And so we beat them on a Field of gore and bone
But there is a price to pay, The English should have known

Aethelred, oh Aethelred, Your kingdom now is gone
The King of Denmark takes your crown, Oh you should have known

VERSE:
[FIG: 3]
We burn the churches and the cross
The serpents of the crucified, their lives are at a loss

Sven prays to Odin and to Thor
The power of the ancient gods who dwelt here long before

And so we hunt those who have burnt the oak trees down
The heathen roots run deep, the ancient gods are still around

Crucified, oh crucified, oh you should have known
Your time has not yet come so we burn your houses down

PD-C HORUS:

The northern sea he rules, Denmark and England he unites
The Norsemen rule the waves and King Sven holds all the might
The Forked Beard he rules and like the devil we will fight
We rule the waves Fear the Viking's pride

Hey! Hey! We are ruling the waves
