On the western shores A ritual of the hunt It begins the game Lives it will stunt The skaal shall pay Revenge swift and blunt To bring favor From dark gods Granted power To tip the odds Lord of the hunters Waits for thee Conjure the spirit And slay the beast But if you fail Obscurity In the old woods Dark and deep it's bowels Screams in the darkness And unearthly howls Carried on the wind Cold and bitter the sound To bring favor From dark gods Granted power To tip the odds Lord of the hunters Waits for thee Conjure the spirit And slay the beast But if you fail Obscurity
