The warming sun returns again

And melts away the snow

The sea is freed from icy chains

Winter is letting go



Standing on the ocean side

We can hear the waves

Calling us out with tide

To sail into our fate



Odin! Guide our ships

Our axes, spears and swords

Guide us through storms that whip

And in brutal war



Our ships await us by the shore

Time has come to leave

Our country, family and homes

For riches in the east



Some of us won't return

But that won't bring us down

Our fate is written in the web

Woven by the Norse



A ram is sacrificed

Across the long ship's bow

And as we set our sails

A strong breeze starts to blow



It carries us out to sea

With hope of fame and pride

And glorious all will be

That with sword in hand will die



Odin! Guide our ships

Our axes, spears and swords

Guide us through storms that whip

And in brutal war



Odin! Guide our ships

Our axes, spears and swords

Guide us through storms that whip

And in brutal war
