Under Northern Lights

Intro (Chant, tief & rhythmisch)
Skål! Skål! Skål!
Odin guide our way!
Skål! Skål! Skål!
Through night and flame!
Verse 1
The wind speaks out our ancient names,
Across the frozen sea,
Ice on skin, fire within,
We are born to be free.
The mountains watch like elder gods,
In pale and burning light,
Our footprints blaze on broken snow,
We march into the night.
Pre-Chorus
Hear the ravens call our fate,
Hear the drums at heaven’s gate!
Chorus (großer Chor, sehr singbar)
Under northern lights and ice we stand,
Steel in our hearts, blades in our hands!
Let the thunder speak our names tonight,
We do not fall — we break the ice!
Hey! Hey!
We are the storm, we are the fire!
Hey! Hey!
Sons of the north, we rise higher!
Verse 2
The sea is black like broken shields,
But we don’t turn away,
For in our chests the old runes burn,
And guide us through the grey.
Shield to shield, we hold the line,
Brothers side by side,
We sing the songs of dying kings
And laugh in face of night.
Pre-Chorus
Hear the ravens, Huginn, Muninn cry,
Odin’s eyes across the sky!
Chorus
Under northern lights and ice we stand,
Steel in our hearts, blades in our hands!
Let the thunder speak our names tonight,
We do not fall — we break the ice!
Hey! Hey!
We are the storm, we are the fire!
Hey! Hey!
Sons of the north, we rise higher!
Bridge (ritueller, langsam, Aufbau)
When winter eats the dying sun,
And hope is hard to find,
We carve our fate in ash and stone,
And leave our fear behind.
If one day we should fall in snow,
Our names will never die,
For we live on in rune and song,
In wolf and raven cry.
Chant Break (Call & Response, tribal)
Odin! Tyr! Thor!
Guide our steel to war!
Odin! Tyr! Thor!
We return once more!
Skål! Skål! Skål!
Final Chorus (noch größer, mehrstimmig vorstellbar)
Under northern lights and ice we stand,
Steel in our hearts, blades in our hands!
Let the thunder speak our names tonight,
We do not fall — we break the ice!
Hey! Hey!
We are the storm, we are the fire!
Hey! Hey!
Children of the north, go higher!
Outro (episch, langsam, chantend)
Ice in blood… fire in soul…
Ravens guide us… make us whole…
Skål! Skål! Skål!
We rise… we rise… we rise…
