1. OUR PAGAN HEARTS REBORN

A blood red sun will rise before us
We won’t let our lands be crossed
No church, book or sword will break us
What’s ours we will not give up

The tales told in a golden age
A time of heathen ways
Now our lands cloaked in fear
Hunted down, the age of tears

Rivers of life have turned to grey
All what once was has gone away
The mountains we’ve climbed, the seas we’ve sailed
This time of ending has fueled our hate

Some pray to the gods in hope
That they will clean our lands
Though with pagan strength and hearts of steel
That is the path for us to go

We ride through the vast forest
Following the footsteps of our hope
Hope of a time we have heard and read
Though never was it ours to live

We will ride towards the mountains
This day we take what was not theirs to claim
And we will restore the altars of our gods
So our pagan hearts can be reborn


2. FIRE OF FREEDOM

Rise, age of remembrance
Rise, winds of war

Rise, spirits of forgotten
Rise, and raise your swords

Hear me, I call the eye of thunder
I stand before thee, gods of land and sea
Shadow has forced our time to hide in darkness
To await a light, a fire to set it free

When in these times one must believe
It is from darkness our time must leave
And when the risen will head our call
Bring forth the end, bring forth their fall

Hear me, for I have heard the voice of wonder
I stood before the valley of the deep
Refound the strength and honour to overthrow those
Who put our burning fire to sleep

Having written down the battles
With the blood I left behind
No-one, nothing, shall redeem me
from the task I shall now find

I shall now find
The fire of freedom


3. MOONFALL, SUNRISE

(Instrumental)


4. SPIRIT, WE ARE ONE

Spirit of the forest, walk with me
Through the woods of remembrance
Stay with me in the dark
Wanderers of the nightfall,
Walk with me to the stars
Await with me the coming of the sun

We are one

Spirit of the battles, fight with me
On this day of bloodshed
Onward to our death
Ride on towards glory,
Hold the banner of our fate
Await with me the coming of the moon

Een stem in het duister
Een stem in het licht
Een weg in het duister
Een weg in het licht

Spirit of the sky, bring me new horizons
Guide me to the gates of eternity
A siren with the wind,
Lead me to the forgotten
Await with me, stay with me

Come, spirit we are one


5. FAREWELL TO THE LIVING

Distant horizon, closing in on us
Riding towards the mountains, a final road
The war we leave behind us, memories we hold close
Although we feel it coming, we won't fall

The bloodshed took its toll on us
Face the fate, the life-death river we cross
We start the journey towards the gods
Face the fate, the life-death river we cross

Green fields, a sunrise of gold
Gazing at our past, suddenly all runs cold
We leave our sins behind us, our pride forever strong
Although we feel it coming, we won't fall

The gates are open
Valhalla here we are

The bloodshed took its toll on us
Face the fate, the life-death river we’ve crossed
We start the journey towards the gods
Face the fate, the life-death river we’ve crossed

Farewell to the living
The journey to Valhalla has begun


6. FATE'S ILLUSUIN

(Instrumental)


7. WE WILL RISE

We cannot see the horizon is near
Our eyes are blinded, the rain hides our tears
All that we've lost, all in hope to arrive
Now we shall see if the hope we had dies

We will rise tonight
In honour of our kingdom, we will risk our lives
Listen to the forest, listen to her call
Await the final judgment, await the final dawn

Now is the time for our glory to shine
At the gates of eternity we’ve arrived
For sins we've all paid, our blood has been shed
Now we shall see what lies at the end

Never have we doubted our fate
No fear could bring us down
We’ve fought, we've bled, and we never gave up
The night was our crown
We believed in all the lies we've read
This betrayal feeds our hate
For endless times we will ride the sky
If we are denied the final gate

We will ride the sky

We will rise


8. BURIED IN OUR LANDS

We are far away but not forlorn
Our wives and our children across the waves
Long was the journey to bring us here
Fighting for freedom and our fate
Deep in these lands we sound our horns
Signal to raise the banners and our blades
We are far away but not forlorn
Our hearts left behind across the waves

Bring us back to our homeland
Sail us home across the waves
‘Cause we are not forgotten
We remain strong with our fate

We are far away but not forlorn
Our banners moving proudly with the wind
Never will we lay our dead to rest
Far from our freedom and our lands
The ravens that fly across our heads
An omen of victory ahead
We are far away but not forlorn
Our hearts left behind across the waves

Never shall we rest before we see
That our homeland is what we’ll reach
Hearts filled with remembrance
Return to what we left behind
Start- and ending place of our lives
Hearts filled with remembrance

We will not be buried far away
Not forgotten, all shall know our names

Buried in our lands, our hearts far away
