Northen

The mists of time move onward
Reveal the land and skies
The ice recedes far northward
To forge before my eyes.

Great kingdoms long forgotten
Dead kings who ruled this earth
Northern men borne by gods
Whose doom the stars decried.

Where did they sail? To the sky?
The gods, live again, and never die
Fates, tell again, of ancient gods
The rise, the reign, of Northen kind.

The north men sail to new lands
Far where the ravens fly
Abandoned gods sleep restless
Rekindle ancient fires.

The ice and snow march forward
All that lives shall die
The dead sun sets in twilight
Surt's fires reach the skies.

Where, do we sail? To the ice?
Return again, to pay the price
The hammer fades, the cross is nigh
My father's wish, has come to die.

Nine ages past when the north kings ruled the earth
Nine worlds collapse under the sun
The wolf age comes again, and the frozen throne is raised
The light of the sun shines again... On the Northen
The light of the sun shines on the Northen
The light of sun shines on you.

Where, do we sail? To the ice?
Return again, to pay the price
The hammer fades, the cross is nigh
My father's wish, has come to die.
