkyries scream my name out loud This has been in wait Before the torture took my soul and the night turned black like the darkest hole Before the wolves learned to howl Repeat chorus Come on, let’s join the chaosstorm Unleash your sword and face the sky Can you see the reflections of a burning world? Can you see the souls of those who died? |

In the filth of your failure, still suppresive The overlord’s standing supreme Wounded through time, still it’s breeding Your beckon call ignored Not of the divine, still it’s drinking your wine A parasites’ vanquish in the light You are the well that waters his hatred Upon your sins he is feeding The sins you made when Adam got laid Your life is a bitch because Eve got paid ...and the truth shall set you free... Liar This blade I give to thee I put my trust in you Deep in you May your blood keep it warm Liar The ways of the parasite not for your eyes to see As your icon withers Odin carries the prophecy Fire forever |

9. | The Slumber of Yesteryears | 03:47 | Show lyrics |
Yesterday never died - it just went into hiding It lies slumbering at the bottom of a deep, dark lake Hidden in the woods of my time There was no path to follow, but I found my way I had been lost for long Forlorn in the woods I knew so well I didn’t quite know what I was looking for But still I found it - or did it find me? I couldn’t see a way to this place But from where I stand now I can see it all. I can see how bright the stars shine at night. I can see how the sun wakes life from it’s slumber And I see how the snow cradles it back to sleep again. I see my way back home but I never want to leave this place. |

Slutligen föll jag på kämpavallen men sorgen varar ej hos en krigare fallen Som föda åt korparna jag föll men svärdet mitt i handen jag höll Valkyriors vackra skepnader jag såg då jag döende i mitt sårsvett låg Striden väldig blev mitt fall Till Valfader urgammal jag nu färdas skall Härfader, Valfader, in i salen mig bjuder Enhärjarskarans skålar i Valhall ljuder Kommen var min sista jordedag Nu är blott väntan på det sista av slag Min död på fältet var ond och bråd och nu berättar jag om månget hjältedåd Var dag får vi på gården kämpa aldrig bliva gammal, aldrig lida av en ålders krämpa |

11. | Urkraft | 07:36 | Show lyrics |
En stärkande känsla som håller anden vid liv Som överlever nornornas alla nycker En kraft som segrar över alla fiender Den slumrar i dina blodsband, men finns där kvar Ett naturens väsen, själens bärande stomme En förnimmelse från förr, i arv från våra förfäder En ymnigt strömmande styrka, lika gammal som tiden själv En odödlig energi, som i naturen frodas i varje levande fors och sjö, i varje mäktig ek och reslig gran Stilla den andas, lugnt och starkt men ett vaket sinne ser och hör, hur den väcker själaminnen I glömska den ligger, men ger givmilt när du är redo att ta emot Redo att väcka din ande till liv Dess källa är outsinlig, evig och öppen åt alla som bär den inom sig Låt den ej för evigt sova! Känn dess återkomst, likt något som saknats En del av den du är, ett kall från ditt blod Känn ditt arv, och hur nordens själ flyter genom dina ådror Ett fåtal är vi som urkraften minnes Evigt styrkta av en flamma som aldrig slocknar Världen är höljd i mörker men nordstjärnan leder oss till slaget på Vigrids slätt |

Aldrig skall ålder förtvina eller sätta sina spår Ni ska dit varken sol eller måne når Där sång blir till klagan och skratt blir till gråt Där smärta är evig och dagar är år Där honungen blir till salt i era sår Nastrands ormar som spyr ert er etter Skört är slottet men stark är min ruin Kräla ur min boning, lämna min gård ”Av asar och alfer som här inne äro Ingen i ord är din vän” Likstrandens ormar som spyr blod och etter Ni som blint trampar Draugs harg På knä i Eljudne mottag död mans dom Mot död och helsvite, erat öde och pinoplats Bärsärkargång mot de dödas helgedom Hammare och stål skall urkraften väcka I björnskorta mot Draugs harg Må nidingapestens veka nacke knäckas ”Hrungners dråpare skall dig till dödsriket skicka Långt under likgrinden ned” Mot död och helsvite, erat öde och pinoplats Långt under likgrinden ned Draugs harg, långt under likgrinden ned --------------------------------------------------------- English Translation: Draugr’s Altar Never will age wither or make its markings You are going where neither sun nor moon can reach Where song turns into lamentation and laughter into tears Where pain is eternal and days are years Where honey turns into salt in your wounds Nastrand’s worms who vomit out venom The castle is fragile but my ruin is strong Crawl from my dwelling, leave my homestead ”Of the Aesir and Elves who dwell in here No one is your kinsman” The Corpse Shore’s worms who vomit blood and venom You who blindly trample Draugr’s altars On your knees in Eljudne, receive a dead man’s judgement Towards death and hell, your fate and place of torment Berserkergang against the dead’s sanctuary Hammer and steel shall awaken the ancient power Bear-shirt (literal meaning of berserk) against Draugr’s altar May the nithing pole’s weak neck be broken "Hrugnir’s slayer will send you to the Kingdom of the Dead Far below the Gates of Death, deep down" Towards death and hell, your fate and place of torment Draugr’s altar!

Blått, grått, grönt för ögat Världsspegeln, dit längtans vingar bär En fröjd att skåda, att sinnet öppna Flyende sot på svarta vingar far Om natten, stormen och vinden Molnfria vyers inre horisont ler En öppning i stormen den ser En öppning i stormen den ser En lockelse inte bara på ytan Inte endast en färd, utan även ett mål Vad väntar mig under systrar nio? Vad döljer Rans döttrar för mig? [Chorus:] Här skall jag finna min ro Här skall jag finna min sinnesfrid Här skall jag för evigt vila och i Ägirs djupa salar min ångest begrava Ett sista offer för Njord Ett sista blot för välgång på färden En hemlighet som skall bli min Ingen ånger, vad böljorna giva [Repeat chorus] ----------------------------------------------- English Translation: The Mirror of the World Blue, grey, green for the eye The Mirror of the World, whereto the wings of longing carry A joy to behold, to open one’s mind Flying disease on black wings go In the night, the storm and wind Cloudless skies’ inner horizon smiles An opening in the storm it sees An opening in the storm it sees A temptation, not only on the surface Not just a journey, but a destination too What awaits me below the nine sisters? What are the Daughters of Ran hiding from me? [Chorus:] Here I shall find my peace Here I shall find my peace of mind Here I shall forever rest And bury my angst in the deep halls of Aegir One last sacrifice for Njord One last blót for the voyage’s success One secret which shall be mine No regret, what the waves will give [Repeat chorus] |

To be blessed by an ocean Takes it’s pain and sacrifice To reach where I am destined Takes an old man’s life With blood I soak my idols With Pride I set my sails I scan the furthest horizon For the shores I am aimed to find Mountains and caves of ice Yet a new land to find The voyager to be In the search for an own empire Onward towards the dark sea Set sail along with the serpent Anchor where none has been Face whatever our fears might be I fight the storms, the rain, the thunder I am my own navigator Exhaust, hunger thirst and blood Dragons bringing me forth Who could forsee That the sea was so dark Down here in my grave Ends a young mans life True men die in battle To feast ’til the last of days But down here in my grave My roaring won’t be heard |

5. | Ångestens högborg | 07:03 | Show lyrics |
I en kvalmfylld, andlig öken har jag sett dem gå Drabbade av själasoten, håglösa, med ilska i synen Det är som sorgen aldrig skulle lämna deras ögon Som om sinnet hade svartnat för evigt Sammanträngda på ytor små Lager på lager (i boningar grå) i ångestens högborg Under jorden hastar de – jagande sökande; ingenting finnande Varför stannar de aldrig upp? Innan ni er fredliga gömma finner I susande lundar tvingas även ni till vila Inte en stilla undran – en rasande fråga; Varför stannar ni aldrig upp? Oändligt upplyst – för alltid höljd i mörker Inga stjärnor ser jag lysa här Vilka skalder dikta i denna dimma? Vilka målare sina verk här färgar? Oändligt upplyst – för alltid höljd i mörker Vilka målare sina verk här färgar? ------------------------------------------------------------ English Translation: The Stronghold of Angst In a suffocating, spiritual desert I have seen them wander Struck by the soul-plague, listless, with anger in their gazes It is as if sorrow would never leave their eyes As if the mind had been blackened forever Compressed into small spaces Layer upon layer (in gray dwellings) in the stronghold of angst Below the ground they hurry - hunting, searching; finding nothing Why don’t they ever stop going? Before you find your peaceful hideouts In murmuring groves even you are forced to rest Not a calm wondering – a furious question: Why don’t you ever stop going? Endlessly enlightened – forever wrapped in darkness No stars do I see shining here What bards would write in this fog? What painters would colour their works here? Endlessly enlightened – forever wrapped in darkness No stars do I see shining here What painters would colour their works here? |

I live in the mountain hall deep under the earth Where Odin’s eye never has seen I hate the white aesir and the sons of earth Those who bow to gods, those whom I despise I enjoy nocturnal storms I tramp the grain of the fields I break the keels, I mislead the wanderer I enjoy when he fears (When the giant laughs) I can stand the day bright as it shines When valkyries wave their bloodred wings Oh, now beautiful the raven’s flight Above the battlefield And the sword chills a human heart Why to be innocent Daughter of Embla? Behold in the beast’s embrace The flower has withered Why are you fighting for your land Youth of the north? They sold your father’s grave for the perry gold [Lyrics inspired by the poem "Jätten", Esaias Tegnér (1782-1846)] |

Irrgång... själavrak Orörlig, ända far jag fram Förlist i illviljans hav ------------------------------------------------------- English Translation: Soul-wreck Whipped by the self-contempt, poisoned to the root Torn and broken, the lust of life lost Still stranded... disgusting Something pulsates deeps within the soul, it speaks to me The will that adheres, the ember that never dies out [Chorus:] Labyrinth, labyrinth... Soul-wreck, soul-wreck Labyrinth, labyrinth... Soul-wreck, soul-wreck Distorted, billowing memories fade Inner visions’ whirlwinds subside A reality is slowly torn down Like decayed, sinking drift-wood I’m slowly lowered down... down Down to the mocking insight of the abyss But the answer disappeared before me The years pass, but the feeling remains The serious fact of emptiness The dead range of hollowness [Repeat chorus] Immobile, tied tighly Still I walk around in the maze of the brain... Labyrinth, labyrinth... Soul-wreck, soul-wreck Immobile, still I walk around Wrecked in the ill-willed sea |

Avlade i mörker och köld Inga goda väsen välsignade vår vagga Ett kainsmärke bränt i vårt kött Ensamhet är vår följesvän Ett öga till Mimer, en hand i ulvens käft Riv gammal fästning, ge plats åt ny borg Vägen till visdom, en smärtsam väg Vaknade, lidande, klarhet [Chorus:] Vårt öde beseglas når vi glömmer vårt kall Själars vinter, ljusets fall Djupt ner i jorden görs urbergets sång Elddagjämning, vedergällning, undergång Våra sår i brand, de av värsta sort Himlen rämnar, liv rycks bort Djupt ner i jorden görs urbergets sång Elddagjämning, vedergällning, undergång En otyglad urkraft, en glödande runa Thurisaz, symbolen for jättesläkt Katharsis, en rening där krafter födas Fjättrad i bojor sen urtid, sen eon Pulserande magma, en skärseldslåga Likt världssträdet trånar mot skyn Den vilda kraften, som världen skapat Kaos, mörker, transformation [Repeat chorus] ----------------------------------------------------------------- English Translation: Fire Equinox Bred in darkness and cold No good beings blessed our cradle A mark of Cain burnt into our flesh Loneliness is our companion An eye for Mimer, a hand in the jaws of wolf Demolish old fortress, make room for new fort The road to wisdom, a path of pain Awakening, suffering, clarity [Chorus:] Our destiny is sealed when we forget our calling The winter of souls, the fall of light Deep down in the earth the ancient mountain makes its music Fire Equinox, revenge, downfall Our wounds alot, those of the worst kind The sky is opening, life is snatched away Deep down in the earth the ancient mountain makes its music Fire Equinox, revenge, downfall An untamed ancient power, a glowing rune Thurisaz, the symbol for the race of Giants Catharsis, a purification where powers are born Shackled in chains since ancient times, since Aeon Pulsating magma, a purgatory flame Like the World tree yearns for the sky The wild power, which the world created Chaos, darkness, transformation [Repeat chorus] |

Världens oskuld vilar tryggt på det vigda bålet Allt som andas, allt som sörjt ryser i plötslig kyla Blodröd sjunker solen, fjällens skuggor växa Och högt i askens krona susar tidens höst [Chorus:] Vi har samlats här i sluten ring Kring en likblek gud som om livet bragts När dagen lida mot sitt slut Skall flammor stiga mot himlens fäste I sorgens timma på sorgens dag, stiger fadern fram En fridlös fasas verop, som ur dvala facklan höjs Ett sinne tyngt av kvalfull kvidan, en gåta utan svar När stormen stämmor ekat ut, vad viskas till den döde? [Repeat chorus] Det som ingen trott, det som inget vetat Fann den vise, vad han fjärran letat? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- English Translation: The Pyre of Baldir The world’s innocence rests safely on the dedicated pyre Everything that breathes, everything that has mourned shivers in sudden cold Blood-red the sun sets, the shadows of the mountains grow And high in the crown of the ash the fall of time soughs We have gathered here in a closed ring Around a deathly pale god as if life had burst When the day passes to its end Flames will rise towards the sky In the hour of sorrow on the day of sorrow, the father steps forward The lamentation of a peaceless horror, as if from lethargy the torch is raised A mind burdened by agonizing wailing, a riddle without an answer When the voices of the storm have echoed out, what is whispered to the dead one? [Repeat chorus] What no one had believed, what no one had known Did the wise one find what he had searched for far and wide? |

Primae Nocte on Virgin thoughts Tomorrow falls for the scythe of yesterday But no arrow can take down Munin [Pre-chorus:] On the future’s beheaded corpse A formerly splendid empire is enthroned An empire whose ghosts rule the acts of today With the blade to my throat they steer my gaze [Chorus:] Time drags itself along with cut-off heel-strings The same clouds cover the same sky Armed are past horrors Armed are past horrors The same murderer waits around the same corner The snow that fell last year Still remains on the ground The dawning sun’s weak beams are futilely struggling Against the Nifelheim of memories [Repeat pre-chorus] [Repeat chorus] The aftertaste of existance is bitter When remembrance has Hel as its mistress Morn, Tope and Otale hold court Angry lords with grudgeful minds |

1. | En sista litania | 07:10 | Show lyrics |
Ett tusende år av hat att regna likt ett livselixir När nidingars band har upplösts När urgammal jord har kluvits itu Varde blod, varde eld, varde död Den brännande solens skördegång fäller regent, i högmod krönt Den vredgade jordens fauna störtar dess narr, smyckad i guld Varde blod, varde eld, varde död En sista litania ekar högt vid de skamlösas härd Märkta, plågade och brända mottaren sista, glödgad fällande dom Från blodsbestrukna strupar Från askgrånade händer Djupt ur ruttnande märg Mot etterdränkta famnar Varde blod, varde eld, varde död En marritt mot tidig skymning, en invit till nattens sista dans När balen är över, plågas gäster i middagshettan med bly i sitt bröst Varde blod, varde eld, varde död I ett högstämt kätteri smädas nu de arvlösas lott En trehövdad död för dörren Varde blod, varde eld, varde död Varde liv, varde död [Lyrics by: Lindgren] [Music by: Sjölund, Rydén, Löf] |

3. | Isolation | 05:54 | Show lyrics |
Isolation, the breaking of bonds, a distant beckoning. Isolation! Salvation, the womb of rebirth foul and sickening. Salvation! When friend and enemy consolidate covenants are broken, treachery erases all if it ever was. A deception that wrecked the idols layed cities waste and brought sanctuaries to desolation. Isolation found its offering and consumed all abundant and old, with a nucleus burnt our fate is forseen. The sufferer fell with fiends and altered amongst shades, he became his own people. Isolation, the breaking of bonds, a distant beckoning. Isolation! Salvation, the womb of rebirth foul and sickening. Isolation! The antagonist needs not yeld nor answer or follow, yet them of abhor became his rulers. By emnity forced to embrace plauges and pestilence, forced to walk in contrary to heralds. The cure should be simple, find the core and smoke it out. Seek the heart and putrid flesh shall preach no more. When the bridge collapsed upon your sons and daughters, whatever awaits is welcomed with open arms. Isolation, salvation! Isolation, the breaking of bonds, a distant beckoning. Salvation, the womb of rebirth foul and sickening. |

Ärren som skimrar i glödande rött belyser vårt samvetes pina och kval När sårens svett har torkat ur jord, tynar den börda som sinnet har tyngt Bort i en osande, dödslik stank, i det bråddjup där guld har försakats Det köttsliga skal som rasar i virvlar, i en avgrund att skriva vår sista epilog Av skammen, så länge de tärts Nu störtas den värsta av plågor I världsalltets ättestupa Ur tiden, mot lindring och nåd Ett aktat slut för de nu utlevade Vid hemsökta klippors gapande svalg Ett vördat slut för de lidande väntar vid fullbordad gryning Aldrig mer ska frånfällets klinga vaktas av deras febriga blod Ej mer stungen av bitande stål och lämnad vind för våg Lyd, du skälvande kreatur Med kaos i rygg du ingenting räds Mot förgängelse du vaggas i slumrande takt Med min dolk i din rygg, omfamna ditt fördärv Av skammen, så länge de tärts Nu störtas den värsta av plågor I världsalltets ättestupa Ur tiden, mot lindring och nåd [Lyrics by: Lindgren] [Music by: Lindgren, Löf] |

A viking and his warriors built a dragonship They’re going out to conquer a feeble land Heavily armed with swords, axes and shields The swedes set sail for weaker ground Chanting hymns of Tyr, of Odin and of Thor A viking shall but win, berserker deep inside The warriors spotted land, treasure hunt is at hand Nobodys life will remain when they leave this shattered ground Without any fear, they walked in from the shore Mead is in the vikings to bring rageous attack Take them all, slay them all spare just one One to tell the story about a storming inferno Men from the north brought despair to the foreign land Treasure they now have to bring back home Villages were harmed and burnt, but vikings got their goods All the gold and treasures found their way to Sweden One should have seen how they crushed all their foes No damn warning for the pitiful scums They died within minutes when the great warriors came Children were drowned and women were raped Oh, how the lust of the vikings was great All their enemies met such a dreadful fate Smoke is rising to the sky, the village lies deserted Footsteps in the ashes, the only memory of the vikings raid The only sound that is heard is from vikings counting gold Not a single child in the village lived to grow old |

Torn and bloody our clothes they are As we march home from a battle afar Victorious we were, the raven’s were with us A glorious triumph was reached by dusk We drink our mead in the light of the funeral pyre Just as the flames, our cups are raised higher and higher We drink to our brothers who in this battle have fallen We hail thee, whom the god’s have callen Back in the village my woman awaits me The fairest of women with a flaming desire Her grace is to be seen by none but me My scarred heart is burning like fire Tonight is the night of viking’s celebration A celebration of our glorious victory A victory that was surely not our first And certainly not the last |

A viking and his warriors built a dragonship They’re going out to conquer a feeble land Heavily armed with swords, axes and shields The swedes set sail for weaker ground Chanting hymns of Tyr, of Odin and of Thor A viking shall but win, berserker deep inside The warriors spotted land, treasure hunt is at hand Nobodys life will remain when they leave this shattered ground Without any fear, they walked in from the shore Mead is in the vikings to bring rageous attack Take them all, slay them all spare just one One to tell the story about a storming inferno Men from the north brought despair to the foreign land Treasure they now have to bring back home Villages were harmed and burnt, but vikings got their goods All the gold and treasures found their way to Sweden One should have seen how they crushed all their foes No damn warning for the pitiful scums They died within minutes when the great warriors came Children were drowned and women were raped Oh, how the lust of the vikings was great All their enemies met such a dreadful fate Smoke is rising to the sky, the village lies deserted Footsteps in the ashes, the only memory of the vikings raid The only sound that is heard is from vikings counting gold Not a single child in the village lived to grow old |

Torn and bloody our clothes they are As we march home from a battle afar Victorious we were, the raven’s were with us A glorious triumph was reached by dusk We drink our mead in the light of the funeral pyre Just as the flames, our cups are raised higher and higher We drink to our brothers who in this battle have fallen We hail thee, whom the god’s have callen Back in the village my woman awaits me The fairest of women with a flaming desire Her grace is to be seen by none but me My scarred heart is burning like fire Tonight is the night of viking’s celebration A celebration of our glorious victory A victory that was surely not our first And certainly not the last |

1. | Prelude: Heading for the Golden Hall / Storms of Asgard | 07:25 | Show lyrics |
Prelude: Heading for The Golden Hall With the cold northern wind we travel We’re on a journey of a lifetime And we’ll fight many battles on our way We’ll trample the bodies of the dead as we travel We’ll go on ‘til the day we die And reach our destination: The golden gates of Valhalla! Lyrics: Väänäänen Music: Löf Storms of Asgard A desolate aeon has passed since the demise of our crown A tragic end which made hecates and predictors wail But dragons still sleep tranquil in proud heathen hearts At first they came wearing their most innocent masques Telling vikings vague stories about a nazarene whelp While keeping their swords drawn behind their backs Chorus: Storms of Asgard Engulf the unfaithful Storms of Asgard Reclaim your throne They spread their odius thorns all over northern soil Some unfaithful sheeps swore allegiance to them But some rather died Their craving and megalomania became too much Raping northern soil before pagan eyes spawned hate There where great battles but the outcome were not The pagans volcanic wrath is still alive in our hearts And the white veil which still covers us Will be torn apart Repeat chorus Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Löf/Lindgren/Vintras |

2. | From Wilderness Came Death | 04:56 | Show lyrics |
Screams in the night woke the whole village up Their cattle is getting attacked The fences are broken and blood everywhere Horses are lying there slack Fenrir divided, a horde of greywolves His power inside of them all Feasting on the guts of both stallions and goats No animal in there stands tall The people were struck by terror and fear While beasts intruded their ground Like the flow of a storm that none can control Cascades of blood in the pound Spears were thrown at the raging wolfhorde So hard to select them all out (in the night) Running with bloodied fangs and fierce eyes It sure doesn’t help much to shout In from wilderness came death Wolves in the pound!!! Setting some torches on fire might scare But will them beasts disappear? The scene turns real grim when the creatures change course Grotesque, exploding fear Thirtythree persons in spite with the wolves So hungry and dangerous Only much later when the sun rises One can count the loss The horrible fur-beasts defeated ’em all And the yard was a bloody mess A village of death, Fenrir’s cold work Of entrails, bones and flesh The people they fought in vain for their farm Wolven hunger got fed After this night of terror and pain All the humans were dead In from wilderness came death Blood on the ground!!!

The Deceitful Distrust rules in Asgards heart Farbautes son is spinning his web With laughter, lies and malicous acts Infecting our divine paradise But we can not kill you, we are bound as we cry A sign of death before Ragnarök arrives! "So Höder, why don’t they let you shoot at your brother? Here, take this arrow, I’ll help you aim..." Chorus: Loke - spawned by giants you came to us Deceitful - if we can not trust you, who can we trust? Your outrages are many, with that we must live As your stepbrother I must you forgive Your children will haunt us, and we will them meet In the final battle, when you sail your fleet On the flaming sea, you stand in the stern Still you are laughing, in the fire you must burn! "So Tyr, where is your right hand? Seems like Fenris still has it between his jaws..." Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Lindgren/Löf |

A desolate aeon has passed since the demise of our crown A tragic end which made hecates and predictors wail But dragons still sleep tranquil in proud heathen hearts At first they came wearing their most innocent masques Telling vikings vague stories about a nazarene whelp While keeping their swords drawn behind their backs Chorus: Storms of Asgard Engulf the unfaithful Storms of Asgard Reclaim your throne They spread their odius thorns all over northern soil Some unfaithful sheeps swore allegiance to them But some rather died Their craving and megalomania became too much Raping northern soil before pagan eyes spawned hate There where great battles but the outcome were not The pagans volcanic wrath is still alive in our hearts And the white veil which still covers us Will be torn apart Repeat chorus Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Löf/Lindgren/Vintras |

Screams in the night woke the whole village up Their cattle is getting attacked The fences are broken and blood everywhere Horses are lying there slack Fenrir divided, a horde of greywolves His power inside of them all Feasting on the guts of both stallions and goats No animal in there stands tall The people were struck by terror and fear While beasts intruded their ground Like the flow of a storm that none can control Cascades of blood in the pound Spears were thrown at the raging wolfhorde So hard to select them all out (in the night) Running with bloodied fangs and fierce eyes It sure doesn’t help much to shout In from wilderness came death Wolves in the pound!!! Setting some torches on fire might scare But will them beasts disappear? The scene turns real grim when the creatures change course Grotesque, exploding fear Thirtythree persons in spite with the wolves So hungry and dangerous Only much later when the sun rises One can count the loss The horrible fur-beasts defeated ’em all And the yard was a bloody mess A village of death, Fenrir’s cold work Of entrails, bones and flesh The people they fought in vain for their farm Wolven hunger got fed After this night of terror and pain All the humans were dead In from wilderness came death Blood on the ground!!! Lyrics: Sjölund Music: Lindgren/Löf |

Askans rike Över nordmäns stormande grav Klagar den enögdes blick På himlen Tor ilsken rasar Under korset slav Åskgudens fader, vässa ditt spjut Höj baneklingan ännu en gång Bryt ulvens kätting Vilan är över, Väntan är slut Fenris, jaga honom, följ hans spår Fäders motvind har mojnat När hans boning blivit ruin I korsets aska vi en ny gröda sår I bränd mark finnes den bördigaste jord Humle och malt skall slå rot I ditt kadaver Förgör, den eviga fienden till hednisk hord Askans rike ur blodshämnd föds Höj era horn I en skål mina fränder Ulven fann sitt byte ännu en gång På strupen syntes märken Från asars händer och vargars tänder Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Lindgren/Löf |

Valdr Galga I know that I hung in this tree All of nights nine Wounded by the spear, given to myself Enlightened I’ll become No horn they upheld, nor handed me bread I looked below me, aloud I cried Caught up the runes, caught them up wailing Then to the ground I fell again I know that I hung in this tree All of nights nine Wounded by the spear, given to myself Enlightened I’ll become From the son of Bolthorn, Bestla’s father I mastered mighty songs nine And a drink I had from the strongest mead Got out from Óthraerir Yggdrasil must abide More than to men is known The hart browsing above, it’s bark rotting And Nidhogg gnawing beneath Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Lindgren/Löf |

The Deceitful Distrust rules in Asgards heart Farbautes son is spinning his web With laughter, lies and malicous acts Infecting our divine paradise But we can not kill you, we are bound as we cry A sign of death before Ragnarök arrives! "So Höder, why don’t they let you shoot at your brother? Here, take this arrow, I’ll help you aim..." Chorus: Loke - spawned by giants you came to us Deceitful - if we can not trust you, who can we trust? Your outrages are many, with that we must live As your stepbrother I must you forgive Your children will haunt us, and we will them meet In the final battle, when you sail your fleet On the flaming sea, you stand in the stern Still you are laughing, in the fire you must burn! "So Tyr, where is your right hand? Seems like Fenris still has it between his jaws..." Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Lindgren/Löf |

Arising I would wake warriors great Summon warriors of the oak High as a pine in the forest Summon those who sleep Wake those beneath the grass Buried deep under fields Under sacrificial graves In the burning earth Carve runes upon the horns Stain them red with blood We mumble our spells and sing our hymns Filled with lust we drink The mead so pure and strong Proffered by smiling maidens We praise the taste on our tongue Mead blessed for us by Odin Chorus: My father he has promised That glorious I’ll become Standing high in the stern Steering the ship so worthy Slained in battle I rise again Brought to life by a heathen spell The sea was my home, I ruled the waves Without fearing my death Arising from the realm Where the dead are screaming in vain Bring forth the day And I’ll fight by your side Born here in northern land My vision’s been clear since long ago My heart will bleed as I walk upon earth My fate lies here, carved in stone I’m surrounded by fires I behold this fearsome night I was born as a wolf But raised as a human Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Löf/Lindgren |

In the great sky tonight you will see Up there I’ll show you the mighty starsign The shape of Thyrfing trapped in time That sword my life once before took But now in Valhalla, tonight we will fuck!" Chorus: Where delight is streaming Fallen warriors gleaming Soon we’ll be there in the goldenmost hey Crawling around each other ‘til the very next day Eight hundred voices in a drunken chant Some dance around the tables, stand straight they can’t Throats are getting wet, throats are getting dry There’s a lot of mead in the horns raised high The feast goes on forever, for ages it will last We’re all getting glorified, thinking about our past Repeat chorus Lyrics: Sjölund Music: Sjölund/Löf/Vintras |

From Hlidskjalf I behold I watch over you nine worlds I remember In ancient times, giants spawned But what is left untouched? Repeat pre-chorus Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Löf/Lindgren |

A desolate aeon has passed since the demise of our crown A tragic end which made hecates and predictors wail But dragons still sleep tranquil in proud heathen hearts At first they came wearing their most innocent masques Telling vikings vague stories about a nazarene whelp While keeping their swords drawn behind their backs Chorus: Storms of Asgard Engulf the unfaithful Storms of Asgard Reclaim your throne They spread their odius thorns all over northern soil Some unfaithful sheeps swore allegiance to them But some rather died Their craving and megalomania became too much Raping northern soil before pagan eyes spawned hate There where great battles but the outcome were not The pagans volcanic wrath is still alive in our hearts And the white veil which still covers us Will be torn apart Repeat chorus Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Löf/Lindgren/Vintras |

Screams in the night woke the whole village up Their cattle is getting attacked The fences are broken and blood everywhere Horses are lying there slack Fenrir divided, a horde of greywolves His power inside of them all Feasting on the guts of both stallions and goats No animal in there stands tall The people were struck by terror and fear While beasts intruded their ground Like the flow of a storm that none can control Cascades of blood in the pound Spears were thrown at the raging wolfhorde So hard to select them all out (in the night) Running with bloodied fangs and fierce eyes It sure doesn’t help much to shout In from wilderness came death Wolves in the pound!!! Setting some torches on fire might scare But will them beasts disappear? The scene turns real grim when the creatures change course Grotesque, exploding fear Thirtythree persons in spite with the wolves So hungry and dangerous Only much later when the sun rises One can count the loss The horrible fur-beasts defeated ’em all And the yard was a bloody mess A village of death, Fenrir’s cold work Of entrails, bones and flesh The people they fought in vain for their farm Wolven hunger got fed After this night of terror and pain All the humans were dead In from wilderness came death Blood on the ground!!! Lyrics: Sjölund Music: Lindgren/Löf |

Askans rike Över nordmäns stormande grav Klagar den enögdes blick På himlen Tor ilsken rasar Under korset slav Åskgudens fader, vässa ditt spjut Höj baneklingan ännu en gång Bryt ulvens kätting Vilan är över, Väntan är slut Fenris, jaga honom, följ hans spår Fäders motvind har mojnat När hans boning blivit ruin I korsets aska vi en ny gröda sår I bränd mark finnes den bördigaste jord Humle och malt skall slå rot I ditt kadaver Förgör, den eviga fienden till hednisk hord Askans rike ur blodshämnd föds Höj era horn I en skål mina fränder Ulven fann sitt byte ännu en gång På strupen syntes märken Från asars händer och vargars tänder Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Lindgren/Löf |

Valdr Galga I know that I hung in this tree All of nights nine Wounded by the spear, given to myself Enlightened I’ll become No horn they upheld, nor handed me bread I looked below me, aloud I cried Caught up the runes, caught them up wailing Then to the ground I fell again I know that I hung in this tree All of nights nine Wounded by the spear, given to myself Enlightened I’ll become From the son of Bolthorn, Bestla’s father I mastered mighty songs nine And a drink I had from the strongest mead Got out from Óthraerir Yggdrasil must abide More than to men is known The hart browsing above, it’s bark rotting And Nidhogg gnawing beneath Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Lindgren/Löf |

5. | The Deceitful | 04:40 | Show lyrics |
The Deceitful Distrust rules in Asgards heart Farbautes son is spinning his web With laughter, lies and malicous acts Infecting our divine paradise But we can not kill you, we are bound as we cry A sign of death before Ragnarök arrives! "So Höder, why don’t they let you shoot at your brother? Here, take this arrow, I’ll help you aim..." Chorus: Loke - spawned by giants you came to us Deceitful - if we can not trust you, who can we trust? Your outrages are many, with that we must live As your stepbrother I must you forgive Your children will haunt us, and we will them meet In the final battle, when you sail your fleet On the flaming sea, you stand in the stern Still you are laughing, in the fire you must burn! "So Tyr, where is your right hand? Seems like Fenris still has it between his jaws..." Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Lindgren/Löf |

Arising I would wake warriors great Summon warriors of the oak High as a pine in the forest Summon those who sleep Wake those beneath the grass Buried deep under fields Under sacrificial graves In the burning earth Carve runes upon the horns Stain them red with blood We mumble our spells and sing our hymns Filled with lust we drink The mead so pure and strong Proffered by smiling maidens We praise the taste on our tongue Mead blessed for us by Odin Chorus: My father he has promised That glorious I’ll become Standing high in the stern Steering the ship so worthy Slained in battle I rise again Brought to life by a heathen spell The sea was my home, I ruled the waves Without fearing my death Arising from the realm Where the dead are screaming in vain Bring forth the day And I’ll fight by your side Born here in northern land My vision’s been clear since long ago My heart will bleed as I walk upon earth My fate lies here, carved in stone I’m surrounded by fires I behold this fearsome night I was born as a wolf But raised as a human Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Löf/Lindgren |

In the great sky tonight you will see Up there I’ll show you the mighty starsign The shape of Thyrfing trapped in time That sword my life once before took But now in Valhalla, tonight we will fuck!" Chorus: Where delight is streaming Fallen warriors gleaming Soon we’ll be there in the goldenmost hey Crawling around each other ‘til the very next day Eight hundred voices in a drunken chant Some dance around the tables, stand straight they can’t Throats are getting wet, throats are getting dry There’s a lot of mead in the horns raised high The feast goes on forever, for ages it will last We’re all getting glorified, thinking about our past Repeat chorus Lyrics: Sjölund Music: Sjölund/Löf/Vintras |

From Hlidskjalf I behold I watch over you nine worlds I remember In ancient times, giants spawned But what is left untouched? Repeat pre-chorus Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Löf/Lindgren |

Prelude: Heading for The Golden Hall With the cold northern wind we travel We’re on a journey of a lifetime And we’ll fight many battles on our way We’ll trample the bodies of the dead as we travel We’ll go on ‘til the day we die And reach our destination: The golden gates of Valhalla! Lyrics: Väänäänen Music: Löf Storms of Asgard A desolate aeon has passed since the demise of our crown A tragic end which made hecates and predictors wail But dragons still sleep tranquil in proud heathen hearts At first they came wearing their most innocent masques Telling vikings vague stories about a nazarene whelp While keeping their swords drawn behind their backs Chorus: Storms of Asgard Engulf the unfaithful Storms of Asgard Reclaim your throne They spread their odius thorns all over northern soil Some unfaithful sheeps swore allegiance to them But some rather died Their craving and megalomania became too much Raping northern soil before pagan eyes spawned hate There where great battles but the outcome were not The pagans volcanic wrath is still alive in our hearts And the white veil which still covers us Will be torn apart Repeat chorus Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Löf/Lindgren/Vintras |

Screams in the night woke the whole village up Their cattle is getting attacked The fences are broken and blood everywhere Horses are lying there slack Fenrir divided, a horde of greywolves His power inside of them all Feasting on the guts of both stallions and goats No animal in there stands tall The people were struck by terror and fear While beasts intruded their ground Like the flow of a storm that none can control Cascades of blood in the pound Spears were thrown at the raging wolfhorde So hard to select them all out (in the night) Running with bloodied fangs and fierce eyes It sure doesn’t help much to shout In from wilderness came death Wolves in the pound!!! Setting some torches on fire might scare But will them beasts disappear? The scene turns real grim when the creatures change course Grotesque, exploding fear Thirtythree persons in spite with the wolves So hungry and dangerous Only much later when the sun rises One can count the loss The horrible fur-beasts defeated ’em all And the yard was a bloody mess A village of death, Fenrir’s cold work Of entrails, bones and flesh The people they fought in vain for their farm Wolven hunger got fed After this night of terror and pain All the humans were dead In from wilderness came death Blood on the ground!!! Lyrics: Sjölund Music: Lindgren/Löf |

Askans rike Över nordmäns stormande grav Klagar den enögdes blick På himlen Tor ilsken rasar Under korset slav Åskgudens fader, vässa ditt spjut Höj baneklingan ännu en gång Bryt ulvens kätting Vilan är över, Väntan är slut Fenris, jaga honom, följ hans spår Fäders motvind har mojnat När hans boning blivit ruin I korsets aska vi en ny gröda sår I bränd mark finnes den bördigaste jord Humle och malt skall slå rot I ditt kadaver Förgör, den eviga fienden till hednisk hord Askans rike ur blodshämnd föds Höj era horn I en skål mina fränder Ulven fann sitt byte ännu en gång På strupen syntes märken Från asars händer och vargars tänder Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Lindgren/Löf |

Valdr Galga I know that I hung in this tree All of nights nine Wounded by the spear, given to myself Enlightened I’ll become No horn they upheld, nor handed me bread I looked below me, aloud I cried Caught up the runes, caught them up wailing Then to the ground I fell again I know that I hung in this tree All of nights nine Wounded by the spear, given to myself Enlightened I’ll become From the son of Bolthorn, Bestla’s father I mastered mighty songs nine And a drink I had from the strongest mead Got out from Óthraerir Yggdrasil must abide More than to men is known The hart browsing above, it’s bark rotting And Nidhogg gnawing beneath Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Lindgren/Löf |

5. | The Deceitful | 04:40 | Show lyrics |
The Deceitful Distrust rules in Asgards heart Farbautes son is spinning his web With laughter, lies and malicous acts Infecting our divine paradise But we can not kill you, we are bound as we cry A sign of death before Ragnarök arrives! "So Höder, why don’t they let you shoot at your brother? Here, take this arrow, I’ll help you aim..." Chorus: Loke - spawned by giants you came to us Deceitful - if we can not trust you, who can we trust? Your outrages are many, with that we must live As your stepbrother I must you forgive Your children will haunt us, and we will them meet In the final battle, when you sail your fleet On the flaming sea, you stand in the stern Still you are laughing, in the fire you must burn! "So Tyr, where is your right hand? Seems like Fenris still has it between his jaws..." Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Lindgren/Löf |

Arising I would wake warriors great Summon warriors of the oak High as a pine in the forest Summon those who sleep Wake those beneath the grass Buried deep under fields Under sacrificial graves In the burning earth Carve runes upon the horns Stain them red with blood We mumble our spells and sing our hymns Filled with lust we drink The mead so pure and strong Proffered by smiling maidens We praise the taste on our tongue Mead blessed for us by Odin Chorus: My father he has promised That glorious I’ll become Standing high in the stern Steering the ship so worthy Slained in battle I rise again Brought to life by a heathen spell The sea was my home, I ruled the waves Without fearing my death Arising from the realm Where the dead are screaming in vain Bring forth the day And I’ll fight by your side Born here in northern land My vision’s been clear since long ago My heart will bleed as I walk upon earth My fate lies here, carved in stone I’m surrounded by fires I behold this fearsome night I was born as a wolf But raised as a human Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Löf/Lindgren |

Prelude: Heading for The Golden Hall With the cold northern wind we travel We’re on a journey of a lifetime And we’ll fight many battles on our way We’ll trample the bodies of the dead as we travel We’ll go on ‘til the day we die And reach our destination: The golden gates of Valhalla! Lyrics: Väänäänen Music: Löf Storms of Asgard A desolate aeon has passed since the demise of our crown A tragic end which made hecates and predictors wail But dragons still sleep tranquil in proud heathen hearts At first they came wearing their most innocent masques Telling vikings vague stories about a nazarene whelp While keeping their swords drawn behind their backs Chorus: Storms of Asgard Engulf the unfaithful Storms of Asgard Reclaim your throne They spread their odius thorns all over northern soil Some unfaithful sheeps swore allegiance to them But some rather died Their craving and megalomania became too much Raping northern soil before pagan eyes spawned hate There where great battles but the outcome were not The pagans volcanic wrath is still alive in our hearts And the white veil which still covers us Will be torn apart Repeat chorus Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Löf/Lindgren/Vintras |

Screams in the night woke the whole village up Their cattle is getting attacked The fences are broken and blood everywhere Horses are lying there slack Fenrir divided, a horde of greywolves His power inside of them all Feasting on the guts of both stallions and goats No animal in there stands tall The people were struck by terror and fear While beasts intruded their ground Like the flow of a storm that none can control Cascades of blood in the pound Spears were thrown at the raging wolfhorde So hard to select them all out (in the night) Running with bloodied fangs and fierce eyes It sure doesn’t help much to shout In from wilderness came death Wolves in the pound!!! Setting some torches on fire might scare But will them beasts disappear? The scene turns real grim when the creatures change course Grotesque, exploding fear Thirtythree persons in spite with the wolves So hungry and dangerous Only much later when the sun rises One can count the loss The horrible fur-beasts defeated ’em all And the yard was a bloody mess A village of death, Fenrir’s cold work Of entrails, bones and flesh The people they fought in vain for their farm Wolven hunger got fed After this night of terror and pain All the humans were dead In from wilderness came death Blood on the ground!!! Lyrics: Sjölund Music: Lindgren/Löf |

Askans rike Över nordmäns stormande grav Klagar den enögdes blick På himlen Tor ilsken rasar Under korset slav Åskgudens fader, vässa ditt spjut Höj baneklingan ännu en gång Bryt ulvens kätting Vilan är över, Väntan är slut Fenris, jaga honom, följ hans spår Fäders motvind har mojnat När hans boning blivit ruin I korsets aska vi en ny gröda sår I bränd mark finnes den bördigaste jord Humle och malt skall slå rot I ditt kadaver Förgör, den eviga fienden till hednisk hord Askans rike ur blodshämnd föds Höj era horn I en skål mina fränder Ulven fann sitt byte ännu en gång På strupen syntes märken Från asars händer och vargars tänder Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Lindgren/Löf |

4. | Valdr Galga | 04:39 | Show lyrics |
Valdr Galga I know that I hung in this tree All of nights nine Wounded by the spear, given to myself Enlightened I’ll become No horn they upheld, nor handed me bread I looked below me, aloud I cried Caught up the runes, caught them up wailing Then to the ground I fell again I know that I hung in this tree All of nights nine Wounded by the spear, given to myself Enlightened I’ll become From the son of Bolthorn, Bestla’s father I mastered mighty songs nine And a drink I had from the strongest mead Got out from Óthraerir Yggdrasil must abide More than to men is known The hart browsing above, it’s bark rotting And Nidhogg gnawing beneath Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Lindgren/Löf |

5. | The Deceitful | 04:40 | Show lyrics |
The Deceitful Distrust rules in Asgards heart Farbautes son is spinning his web With laughter, lies and malicous acts Infecting our divine paradise But we can not kill you, we are bound as we cry A sign of death before Ragnarök arrives! "So Höder, why don’t they let you shoot at your brother? Here, take this arrow, I’ll help you aim..." Chorus: Loke - spawned by giants you came to us Deceitful - if we can not trust you, who can we trust? Your outrages are many, with that we must live As your stepbrother I must you forgive Your children will haunt us, and we will them meet In the final battle, when you sail your fleet On the flaming sea, you stand in the stern Still you are laughing, in the fire you must burn! "So Tyr, where is your right hand? Seems like Fenris still has it between his jaws..." Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Lindgren/Löf |

6. | Arising | 05:12 | Show lyrics |
Arising I would wake warriors great Summon warriors of the oak High as a pine in the forest Summon those who sleep Wake those beneath the grass Buried deep under fields Under sacrificial graves In the burning earth Carve runes upon the horns Stain them red with blood We mumble our spells and sing our hymns Filled with lust we drink The mead so pure and strong Proffered by smiling maidens We praise the taste on our tongue Mead blessed for us by Odin Chorus: My father he has promised That glorious I’ll become Standing high in the stern Steering the ship so worthy Slained in battle I rise again Brought to life by a heathen spell The sea was my home, I ruled the waves Without fearing my death Arising from the realm Where the dead are screaming in vain Bring forth the day And I’ll fight by your side Born here in northern land My vision’s been clear since long ago My heart will bleed as I walk upon earth My fate lies here, carved in stone I’m surrounded by fires I behold this fearsome night I was born as a wolf But raised as a human Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Löf/Lindgren |

Firever Crawling shadow Nighttime abomination Beyond daylight lurking Hiding from the sun And he who mist breath Is the ghost of my time The soul of my kindred The blood in my veins In flesh he was mighty An enigma yet real He was a fierce slayer Feared by those not insane Warrior... Utter usurpation of foreign shores Axemaster and berserker without remorse Warrior... The might and courage he possesed Are in treason times qualities opressed Firever... Underworld dweller Arise and tyrannize Thyrfing warmongers Wants you warlike again Descend Let the air fill your lungs Your prevail is my victory New tales are to be told New tales carved in stones Tales spawned by enemy blood A fire deep within Fire forever Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Löf/Lindgren |

8. | A Moment in Valhalla | 04:55 | Show lyrics |
A Moment in Valhalla Horns raised and filled with the finest of mead Valhalla’s warriors battle succeed The lodge so enormous, so many in here Valkyries serve us the best flesh and beer Forever we’ll sit here, to eat and drink well All of us heathens on a battlefield fell Our death went divine to Valhalla came Another brave name for the golden hall’s fame Inside the great lodge where delight does stream A beautiful valkyrie in every man’s dream "Woman come over here and sit on my knee! In the great sky tonight you will see Up there I’ll show you the mighty starsign The shape of Thyrfing trapped in time That sword my life once before took But now in Valhalla, tonight we will fuck!" Chorus: Where delight is streaming Fallen warriors gleaming Soon we’ll be there in the goldenmost hey Crawling around each other ‘til the very next day Eight hundred voices in a drunken chant Some dance around the tables, stand straight they can’t Throats are getting wet, throats are getting dry There’s a lot of mead in the horns raised high The feast goes on forever, for ages it will last We’re all getting glorified, thinking about our past Repeat chorus Lyrics: Sjölund Music: Sjölund/Löf/Vintras |

9. | Mimer’s Well | 04:40 | Show lyrics |
Mimer’s Well In the dawn of time, when Ymer lived There was no sand, nor sea or waves There was no earth, there was no heaven An endless abyss, gasping like a wolf Before the sons of Bor Raised the lands to the sky The ones who Midgard created The sun shone upon stones The grass was left untouched And the earth slept in peace Pre-chorus: "I know it all, where you hid your eye Down in Mimer’s well He drinks your mead, your source of wisdom He is drinking of your blood" Chorus: The well won’t dry out as long as I live I can promise you But the sun will never shine over worlds nine The final battle awaits In the shape of an eagle, I flew And I drank of Kvasir’s blood I created, I enlightened But what is left today? From Hlidskjalf I behold I watch over you nine worlds I remember In ancient times, giants spawned But what is left untouched? Repeat pre-chorus Repeat chorus Lyrics: Lindgren Music: Löf/Lindgren |

A Great Man’s Return Under Norve’s starfilled sky In a forest so deep and wide Eight hooves are thundering By the mountains darkest side In the shadows two grey shapes Hungry stalking their prey A long time has passed Since they went away Pre-chorus: This is the call for a great man’s return Longing for the old age, let this world burn I yearn for retribution, I want fields stained red Odin show us that you’re not dead Chorus: Northern king... return Follow the path we make, longer for every day Warlord... return Your eyes in the sky will show you the way Northern king... return We will be waiting, thousands and thousands of men Warlord... return Together we will drink, fight, die and live again Under Norve’s starfilled sky In a heathen forest deep and wide Sleipner calm is standing With Odin by his side By his feet two wolves are lying Feeding and resting in the night A long time will pass Until bloodred snow becomes white Repeat pre-chorus Repeat chorus Lyrics: Kristensson Music: Lindgren/Löf |

Or the majestic view at the mountains of Brevik? Tyresö, you have left a mark in my heart Home... I am coming home again As I think of home, the memories burn inside of me Does my son still remember me? Does his mother recall how life used to be? Will she ever recognize this grey and scarred old man? Will I ever see her smile again? Will she meet me at the shore when my ship comes in? Mother Svea, you have left a mark in my heart So I am coming home again For home and kindred I have sailed so far For home and kindred I am coming home again |

Can you see the souls of those who died? |

Yesterday never died - it just went into hiding It lies slumbering at the bottom of a deep, dark lake Hidden in the woods of my time There was no path to follow, but I found my way I had been lost for long Forlorn in the woods I knew so well I didn’t quite know what I was looking for But still I found it - or did it find me? I couldn’t see a way to this place But from where I stand now I can see it all. I can see how bright the stars shine at night. I can see how the sun wakes life from it’s slumber And I see how the snow cradles it back to sleep again. I see my way back home but I never want to leave this place. |

En stärkande känsla som håller anden vid liv Som överlever nornornas alla nycker En kraft som segrar över alla fiender Den slumrar i dina blodsband, men finns där kvar Ett naturens väsen, själens bärande stomme En förnimmelse från förr, i arv från våra förfäder En ymnigt strömmande styrka, lika gammal som tiden själv En odödlig energi, som i naturen frodas i varje levande fors och sjö, i varje mäktig ek och reslig gran Stilla den andas, lugnt och starkt men ett vaket sinne ser och hör, hur den väcker själaminnen I glömska den ligger, men ger givmilt när du är redo att ta emot Redo att väcka din ande till liv Dess källa är outsinlig, evig och öppen åt alla som bär den inom sig Låt den ej för evigt sova! Känn dess återkomst, likt något som saknats En del av den du är, ett kall från ditt blod Känn ditt arv, och hur nordens själ flyter genom dina ådror Ett fåtal är vi som urkraften minnes Evigt styrkta av en flamma som aldrig slocknar Världen är höljd i mörker men nordstjärnan leder oss till slaget på Vigrids slätt |

Yesterday never died - it just went into hiding It lies slumbering at the bottom of a deep, dark lake Hidden in the woods of my time There was no path to follow, but I found my way I had been lost for long Forlorn in the woods I knew so well I didn’t quite know what I was looking for But still I found it - or did it find me? I couldn’t see a way to this place But from where I stand now I can see it all. I can see how bright the stars shine at night. I can see how the sun wakes life from it’s slumber And I see how the snow cradles it back to sleep again. I see my way back home but I never want to leave this place. |

In primordial times, when Ginnungagap empty stared Before Ymers death, before our triumphant dominion There was nothing No sea, no waves No earth, no heaven A frostcovered stone created Bure, father of Bur, Bestlas husband Bestla, daughter of Böltorn And mother of three Oden, Vile and Ve Ymer’s assassins, Svears creators Chorus: Oden - spirit and life you gave Vile - intellect was your gift Ve - completed the heathen warrior And Sweoland sets sail to plunder With will as strong as the heart of Hrungner They sat the world ablaze Usurpers of Ethelreds british isles Conquerors of western Frankia And crushers of Irish strongholds The flesh of a giant bears the mark of their tribe And his blood carried them forth to glory "Never before has such terror appeared as we now have suffered from a pagan race" "Nor was it thought possible that such an inroad from the sea could be made" Repeat chorus "Shrines were desecrated Ornaments were plundered The bodies of saints were trampled The blood of priests was spilled" |

The long, hard years at sea, have taken their toll on me For thirteen winters and a spring, I have been so far away So far, far away from the place I call home A place so beautiful, it’s where I want to die Have you ever seen the rivers of Nyfors? Or the majestic view at the mountains of Brevik? Tyresö, you have left a mark in my heart Home... I am coming home again As I think of home, the memories burn inside of me Does my son still remember me? Does his mother recall how life used to be? Will she ever recognize this grey and scarred old man? Will I ever see her smile again? Will she meet me at the shore when my ship comes in? Mother Svea, you have left a mark in my heart So I am coming home again For home and kindred I have sailed so far For home and kindred I am coming home again |

Welcome to plunge into this storm Where warlords ride, and kill with pride The smell of rage, this ancient hate That has been in wait Before the torture took my soul and the night turned black like the darkest hole Before the wolves learned to howl Chorus: Open the time where bloodbeasts lurk, break serenity Feel the ancient fury, smell the air of undead breath Can you sense the torture, the knowledge of ending days? Do you hear the sound of nearby death? Taste the ultimate of pain Struck me, ripped out every trace of life Elves and valkyries scream my name out loud This has been in wait Before the torture took my soul and the night turned black like the darkest hole Before the wolves learned to howl Repeat chorus Come on, let’s join the chaosstorm Unleash your sword and face the sky Can you see the reflections of a burning world? Can you see the souls of those who died? |

In primordial times, when Ginnungagap empty stared Before Ymers death, before our triumphant dominion There was nothing No sea, no waves No earth, no heaven A frostcovered stone created Bure, father of Bur, Bestlas husband Bestla, daughter of Böltorn And mother of three Oden, Vile and Ve Ymer’s assassins, Svears creators Chorus: Oden - spirit and life you gave Vile - intellect was your gift Ve - completed the heathen warrior And Sweoland sets sail to plunder With will as strong as the heart of Hrungner They sat the world ablaze Usurpers of Ethelreds british isles Conquerors of western Frankia And crushers of Irish strongholds The flesh of a giant bears the mark of their tribe And his blood carried them forth to glory "Never before has such terror appeared as we now have suffered from a pagan race" "Nor was it thought possible that such an inroad from the sea could be made" Repeat chorus "Shrines were desecrated Ornaments were plundered The bodies of saints were trampled The blood of priests was spilled" |

The long, hard years at sea, have taken their toll on me For thirteen winters and a spring, I have been so far away So far, far away from the place I call home A place so beautiful, it’s where I want to die Have you ever seen the rivers of Nyfors? Or the majestic view at the mountains of Brevik? Tyresö, you have left a mark in my heart Home... I am coming home again As I think of home, the memories burn inside of me Does my son still remember me? Does his mother recall how life used to be? Will she ever recognize this grey and scarred old man? Will I ever see her smile again? Will she meet me at the shore when my ship comes in? Mother Svea, you have left a mark in my heart So I am coming home again For home and kindred I have sailed so far For home and kindred I am coming home again |

Welcome to plunge into this storm Where warlords ride, and kill with pride The smell of rage, this ancient hate That has been in wait Before the torture took my soul and the night turned black like the darkest hole Before the wolves learned to howl Chorus: Open the time where bloodbeasts lurk, break serenity Feel the ancient fury, smell the air of undead breath Can you sense the torture, the knowledge of ending days? Do you hear the sound of nearby death? Taste the ultimate of pain Struck me, ripped out every trace of life Elves and valkyries scream my name out loud This has been in wait Before the torture took my soul and the night turned black like the darkest hole Before the wolves learned to howl Repeat chorus Come on, let’s join the chaosstorm Unleash your sword and face the sky Can you see the reflections of a burning world? Can you see the souls of those who died? |

Yesterday never died - it just went into hiding It lies slumbering at the bottom of a deep, dark lake Hidden in the woods of my time There was no path to follow, but I found my way I had been lost for long Forlorn in the woods I knew so well I didn’t quite know what I was looking for But still I found it - or did it find me? I couldn’t see a way to this place But from where I stand now I can see it all. I can see how bright the stars shine at night. I can see how the sun wakes life from it’s slumber And I see how the snow cradles it back to sleep again. I see my way back home but I never want to leave this place. |

En stärkande känsla som håller anden vid liv Som överlever nornornas alla nycker En kraft som segrar över alla fiender Den slumrar i dina blodsband, men finns där kvar Ett naturens väsen, själens bärande stomme En förnimmelse från förr, i arv från våra förfäder En ymnigt strömmande styrka, lika gammal som tiden själv En odödlig energi, som i naturen frodas i varje levande fors och sjö, i varje mäktig ek och reslig gran Stilla den andas, lugnt och starkt men ett vaket sinne ser och hör, hur den väcker själaminnen I glömska den ligger, men ger givmilt när du är redo att ta emot Redo att väcka din ande till liv Dess källa är outsinlig, evig och öppen åt alla som bär den inom sig Låt den ej för evigt sova! Känn dess återkomst, likt något som saknats En del av den du är, ett kall från ditt blod Känn ditt arv, och hur nordens själ flyter genom dina ådror Ett fåtal är vi som urkraften minnes Evigt styrkta av en flamma som aldrig slocknar Världen är höljd i mörker men nordstjärnan leder oss till slaget på Vigrids slätt |

12. | Over the Hills and Far Away (Gary Moore cover) | 05:01 | Show lyrics |
They came for him one winter’s night Arrested, he was bound They said there’d been a robbery His pistol had been found They marched him to the station house He waited till the dawn And as they led him to the dock He knew that he’d been wronged "You stand accused of robbery," He heard the bailiff say He knew without an alibi Tomorrow’s light would mourn his freedom Over the hills and far away For ten long years he’ll count the days Over the mountains and the seas A prisoner’s life for him there’ll be He knew that it would cost him dear But yet he dare not say Just where he’d been that fateful night A secret it must stay He had to fight back tears of rage His heart beat like a drum For with the wife of his best friend He spent his final night of freedom Over the hills and far away He swears he will return one day Far from the mountains and the seas Back in her arms again he’ll be Over the hills and far away Over the hills and Over the hills and Over the hills and far away Each night within his prison cell He looks out through the bars He reads the letters that she wrote One day he’ll know the taste of freedom Over the hills and far away She prays he will return one day As sure as the rivers reach the seas Back in his arms again she’ll be Over the hills and far away He swears he will return one day As sure as the river reach the seas Back in his arms is where she’ll be Over the hills and far away She prays he will return one day As sure as the rivers reach the sea Back in her arms is where he’ll be Over the hills Over the hills and far away Over the hills Over the hills and far away |

In primordial times, when Ginnungagap empty stared Before Ymers death, before our triumphant dominion There was nothing No sea, no waves No earth, no heaven A frostcovered stone created Bure, father of Bur, Bestlas husband Bestla, daughter of Böltorn And mother of three Oden, Vile and Ve Ymer’s assassins, Svears creators Chorus: Oden - spirit and life you gave Vile - intellect was your gift Ve - completed the heathen warrior And Sweoland sets sail to plunder With will as strong as the heart of Hrungner They sat the world ablaze Usurpers of Ethelreds british isles Conquerors of western Frankia And crushers of Irish strongholds The flesh of a giant bears the mark of their tribe And his blood carried them forth to glory "Never before has such terror appeared as we now have suffered from a pagan race" "Nor was it thought possible that such an inroad from the sea could be made" Repeat chorus "Shrines were desecrated Ornaments were plundered The bodies of saints were trampled The blood of priests was spilled" |

4. | Home Again | 07:44 | Show lyrics |
The long, hard years at sea, have taken their toll on me For thirteen winters and a spring, I have been so far away So far, far away from the place I call home A place so beautiful, it’s where I want to die Have you ever seen the rivers of Nyfors? Or the majestic view at the mountains of Brevik? Tyresö, you have left a mark in my heart Home... I am coming home again As I think of home, the memories burn inside of me Does my son still remember me? Does his mother recall how life used to be? Will she ever recognize this grey and scarred old man? Will I ever see her smile again? Will she meet me at the shore when my ship comes in? Mother Svea, you have left a mark in my heart So I am coming home again For home and kindred I have sailed so far For home and kindred I am coming home again |

5. | The Breaking of Serenity | 04:27 | Show lyrics |
Welcome to plunge into this storm Where warlords ride, and kill with pride The smell of rage, this ancient hate That has been in wait Before the torture took my soul and the night turned black like the darkest hole Before the wolves learned to howl Chorus: Open the time where bloodbeasts lurk, break serenity Feel the ancient fury, smell the air of undead breath Can you sense the torture, the knowledge of ending days? Do you hear the sound of nearby death? Taste the ultimate of pain Struck me, ripped out every trace of life Elves and valkyries scream my name out loud This has been in wait Before the torture took my soul and the night turned black like the darkest hole Before the wolves learned to howl Repeat chorus Come on, let’s join the chaosstorm Unleash your sword and face the sky Can you see the reflections of a burning world? Can you see the souls of those who died? |

In the filth of your failure, still suppresive The overlord’s standing supreme Wounded through time, still it’s breeding Your beckon call ignored Not of the divine, still it’s drinking your wine A parasites’ vanquish in the light You are the well that waters his hatred Upon your sins he is feeding The sins you made when Adam got laid Your life is a bitch because Eve got paid ...and the truth shall set you free... Liar This blade I give to thee I put my trust in you Deep in you May your blood keep it warm Liar The ways of the parasite not for your eyes to see As your icon withers Odin carries the prophecy Fire forever |

9. | The Slumber of Yesteryears | 03:47 | Show lyrics |
Yesterday never died - it just went into hiding It lies slumbering at the bottom of a deep, dark lake Hidden in the woods of my time There was no path to follow, but I found my way I had been lost for long Forlorn in the woods I knew so well I didn’t quite know what I was looking for But still I found it - or did it find me? I couldn’t see a way to this place But from where I stand now I can see it all. I can see how bright the stars shine at night. I can see how the sun wakes life from it’s slumber And I see how the snow cradles it back to sleep again. I see my way back home but I never want to leave this place. |

En stärkande känsla som håller anden vid liv Som överlever nornornas alla nycker En kraft som segrar över alla fiender Den slumrar i dina blodsband, men finns där kvar Ett naturens väsen, själens bärande stomme En förnimmelse från förr, i arv från våra förfäder En ymnigt strömmande styrka, lika gammal som tiden själv En odödlig energi, som i naturen frodas i varje levande fors och sjö, i varje mäktig ek och reslig gran Stilla den andas, lugnt och starkt men ett vaket sinne ser och hör, hur den väcker själaminnen I glömska den ligger, men ger givmilt när du är redo att ta emot Redo att väcka din ande till liv Dess källa är outsinlig, evig och öppen åt alla som bär den inom sig Låt den ej för evigt sova! Känn dess återkomst, likt något som saknats En del av den du är, ett kall från ditt blod Känn ditt arv, och hur nordens själ flyter genom dina ådror Ett fåtal är vi som urkraften minnes Evigt styrkta av en flamma som aldrig slocknar Världen är höljd i mörker men nordstjärnan leder oss till slaget på Vigrids slätt |

6. | Over the Hills and Far away (Gary Moore cover) | 05:01 | Show lyrics |
They came for him one winter’s night Arrested, he was bound They said there’d been a robbery His pistol had been found They marched him to the station house He waited till the dawn And as they led him to the dock He knew that he’d been wronged "You stand accused of robbery," He heard the bailiff say He knew without an alibi Tomorrow’s light would mourn his freedom Over the hills and far away For ten long years he’ll count the days Over the mountains and the seas A prisoner’s life for him there’ll be He knew that it would cost him dear But yet he dare not say Just where he’d been that fateful night A secret it must stay He had to fight back tears of rage His heart beat like a drum For with the wife of his best friend He spent his final night of freedom Over the hills and far away He swears he will return one day Far from the mountains and the seas Back in her arms again he’ll be Over the hills and far away Over the hills and Over the hills and Over the hills and far away Each night within his prison cell He looks out through the bars He reads the letters that she wrote One day he’ll know the taste of freedom Over the hills and far away She prays he will return one day As sure as the rivers reach the seas Back in his arms again she’ll be Over the hills and far away He swears he will return one day As sure as the river reach the seas Back in his arms is where she’ll be Over the hills and far away She prays he will return one day As sure as the rivers reach the sea Back in her arms is where he’ll be Over the hills Over the hills and far away Over the hills Over the hills and far away |

In primordial times, when Ginnungagap empty stared Before Ymers death, before our triumphant dominion There was nothing No sea, no waves No earth, no heaven A frostcovered stone created Bure, father of Bur, Bestlas husband Bestla, daughter of Böltorn And mother of three Oden, Vile and Ve Ymer’s assassins, Svears creators Chorus: Oden - spirit and life you gave Vile - intellect was your gift Ve - completed the heathen warrior And Sweoland sets sail to plunder With will as strong as the heart of Hrungner They sat the world ablaze Usurpers of Ethelreds british isles Conquerors of western Frankia And crushers of Irish strongholds The flesh of a giant bears the mark of their tribe And his blood carried them forth to glory "Never before has such terror appeared as we now have suffered from a pagan race" "Nor was it thought possible that such an inroad from the sea could be made" Repeat chorus "Shrines were desecrated Ornaments were plundered The bodies of saints were trampled The blood of priests was spilled" |

4. | Home Again | 07:44 | Show lyrics |
The long, hard years at sea, have taken their toll on me For thirteen winters and a spring, I have been so far away So far, far away from the place I call home A place so beautiful, it’s where I want to die Have you ever seen the rivers of Nyfors? Or the majestic view at the mountains of Brevik? Tyresö, you have left a mark in my heart Home... I am coming home again As I think of home, the memories burn inside of me Does my son still remember me? Does his mother recall how life used to be? Will she ever recognize this grey and scarred old man? Will I ever see her smile again? Will she meet me at the shore when my ship comes in? Mother Svea, you have left a mark in my heart So I am coming home again For home and kindred I have sailed so far For home and kindred I am coming home again |

5. | The Breaking of Serenity | 04:27 | Show lyrics |
Welcome to plunge into this storm Where warlords ride, and kill with pride The smell of rage, this ancient hate That has been in wait Before the torture took my soul and the night turned black like the darkest hole Before the wolves learned to howl Chorus: Open the time where bloodbeasts lurk, break serenity Feel the ancient fury, smell the air of undead breath Can you sense the torture, the knowledge of ending days? Do you hear the sound of nearby death? Taste the ultimate of pain Struck me, ripped out every trace of life Elves and valkyries scream my name out loud This has been in wait Before the torture took my soul and the night turned black like the darkest hole Before the wolves learned to howl Repeat chorus Come on, let’s join the chaosstorm Unleash your sword and face the sky Can you see the reflections of a burning world? Can you see the souls of those who died? |

In the filth of your failure, still suppresive The overlord’s standing supreme Wounded through time, still it’s breeding Your beckon call ignored Not of the divine, still it’s drinking your wine A parasites’ vanquish in the light You are the well that waters his hatred Upon your sins he is feeding The sins you made when Adam got laid Your life is a bitch because Eve got paid ...and the truth shall set you free... Liar This blade I give to thee I put my trust in you Deep in you May your blood keep it warm Liar The ways of the parasite not for your eyes to see As your icon withers Odin carries the prophecy Fire forever |

Väpnare under nordens banér Framåt - Nidingblod är ert elixir Av jord är niding kommen Jord skall niding åter varda Drakens ornament i hällen glöda Till tordön skall niding villfara Av jord skall niding åter varda En salut för nordens möda Sanningar tär när ert allt är bränt Utopins eldar strävar mot ytan Skrik, ni klädda i lågans skrud En grav är grävd för skyars regent Askens krona den siste nu vördar Ljuset falnar, ty hoppet dog När Birka åter ur askan steg Ett ansikte förvridet för nordens möda |

9. | The Slumber of Yesteryears | 03:47 | Show lyrics |
Yesterday never died - it just went into hiding It lies slumbering at the bottom of a deep, dark lake Hidden in the woods of my time There was no path to follow, but I found my way I had been lost for long Forlorn in the woods I knew so well I didn’t quite know what I was looking for But still I found it - or did it find me? I couldn’t see a way to this place But from where I stand now I can see it all. I can see how bright the stars shine at night. I can see how the sun wakes life from it’s slumber And I see how the snow cradles it back to sleep again. I see my way back home but I never want to leave this place. |

Slutligen föll jag på kämpavallen men sorgen varar ej hos en krigare fallen Som föda åt korparna jag föll men svärdet mitt i handen jag höll Valkyriors vackra skepnader jag såg då jag döende i mitt sårsvett låg Striden väldig blev mitt fall Till Valfader urgammal jag nu färdas skall Härfader, Valfader, in i salen mig bjuder Enhärjarskarans skålar i Valhall ljuder Kommen var min sista jordedag Nu är blott väntan på det sista av slag Min död på fältet var ond och bråd och nu berättar jag om månget hjältedåd Var dag får vi på gården kämpa aldrig bliva gammal, aldrig lida av en ålders krämpa |

11. | Urkraft | 07:36 | Show lyrics |
En stärkande känsla som håller anden vid liv Som överlever nornornas alla nycker En kraft som segrar över alla fiender Den slumrar i dina blodsband, men finns där kvar Ett naturens väsen, själens bärande stomme En förnimmelse från förr, i arv från våra förfäder En ymnigt strömmande styrka, lika gammal som tiden själv En odödlig energi, som i naturen frodas i varje levande fors och sjö, i varje mäktig ek och reslig gran Stilla den andas, lugnt och starkt men ett vaket sinne ser och hör, hur den väcker själaminnen I glömska den ligger, men ger givmilt när du är redo att ta emot Redo att väcka din ande till liv Dess källa är outsinlig, evig och öppen åt alla som bär den inom sig Låt den ej för evigt sova! Känn dess återkomst, likt något som saknats En del av den du är, ett kall från ditt blod Känn ditt arv, och hur nordens själ flyter genom dina ådror Ett fåtal är vi som urkraften minnes Evigt styrkta av en flamma som aldrig slocknar Världen är höljd i mörker men nordstjärnan leder oss till slaget på Vigrids slätt |

12. | Over the Hills and Far away (Gary Moore cover) | 05:01 | Show lyrics |
They came for him one winter’s night Arrested, he was bound They said there’d been a robbery His pistol had been found They marched him to the station house He waited till the dawn And as they led him to the dock He knew that he’d been wronged "You stand accused of robbery," He heard the bailiff say He knew without an alibi Tomorrow’s light would mourn his freedom Over the hills and far away For ten long years he’ll count the days Over the mountains and the seas A prisoner’s life for him there’ll be He knew that it would cost him dear But yet he dare not say Just where he’d been that fateful night A secret it must stay He had to fight back tears of rage His heart beat like a drum For with the wife of his best friend He spent his final night of freedom Over the hills and far away He swears he will return one day Far from the mountains and the seas Back in her arms again he’ll be Over the hills and far away Over the hills and Over the hills and Over the hills and far away Each night within his prison cell He looks out through the bars He reads the letters that she wrote One day he’ll know the taste of freedom Over the hills and far away She prays he will return one day As sure as the rivers reach the seas Back in his arms again she’ll be Over the hills and far away He swears he will return one day As sure as the river reach the seas Back in his arms is where she’ll be Over the hills and far away She prays he will return one day As sure as the rivers reach the sea Back in her arms is where he’ll be Over the hills Over the hills and far away Over the hills Over the hills and far away |

Vad döljer Rans döttrar för mig?

What are the Daughters of Ran hiding from me?

I en kvalmfylld, andlig öken har jag sett dem gå Drabbade av själasoten, håglösa, med ilska i synen Det är som sorgen aldrig skulle lämna deras ögon Som om sinnet hade svartnat för evigt Sammanträngda på ytor små Lager på lager (i boningar grå) i ångestens högborg Under jorden hastar de – jagande sökande; ingenting finnande Varför stannar de aldrig upp? Innan ni er fredliga gömma finner I susande lundar tvingas även ni till vila Inte en stilla undran – en rasande fråga; Varför stannar ni aldrig upp? Oändligt upplyst – för alltid höljd i mörker Inga stjärnor ser jag lysa här Vilka skalder dikta i denna dimma? Vilka målare sina verk här färgar? Oändligt upplyst – för alltid höljd i mörker Vilka målare sina verk här färgar? ------------------------------------------------------------ English Translation: The Stronghold of Angst In a suffocating, spiritual desert I have seen them wander Struck by the soul-plague, listless, with anger in their gazes It is as if sorrow would never leave their eyes As if the mind had been blackened forever Compressed into small spaces Layer upon layer (in gray dwellings) in the stronghold of angst Below the ground they hurry - hunting, searching; finding nothing Why don’t they ever stop going? Before you find your peaceful hideouts In murmuring groves even you are forced to rest Not a calm wondering – a furious question: Why don’t you ever stop going? Endlessly enlightened – forever wrapped in darkness No stars do I see shining here What bards would write in this fog? What painters would colour their works here?

Aldrig mer må vi talas vid Men på gastbacken hörs vår klagan Aldrig mer vi järtecken finna Vi mötas vid din gravöl Räfsans slit vid gårdars dörr Varslar om död så kall Nu digra liar svepa Likt en skarprättares verk [Chorus:] (x2) Här vandrar en pestlagen hop Här skådas krigets härjningar Här vilar en lukt av död Här frodas domedagens gissel Blida den med köttet, det fina Rena husen med gnideld Må nysått gräs den hindra Djurkadavrens stank den fräna Det blir inte ont om kläder men det skall råda brist på bräder Många kistor vi må bygga Ty pestens tid är här ---------------------------------------- English Translation: The Black Death Nevermore will we speak to each other But on the hill of ghosts our lament is heard Nevermore will we find omens We will meet for your funeral ale The toil of rakes by the farms’ doors Forboding such a cold death Now great scythes sweep Like the work of an executioner [Chorus:] (x2) Here wanders a plague-stricken crowd Here can be beheld the ravages of war Here lies a stench of death Here flourishes the scourge of the doomsday Appease it with the flesh, the pure Cleanse the houses with fire May newly sown grass hinder it The acrid stench of animal cadavers We will not run out of clothes But there will be a shortage of boards Many coffins we may build For the time of the plague is here |

Blått, grått, grönt för ögat Världsspegeln, dit längtans vingar bär En fröjd att skåda, att sinnet öppna Flyende sot på svarta vingar far Om natten, stormen och vinden Molnfria vyers inre horisont ler En öppning i stormen den ser En öppning i stormen den ser En lockelse inte bara på ytan Inte endast en färd, utan även ett mål Vad väntar mig under systrar nio? Vad döljer Rans döttrar för mig? [Chorus:] Här skall jag finna min ro Här skall jag finna min sinnesfrid Här skall jag för evigt vila och i Ägirs djupa salar min ångest begrava Ett sista offer för Njord Ett sista blot för välgång på färden En hemlighet som skall bli min Ingen ånger, vad böljorna giva [Repeat chorus] ----------------------------------------------- English Translation: The Mirror of the World Blue, grey, green for the eye The Mirror of the World, whereto the wings of longing carry A joy to behold, to open one’s mind Flying disease on black wings go In the night, the storm and wind Cloudless skies’ inner horizon smiles An opening in the storm it sees An opening in the storm it sees A temptation, not only on the surface Not just a journey, but a destination too What awaits me below the nine sisters? What are the Daughters of Ran hiding from me? [Chorus:] Here I shall find my peace Here I shall find my peace of mind Here I shall forever rest And bury my angst in the deep halls of Aegir One last sacrifice for Njord One last blót for the voyage’s success One secret which shall be mine No regret, what the waves will give [Repeat chorus] |

To be blessed by an ocean Takes it’s pain and sacrifice To reach where I am destined Takes an old man’s life With blood I soak my idols With Pride I set my sails I scan the furthest horizon For the shores I am aimed to find Mountains and caves of ice Yet a new land to find The voyager to be In the search for an own empire Onward towards the dark sea Set sail along with the serpent Anchor where none has been Face whatever our fears might be I fight the storms, the rain, the thunder I am my own navigator Exhaust, hunger thirst and blood Dragons bringing me forth Who could forsee That the sea was so dark Down here in my grave Ends a young mans life True men die in battle To feast ’til the last of days But down here in my grave My roaring won’t be heard |

5. | Ångestens högborg | 07:03 | Show lyrics |
I en kvalmfylld, andlig öken har jag sett dem gå Drabbade av själasoten, håglösa, med ilska i synen Det är som sorgen aldrig skulle lämna deras ögon Som om sinnet hade svartnat för evigt Sammanträngda på ytor små Lager på lager (i boningar grå) i ångestens högborg Under jorden hastar de – jagande sökande; ingenting finnande Varför stannar de aldrig upp? Innan ni er fredliga gömma finner I susande lundar tvingas även ni till vila Inte en stilla undran – en rasande fråga; Varför stannar ni aldrig upp? Oändligt upplyst – för alltid höljd i mörker Inga stjärnor ser jag lysa här Vilka skalder dikta i denna dimma? Vilka målare sina verk här färgar? Oändligt upplyst – för alltid höljd i mörker Vilka målare sina verk här färgar? ------------------------------------------------------------ English Translation: The Stronghold of Angst In a suffocating, spiritual desert I have seen them wander Struck by the soul-plague, listless, with anger in their gazes It is as if sorrow would never leave their eyes As if the mind had been blackened forever Compressed into small spaces Layer upon layer (in gray dwellings) in the stronghold of angst Below the ground they hurry - hunting, searching; finding nothing Why don’t they ever stop going? Before you find your peaceful hideouts In murmuring groves even you are forced to rest Not a calm wondering – a furious question: Why don’t you ever stop going? Endlessly enlightened – forever wrapped in darkness No stars do I see shining here What bards would write in this fog? What painters would colour their works here? Endlessly enlightened – forever wrapped in darkness No stars do I see shining here What painters would colour their works here? |

6. | The Giant’s Laughter | 05:19 | Show lyrics |
I live in the mountain hall deep under the earth Where Odin’s eye never has seen I hate the white aesir and the sons of earth Those who bow to gods, those whom I despise I enjoy nocturnal storms I tramp the grain of the fields I break the keels, I mislead the wanderer I enjoy when he fears (When the giant laughs) I can stand the day bright as it shines When valkyries wave their bloodred wings Oh, now beautiful the raven’s flight Above the battlefield And the sword chills a human heart Why to be innocent Daughter of Embla? Behold in the beast’s embrace The flower has withered Why are you fighting for your land Youth of the north? They sold your father’s grave for the perry gold [Lyrics inspired by the poem "Jätten", Esaias Tegnér (1782-1846)] |

Länge nog har era maskätna huvuden vilat på era veka axlar En längtande känsla sprider sig i mina nävar och lustan brinner Klinga stolt när ben möter stål, klinga stolt när sårsvetten droppar Länge nog har du väntat på att skilja maskätna huvuden från veka axlar [Chorus:] Djävlar anamma Svält och bedrövelse Pest och förintelse Död och förbannelse Inga tårar skall era förvridna, blödande, brutna kroppar väta Ingen älskarinna, släkt eller frände vid era lik skall sörja Ingen hjältars sal, ingen himmelsk fröjd när makter(na) (era) öden utmäta Blott spott och spe era eftermälen färga [Repeat chorus] Era gravar är passande att smutsa med mitt avskräde Era minnen är mina att bespotta med hat och hån Inga goda ord om de döda minner, inga ljusa minnen omtalas I mitt vansinne fann ni livets ruttna slut ----------------------------------------------------------------- English Translation: The Song of Madness Long enough have your worm-eaten heads rested upon your weak shoulders A longing feeling spreads in my fists and my lust is burning My blade is proud when bone meets steel, blade is proud when the blood drips Long enough have you waited to sever worm-eaten heads from weak shoulders [Chorus:] Devils and demons Famine and affliction Plague and annihilation Death and damnation No tears shall wet your distorted, bleeding, broken bodies No mistress, family or kinsman shall mourn by your corpses No hall of heroes, no heavenly joy when the powers decide your fates Merely spit and sneers colour your legacies [Repeat chorus] Your graves are fitting to soil with my excretions Your memories are mine to deride with hate and scorn No kind words are remembered of the dead, no light memories are mentioned In my madness you found the rotten end of life |

Aldrig skall ålder förtvina eller sätta sina spår Ni ska dit varken sol eller måne når Där sång blir till klagan och skratt blir till gråt Där smärta är evig och dagar är år Där honungen blir till salt i era sår Nastrands ormar som spyr ert er etter Skört är slottet men stark är min ruin Kräla ur min boning, lämna min gård ”Av asar och alfer som här inne äro Ingen i ord är din vän” Likstrandens ormar som spyr blod och etter Ni som blint trampar Draugs harg På knä i Eljudne mottag död mans dom Mot död och helsvite, erat öde och pinoplats Bärsärkargång mot de dödas helgedom Hammare och stål skall urkraften väcka I björnskorta mot Draugs harg Må nidingapestens veka nacke knäckas ”Hrungners dråpare skall dig till dödsriket skicka Långt under likgrinden ned” Mot död och helsvite, erat öde och pinoplats Långt under likgrinden ned Draugs harg, långt under likgrinden ned --------------------------------------------------------- English Translation: Draugr’s Altar Never will age wither or make its markings You are going where neither sun nor moon can reach Where song turns into lamentation and laughter into tears Where pain is eternal and days are years Where honey turns into salt in your wounds Nastrand’s worms who vomit out venom The castle is fragile but my ruin is strong Crawl from my dwelling, leave my homestead ”Of the Aesir and Elves who dwell in here No one is your kinsman” The Corpse Shore’s worms who vomit blood and venom You who blindly trample Draugr’s altars On your knees in Eljudne, receive a dead man’s judgement Towards death and hell, your fate and place of torment Berserkergang against the dead’s sanctuary Hammer and steel shall awaken the ancient power Bear-shirt (literal meaning of berserk) against Draugr’s altar May the nithing pole’s weak neck be broken "Hrugnir’s slayer will send you to the Kingdom of the Dead Far below the Gates of Death, deep down" Towards death and hell, your fate and place of torment Draugr’s altar!

Aldrig mer må vi talas vid Men på gastbacken hörs vår klagan Aldrig mer vi järtecken finna Vi mötas vid din gravöl Räfsans slit vid gårdars dörr Varslar om död så kall Nu digra liar svepa Likt en skarprättares verk [Chorus:] (x2) Här vandrar en pestlagen hop Här skådas krigets härjningar Här vilar en lukt av död Här frodas domedagens gissel Blida den med köttet, det fina Rena husen med gnideld Må nysått gräs den hindra Djurkadavrens stank den fräna Det blir inte ont om kläder men det skall råda brist på bräder Många kistor vi må bygga Ty pestens tid är här ---------------------------------------- English Translation: The Black Death Nevermore will we speak to each other But on the hill of ghosts our lament is heard Nevermore will we find omens We will meet for your funeral ale The toil of rakes by the farms’ doors Forboding such a cold death Now great scythes sweep Like the work of an executioner [Chorus:] (x2) Here wanders a plague-stricken crowd Here can be beheld the ravages of war Here lies a stench of death Here flourishes the scourge of the doomsday Appease it with the flesh, the pure Cleanse the houses with fire May newly sown grass hinder it The acrid stench of animal cadavers We will not run out of clothes But there will be a shortage of boards Many coffins we may build For the time of the plague is here |

3. | Världsspegeln | 04:52 | Show lyrics |
Blått, grått, grönt för ögat Världsspegeln, dit längtans vingar bär En fröjd att skåda, att sinnet öppna Flyende sot på svarta vingar far Om natten, stormen och vinden Molnfria vyers inre horisont ler En öppning i stormen den ser En öppning i stormen den ser En lockelse inte bara på ytan Inte endast en färd, utan även ett mål Vad väntar mig under systrar nio? Vad döljer Rans döttrar för mig? [Chorus:] Här skall jag finna min ro Här skall jag finna min sinnesfrid Här skall jag för evigt vila och i Ägirs djupa salar min ångest begrava Ett sista offer för Njord Ett sista blot för välgång på färden En hemlighet som skall bli min Ingen ånger, vad böljorna giva [Repeat chorus] ----------------------------------------------- English Translation: The Mirror of the World Blue, grey, green for the eye The Mirror of the World, whereto the wings of longing carry A joy to behold, to open one’s mind Flying disease on black wings go In the night, the storm and wind Cloudless skies’ inner horizon smiles An opening in the storm it sees An opening in the storm it sees A temptation, not only on the surface Not just a journey, but a destination too What awaits me below the nine sisters? What are the Daughters of Ran hiding from me? [Chorus:] Here I shall find my peace Here I shall find my peace of mind Here I shall forever rest And bury my angst in the deep halls of Aegir One last sacrifice for Njord One last blót for the voyage’s success One secret which shall be mine No regret, what the waves will give [Repeat chorus] |

4. | The Voyager | 05:12 | Show lyrics |
To be blessed by an ocean Takes it’s pain and sacrifice To reach where I am destined Takes an old man’s life With blood I soak my idols With Pride I set my sails I scan the furthest horizon For the shores I am aimed to find Mountains and caves of ice Yet a new land to find The voyager to be In the search for an own empire Onward towards the dark sea Set sail along with the serpent Anchor where none has been Face whatever our fears might be I fight the storms, the rain, the thunder I am my own navigator Exhaust, hunger thirst and blood Dragons bringing me forth Who could forsee That the sea was so dark Down here in my grave Ends a young mans life True men die in battle To feast ’til the last of days But down here in my grave My roaring won’t be heard |

5. | Ångestens högborg | 07:03 | Show lyrics |
I en kvalmfylld, andlig öken har jag sett dem gå Drabbade av själasoten, håglösa, med ilska i synen Det är som sorgen aldrig skulle lämna deras ögon Som om sinnet hade svartnat för evigt Sammanträngda på ytor små Lager på lager (i boningar grå) i ångestens högborg Under jorden hastar de – jagande sökande; ingenting finnande Varför stannar de aldrig upp? Innan ni er fredliga gömma finner I susande lundar tvingas även ni till vila Inte en stilla undran – en rasande fråga; Varför stannar ni aldrig upp? Oändligt upplyst – för alltid höljd i mörker Inga stjärnor ser jag lysa här Vilka skalder dikta i denna dimma? Vilka målare sina verk här färgar? Oändligt upplyst – för alltid höljd i mörker Vilka målare sina verk här färgar? ------------------------------------------------------------ English Translation: The Stronghold of Angst In a suffocating, spiritual desert I have seen them wander Struck by the soul-plague, listless, with anger in their gazes It is as if sorrow would never leave their eyes As if the mind had been blackened forever Compressed into small spaces Layer upon layer (in gray dwellings) in the stronghold of angst Below the ground they hurry - hunting, searching; finding nothing Why don’t they ever stop going? Before you find your peaceful hideouts In murmuring groves even you are forced to rest Not a calm wondering – a furious question: Why don’t you ever stop going? Endlessly enlightened – forever wrapped in darkness No stars do I see shining here What bards would write in this fog? What painters would colour their works here? Endlessly enlightened – forever wrapped in darkness No stars do I see shining here What painters would colour their works here? |

6. | The Giant’s Laughter | 05:19 | Show lyrics |
I live in the mountain hall deep under the earth Where Odin’s eye never has seen I hate the white aesir and the sons of earth Those who bow to gods, those whom I despise I enjoy nocturnal storms I tramp the grain of the fields I break the keels, I mislead the wanderer I enjoy when he fears (When the giant laughs) I can stand the day bright as it shines When valkyries wave their bloodred wings Oh, now beautiful the raven’s flight Above the battlefield And the sword chills a human heart Why to be innocent Daughter of Embla? Behold in the beast’s embrace The flower has withered Why are you fighting for your land Youth of the north? They sold your father’s grave for the perry gold [Lyrics inspired by the poem "Jätten", Esaias Tegnér (1782-1846)] |

Far åt helvete Jag vill aldrig se er igen Era tomma blickar och gapander käftar Får mig att må illa Era intellektuella yttranden Är prov på andlig mongolism Era stinkande kroppar Är viljelösa slavar under era lustar Era hjärtan är tomma skal Självbedrägeriets fästningar Självgodhetens högborgar Och av inget värde Pladdrande tungor och smackande käftar Ni är inte värda luften ni andas Marken ni går på blir otjänlig Kvinnor och barn, unga män och åldringar Fall på knän och mottag er dom Far åt helvete! Hör ni sanningen? Den låter som en dom Tro aldrig Att ni är något värda Låt hoppets vingar Förgås i flammor Ovan alrunan, under galgen Ägnar jag er en sista tanke Förvissad om att den yttersta dagen nalkas Mottar jag den dystre gästen Vem av er skall han drabba först? De som är födda till att drunkna Behöver icke frukta snaran Och drunkna skall ni I ett bråddjupt hav av eld och etter Dies irae, dies illa, Solvet saeclum in favilla --------------------------------------------- English Translation: Go to hell Go to hell I never want to see you again Your empty gazes and gaping jaws Make me feel ill Your intellectual statements Are proof of spiritual mongolism Your stinking bodies Are willingless slaves under your lusts Your hearts are empty shells The fortresses of self-deceit The strongholds of self-righteousness And nothing of worth Babbling tongues and clicking jaws You aren’t worthy of the air you breath The ground you walk on becomes unfit Women and children, young men and elders Fall on your knees and receive your judgement Go to hell! Can you hear the truth? It sounds like a judgement Don’t even think That you are worth anything Let the wings of hope Be consumed in flames Above the mandrake, below the gallows I devote a last thought to you Assured that the utmost day approaches I receive the gloomy guest Whom of you shall he afflict first? Those who are born to drown Need not fear the noose And drown you shall In a precipitous sea of fire and venom Dies irae, dies illa, Solvet saeclum in favilla |

Far åt helvete Jag vill aldrig se er igen Era tomma blickar och gapander käftar Får mig att må illa Era intellektuella yttranden Är prov på andlig mongolism Era stinkande kroppar Är viljelösa slavar under era lustar Era hjärtan är tomma skal Självbedrägeriets fästningar Självgodhetens högborgar Och av inget värde Pladdrande tungor och smackande käftar Ni är inte värda luften ni andas Marken ni går på blir otjänlig Kvinnor och barn, unga män och åldringar Fall på knän och mottag er dom Far åt helvete! Hör ni sanningen? Den låter som en dom Tro aldrig Att ni är något värda Låt hoppets vingar Förgås i flammor Ovan alrunan, under galgen Ägnar jag er en sista tanke Förvissad om att den yttersta dagen nalkas Mottar jag den dystre gästen Vem av er skall han drabba först?

Can you hear the truth? It sounds like a judgement Don’t even think That you are worth anything Let the wings of hope Be consumed in flames Above the mandrake, below the gallows I devote a last thought to you Assured that the utmost day approaches I receive the gloomy guest Whom of you shall he afflict first? Those who are born to drown Need not fear the noose And drown you shall In a precipitous sea of fire and venom Dies irae, dies illa, Solvet saeclum in favilla |

Ett tusende år av hat att regna likt ett livselixir När nidingars band har upplösts När urgammal jord har kluvits itu Varde blod, varde eld, varde död Den brännande solens skördegång fäller regent, i högmod krönt Den vredgade jordens fauna störtar dess narr, smyckad i guld Varde blod, varde eld, varde död En sista litania ekar högt vid de skamlösas härd Märkta, plågade och brända mottaren sista, glödgad fällande dom Från blodsbestrukna strupar Från askgrånade händer Djupt ur ruttnande märg Mot etterdränkta famnar Varde blod, varde eld, varde död En marritt mot tidig skymning, en invit till nattens sista dans När balen är över, plågas gäster i middagshettan med bly i sitt bröst Varde blod, varde eld, varde död I ett högstämt kätteri smädas nu de arvlösas lott En trehövdad död för dörren Varde blod, varde eld, varde död Varde liv, varde död [Lyrics by: Lindgren] [Music by: Sjölund, Rydén, Löf] |

3. | Isolation | 05:54 | Show lyrics |
Isolation, the breaking of bonds, a distant beckoning. Isolation! Salvation, the womb of rebirth foul and sickening. Salvation! When friend and enemy consolidate covenants are broken, treachery erases all if it ever was. A deception that wrecked the idols layed cities waste and brought sanctuaries to desolation. Isolation found its offering and consumed all abundant and old, with a nucleus burnt our fate is forseen. The sufferer fell with fiends and altered amongst shades, he became his own people. Isolation, the breaking of bonds, a distant beckoning. Isolation! Salvation, the womb of rebirth foul and sickening. Isolation! The antagonist needs not yeld nor answer or follow, yet them of abhor became his rulers. By emnity forced to embrace plauges and pestilence, forced to walk in contrary to heralds. The cure should be simple, find the core and smoke it out. Seek the heart and putrid flesh shall preach no more. When the bridge collapsed upon your sons and daughters, whatever awaits is welcomed with open arms. Isolation, salvation! Isolation, the breaking of bonds, a distant beckoning. Salvation, the womb of rebirth foul and sickening. |

I heard the last root break, and the steps nine I felt the branch that fell and the slithering snake Wind from the west - speak Wind from the east - speak Wind from the south - speak Wind from the north - destroy I saw the wolf coming in the light of a burning blade I embraced the end, deep down the buried water Devoured were the sun, by birth another was given A beautiful burning daughter, rising proud towards the sky As the earth trembled, and the stars they fell Deep down the buried water, I shall become the eye Over the green grass, Gods they wander Are we descendents of them? Who suffered the flames and the kingdom of death or the stillborn of the last breathing two Them who lived of dew If so... I am becoming the eye Wind from the west - speak Wind from the east - speak Wind from the south - speak Wind from the north - destroy [Lyrics by: Kristensson] [Music by: Sjölund] |

Om eld, svavel och glödande Vind äro den kalk som skall, Dem av tillblivelsen bliva given Må då din ängels flammande klinga bringa Hädangång och monumental ödeläggelse Tre vintrar - två solar Skoningslöst och ögonblickligen bara Hand på denna kväljande smittohärd Denna vämjeliga avkomling Och besudlade anförvant Tre vintrar - två solar Det av vikt kan icke längre finna Skugga under skapelsens vågskål Den strävar dröjande men obönhörlig Mot en brinnande horisont Som dammkorn på lien, Änglars skördetid och världens slut Det av värde äro en atom I betydenhet till själlöst förfall Så klyv den atomen du avskyvärda broder, Klyv den igen och igen I människosonens skugga Blir var fiende till vän Stirra in i solen, vidriga broder, stirra in i solen Låt oss bedja inför en brinnande horisont Nu låt oss be Må bäcken som gav själen dådkraft Bli till brinnande tjära Må regnet, det renande och livsgivande Bli till hagel och eldkol Tre vintrar - två solar Betvinga var träd, Betvinga var strå att blomma Ut och dö en sista gång Svavel och salt, Ingen mylla eller grönskande jord Storm och hagel, Ingen tillbedjan eller andefattigt ord Tre vintrar - två solar Det av vikt kan icke längre finna Skugga under skapelsens vågskål Den strävar dröjande men obönhörlig Mot en brinnande horisont [Lyrics by: Kristensson] [Music by: Löf, Lindgren] |

1. | En sista litania | 07:10 | Show lyrics |
Ett tusende år av hat att regna likt ett livselixir När nidingars band har upplösts När urgammal jord har kluvits itu Varde blod, varde eld, varde död Den brännande solens skördegång fäller regent, i högmod krönt Den vredgade jordens fauna störtar dess narr, smyckad i guld Varde blod, varde eld, varde död En sista litania ekar högt vid de skamlösas härd Märkta, plågade och brända mottaren sista, glödgad fällande dom Från blodsbestrukna strupar Från askgrånade händer Djupt ur ruttnande märg Mot etterdränkta famnar Varde blod, varde eld, varde död En marritt mot tidig skymning, en invit till nattens sista dans När balen är över, plågas gäster i middagshettan med bly i sitt bröst Varde blod, varde eld, varde död I ett högstämt kätteri smädas nu de arvlösas lott En trehövdad död för dörren Varde blod, varde eld, varde död Varde liv, varde död [Lyrics by: Lindgren] [Music by: Sjölund, Rydén, Löf] |

En stilla storm över den svedda jorden Där stålet svept just utan nåd Ett vittrande regn sköljer synd ur marken nu vajar blott en fältskärs standar Bland askan från nedbrunna facklor vilar mantal högt likt den offerrök... ...som stiger mot himlens rymd Ett monument över vunnen slagmark När lien skaldar om dess gång En ode över ett gravfäst öde Från stormens öga, ljuder rent En sista spjutsång har skallat Bland dem ledda i fasa och i dom Ett otal av sköldar som har splittrats Ett otal, de skrien som har kvävts Ingen beträder den jord som ska fylla Dessa öppna och varma sår... ...som ska brinna in till gryningstid Utan värn, i ett töcken Faller sista garden, i saktmod En febervandring mot en gapande avgrund Många fasor, blott en dom Ett monument över vunnen slagmark När lien skaldar om dess gång En ode över ett gravfäst öde Från stormens öga, ljunder rent [Lyrics by: Lindgren] [Music by: Lindgren, Rydén, Löf] |

3. | Isolation | 05:54 | Show lyrics |
Isolation, the breaking of bonds, a distant beckoning. Isolation! Salvation, the womb of rebirth foul and sickening. Salvation! When friend and enemy consolidate covenants are broken, treachery erases all if it ever was. A deception that wrecked the idols layed cities waste and brought sanctuaries to desolation. Isolation found its offering and consumed all abundant and old, with a nucleus burnt our fate is forseen. The sufferer fell with fiends and altered amongst shades, he became his own people. Isolation, the breaking of bonds, a distant beckoning. Isolation! Salvation, the womb of rebirth foul and sickening. Isolation! The antagonist needs not yeld nor answer or follow, yet them of abhor became his rulers. By emnity forced to embrace plauges and pestilence, forced to walk in contrary to heralds. The cure should be simple, find the core and smoke it out. Seek the heart and putrid flesh shall preach no more. When the bridge collapsed upon your sons and daughters, whatever awaits is welcomed with open arms. Isolation, salvation! Isolation, the breaking of bonds, a distant beckoning. Salvation, the womb of rebirth foul and sickening. |

Ärren som skimrar i glödande rött belyser vårt samvetes pina och kval När sårens svett har torkat ur jord, tynar den börda som sinnet har tyngt Bort i en osande, dödslik stank, i det bråddjup där guld har försakats Det köttsliga skal som rasar i virvlar, i en avgrund att skriva vår sista epilog Av skammen, så länge de tärts Nu störtas den värsta av plågor I världsalltets ättestupa Ur tiden, mot lindring och nåd Ett aktat slut för de nu utlevade Vid hemsökta klippors gapande svalg Ett vördat slut för de lidande väntar vid fullbordad gryning Aldrig mer ska frånfällets klinga vaktas av deras febriga blod Ej mer stungen av bitande stål och lämnad vind för våg Lyd, du skälvande kreatur Med kaos i rygg du ingenting räds Mot förgängelse du vaggas i slumrande takt Med min dolk i din rygg, omfamna ditt fördärv Av skammen, så länge de tärts Nu störtas den värsta av plågor I världsalltets ättestupa Ur tiden, mot lindring och nåd [Lyrics by: Lindgren] [Music by: Lindgren, Löf] |

I morgontimma var skapelsen ny En arla vandring längs strändernas stråk Lufthav som strålar av gryningens ljus Vind som kyler den grånande hud Ett förskönande kalls himlavalv Över den vidsträckta vyn Med fynd av drivved som svept in mot land Den djärvaste av tanke föds Solskivan ståtar högt Bakom skuggornas danande gång Det urtida träd som andas Som viskar ut sin gudaande Bark som murknat och fallit isär En gestalt som närts utan ljus Ögon som öppnas än utan liv Än utan syfte och mål Ask och Embla Ask och Embla De ödeslösa Med havet som slutpunkt, dess ändlösa grav Hand i hand samman mot en ny värld Räds ej den gäld som betalats i guld Men dömd till det pris som betalas i järn Forna vintrars skare Har nu glömt inför årets skörd Rämnande murar, smältande tjäle Ett ok som släpats i gyttjan Det finns ingen rättvisa Ty det finns bara oss Gårdagens slit betyder föga Inför morgonens dom Visa mig det band som brustit Visa oss dess spruckna fäste Flitens tid har tystnat Där pålar på nytt slås i jord Ask och Embla Ask och Embla De ödeslösa När Gautr gjöt liv, de befriade kroppar När Gautr gjöt liv, de befriade själar Varmt blod i ström genom ådror Värmen från dess källa, att skönjas bland lövverk Stränder av svavel, en spegel så grå Dränkt utan färger och liv... ...Av de ödeslösa... |
