[The Man From Hordaland]

|
Waves are cutting like a knife of time
|
On the slippery rocks that still stands besides the shore
|
Two eyes are eyeing the seas
|
Towards the seas that once brought his ancestors glory
|
|
A lonely mind is longing
|
For the raising of sails
|
A swordarm is longing hungrily
|
To cut the throats of cowards
|
|
A forgotten treasure is now recovered
|
Brought out from the darkness of Midgard
|
Its powers will never again disappear
|
It is guarded by a man from Hordaland
|
|
A night of sorrow will soon be over
|
Memories from ancient times will glow
|
A wind blows away the dust from an ancient sword
|
Two ravens will predict his return
|
|
The sets in the west
|
He lifts his proud face
|
He looks towards the North Star
|
