[For as long as the grass grows
For as long as the stream flows
And the sun shines down unto those
***
For how long the wind blows
And the sky is blue above us]
O, I am a man and I hold in my hand my fate
Free as the wind as if even
I had wings that carried me
Still in the middle of the night
Even I will need light to guide me
So I turn my face to the sky from
Where he with one eye is watching over me
My fathers’ gods — I ride for you
My fathers’ gods — I fight for you
My fathers’ gods — I die for you
My fathers’ gods — I am coming through to you
My fathers’ gods — I am yours
Through blood by thunder
Sound of wings in the air and
His ravens fly near to lead me
So I will not fail to ride down the trail
Long time destined for me
Long before I was born
O, can you not see it is all
Carved in the tree of fate
That a son of the north must forfill
His destined course to
Follow the bond of blood
[Bond of blood Bond of blood
Bond of blood Bond of blood
Bond of blood Bond of blood
Bond of blood Bond of blood
Bond of blood Bond of blood]
