folkearth - heathenpride lyrics

Loading...

once a mighty king ruled in a northern land
his enemies he fought with steel and iron hand
so many tales were told, his name a glorious sound
“god-like he is” they said, and by no christian laws was bound

long ago in a northern land
long ago in a northern land

one day they came across the nordic sea
the man of the cross and camped beside a tree
which was called a sacred one for all thy heathen hearts
where sacrifices were given to their northern forefathers gods

long ago in a northern land
long ago in a northern land

the elder and wise men amongst them
watched distrustful to all those
of the foreign men with their swords in hand
and the mighty tree was felled

and the mighty tree was felled

some days gone by and the elder men disappointed
they found a grave with a wooden cross upon
so they all gathered at a place near the sea at night
they all sat around their king, and a campfire gave it’s light

long ago in a northern land
long ago in a northern land

first words were spoken by a maiden of great beauty
she whispered silent words to freya and began to speak
her iceblue eyes filled with tears as she told them all what happened
in the woods three days ago when two christian men raped her body

many people told what happened and what was done by the
christian men;
a girl was burned and three farmers died, nine children were
never seen again

the king drew his sword and saddled his black horse
they gave a sacrifice to odin and to tyr, the gods of their war
that might before the morning of
revenge!

the stars were shining from a dark black sky
their swords reflected the light of the moon
their torches burned red, the flames blazed up high
the hour of their raid will come soon

revenge!
revenge!

as the sun at last arose crimson, beyond the nordic sea
they all stood in armour, with helmet and sword
and with certainty of what was forever will be

a furore normannorum libera nos domine

the bells of the christian churches tolled
woke them up so much to late
two ravens high above watched this bl–dy deeds
when the steel becomes their fate

revenge!
revenge!

after hours the most of the christian men
by the northmen all were slayed
the sun high above was shining bright
that day of heathenpride

a furore normannorum libera nos domine
