lyrics

Our race was born for warfare
We raid in far-off foreign lands
To bring their riches home within our hands

We have no fear of dying
Our lives will end in fire and blood
We'll live and die as Odin says we should

Allfather accept us into your golden hall
We'll die in your honour
Our names will never fall
Death is a better way than living as a slave
No viking should ever stay in chains

We refuse to live in chains
It would be as Hel
For there's no glory in a cage
A prison or a cell

Death and glory
Not a cage
Fight for honour
Never chains

We've never fought a battle
Against a truly mighty foe
We've spread this fear of war since long ago
But if we fought an army
We thought that we could not defeat
Our noble sacrifice would be so sweet

Allfather accept us into your golden hall
We'll die in your honour
Our names will never fall
Death is a better way than living as a slave
No viking should ever stay in chains

We refuse to live in chains
It would be as Hel
For there's no glory in a cage
A prison or a cell

And we could not secure our place
In Odin's golden hall
We must stare death in the face
In battle we will fall
