lyrics

To Vinland they sailed!
To Glory and Death!
Valhalla awaits them!
Vikings on raid!

In this freezing day,
on the battlefield,
there they stand so still,
in their dying time.
Feeling no remorse
of the clash they fought,
awaiting the Valkyries
to send them to Valhalla.

Odin's eye is on them
they know it is true
in these forests so strange
on this distant west land

They came as raiders
and *they* found wild men
with weird clothes and faces
wielding bow and short axe

To Vinland they sailed!
To Glory and Death!
Valhalla awaits them!
Vikings on raid!

The Vikings cried out loud
to call the strenght of Thor
and with the fire of war
bursting through their veins
hacked and slashed enemies
almost won the battle
but they were so few
brave as hell but outnumbered

So they lost and died
but with honor and pride
They won their place in Valhalla
on the shores of Vinland!

To Vinland they sailed!
To Glory and Death!
Valhalla awaits them!
Vikings on raid!
