Northern Covenant Lyrics


When the rosy-fingered dawn rises high

Faces carved by cold look at the sky

It’s time to ask out loud with proud eyes

(The) favor of gods before a last goodbye

And no one knows the fate of Norns

Then together aboard the longship, side by side

Brothers bound by an oath subscribed in blood

Until time ends we’ll fight hard

(And the) glory belongs to Odin, as we know,

But victory, it depends on our sword

Strong and bold like ancient kings

Who lead from above, northern covenant

We plunder well all the lands and seas

Comes from afar, (the) northern covenant

Mourn the people betrayed by the sea all their dead

In battle we expect a bloodbath worthy of being sung

It leaves no chances the Jomsborg’s rule:

To die as cowards or to die just as gods

Holding the cold steel into their own hands

Strong and bold like ancient kings

Who lead from above, northern covenant

We plunder well all the land and the seas

Comes from afar, (the) northern covenant
