Lyrics
1. AURORA
(Instrumental)
2. WINTER STORM VIGILANTES
In the realm of frost and bitter cold
Where winter's wrath begins to unfold
There dwell the brave, the valiant few
Winter storm vigilantes, mighty and true
Through the blizzards, through the storms, they won't let evil grow
With frost in their veins and fire in their hearts
They fight the darkness, tearing evil apart
Their winged beasts soar through the frigid air
Majestic and swift, with fiery manes they wear
With snowflakes as their armor glints
On horses of steel they ride to victory
In the moonlit snow, they take their stand
Protectors of this frozen land
Their hearts are cold but they carry the flame
Winter storm vigilantes, is their name
In the depths of winter's biting embrace
They chase injustice, a relentless race
Through frozen valleys and mountain peaks
Winter storm vigilantes, justice they seek
Through the blizzards, through the storms, they won't let evil grow
With frost in their veins and fire in their hearts
They fight the darkness, tearing evil apart
Oh, can you see them fly
High across the skies
Their swords shine in the moonlight
The enchanted flame in the night
Guiding them forward, their purpose in sight
On steeds of steel, they ride with pride
Winter storm vigilantes, the heroes who won't ever hide
As winter yields to the coming spring
The vigilantes' legacy, a tale to sing
Their steel horses rest until the next call
Winter storm vigilantes, the protectors of all
Through the blizzards, through the storms, they won't let evil grow
With frost in their veins and fire in their hearts
They fight the darkness, tearing evil apart
Winter storm vigilantes!
3. LONG COLD WINTER OF SORROW AND STRIFE
A flame divine, gods placed in men's care
To battle the frost, to banish despair
The days are grim and hearts turn cold
And even an act of kindness can lead to death and sorrow
The signs are clear, the dawn has come
The summer of our time shall soon be gone
The cold days are closing in
The bitter chill, it seems within
The trees stand bare, their leaves long gone
The earth is frozen, nothing moves on
The Sun is weak, its light so faint
As the world succumbs to winter's restraint
Weary wanderer
Of these dire times
Come and rest for a while
The long cold winter of sorrow and strife
Heal your tired soul by the embracing fire
We'll sing to remember and we'll drink to forget
The love, the loss and those who sailed into the last sunset
In the frozen wasteland, he'll forge his fate
A wanderer no more, he'll conquer with hate
Through the fires of vengeance, his path is now clear
Into the heart of the storm, he'll head without fear
Weary wanderer
Of these dire times
Come and rest for a while
The long cold winter of sorrow and strife
Heal your tired soul by the embracing fire
We'll sing to remember and we'll drink to forget
The love, the loss and those who sailed into the last sunset
Hear how the north wind howls, a mournful cry
See how the snow falls from the darkening sky
Before my eyes, the flames did rise
In crackling hearts, they mesmerize
They licked the skies with tongues of gold
A testament to the power they hold
The long cold winter
The long cold winter of sorrow and strife
Heal your tired soul by the embracing fire
We'll sing to remember and we'll drink to forget
The love, the loss and those who sailed into the last sunset
4. FATHERLAND
In the shadows of a mountain
A fearless guard is hidden and alert
From the darkening horizon
From high above, closing in, an imminent threat
The sound of the battle horns
The beat of the drums of war
Remind us what we are fighting for
Attack, Sons Of The North!
Heathen pride
Will not bend
Will not die
Will fight until the end
The songs of freedom
Over the thousand lakes
Understand,
We have to stand
Until the final man
For Fatherland
Times were different
When our sails struck fear in enemies' hearts
These cowards talk of honour
But flee with their winged beasts of metal
Archers, release the rain of fire!
Heathen pride
Will not bend
Will not die
Will fight until the end
The songs of freedom
Over the thousand lakes
Understand,
We have to stand
Until the final man
For Fatherland
On the eve of the battle, the stars align
The outnumbered gather, under the Northern sign
The ground rumbles and clashing the steel
No surrender! We'll die as we lived...free!
In the face of conquerors' might,
The true warriors stand and fight
For freedom, honour and ancient lore,
We'll defend our land forevermore
Heathen pride
Will not bend
Will not die
Will fight until the end
The songs of freedom
Over the thousand lakes
Understand,
We have to stand
Until the final man
For Fatherland
5. SCARS IN MY HEART
We danced beneath the starry sky,
The love was pure and true,
But now you're gone, and all I have,
Are memories of you
The cold wind blows across my face,
It whispers your name in my ear,
I close my eyes and feel your embrace,
But I know that you're not here
Oh, my love, where have you gone?
Why did you leave me here?
Underneath the Northern star,
I shed a cold lonely tear
Oh, my love, will I see you again in the Hall of Gods?
You take away all the pain
And heal the scars in my heart
Last night the moon was full
I walked along our shore
Where the sky meets the sea
We vowed our eternal love
A gentle breeze in my hair
When I watch the Sun rise
A sense of solace washes over me
Making my spirit fly
I know our love transcends, beyond the veil of death
My heart aches, but I will cherish every remaining breath
The snowflakes falling from the sky
Remind me of the tears
That I have cried
For the memories of us
I won't ever let them die
Oh, my love, where have you gone?
Why did you leave me here?
Underneath the Northern star,
I shed a cold lonely tear
Oh, my love, will I see you again in the Hall of Gods?
You take away all the pain
And heal the scars in my heart
6. RESISTENTIA
With spirits, our allies, we'll defend the wisdom of old forever
For their laws, we shall never bend
Our resistance shall never end
7. THE HOWL
In the land of brave warriors, our proud clan always stood tall,
We heed the ancient call, for years we fought but the evil grew
Nature cries for the wisdom of old, now forgotten, forever lost
Oh, world, hear my howl, see my light in the sky
I shall find the one, who will set your world on fire
Oh, run, all the lost ones, your rule ends today
For the rightful vengeance, the old world shall rise again!
Through the whispers of time, I saw the decay,
The spirits wept, their voices dismayed
With one final deed, I'll break free of my chains,
Transcend to a spirit wolf, unbound by the pain
Oh, world, hear my howl, see my light in the sky
I shall find the one, who will set your world on fire
Oh, run, all the lost ones, your rule ends today
For the rightful vengeance, the old world shall rise again!
The spirits guide me, their presence, a light
To seek a soul worthy, to join the fight
In twilight's embrace, I began my final quest
Through valleys and mountains,
I roam from East to West
I will not rest
Until I find him
Under the gaze of the moon,
He'll find the chosen one,
With a heart of valour,
Beneath the winter sun,
With spirits, his witness, he'll invoke the sacred rite,
The magic of the old and a warrior's might
Together we march, through battles we wade,
As spirit and mortal, our strengths now allied,
The oppressors shall falter, their reign to an end,
For the old world's wisdom, we shall defend
Oh, world, hear my howl, see my light in the sky
I shall find the one, who will set your world on fire
Oh, run, all the lost ones, your rule ends today
For the rightful vengeance, the old world shall rise again!
8. FROM ORDER TO CHAOS
In icy wastelands, lost and forlorn,
A silent outcast wanders alone
A tale of betrayal, blood and exile
Some secrets should've been buried until the end of time
In the light of moon so pale
He walks the frozen lands, feeling only hate
His footsteps leave no trace behind,
He is barely alive but refuses to die
Once he stood among the brave, a valiant soul
His name was erased from the walls in the heroe's halls
When envy's seed took root and spread
When his blade rose, not just honour bled
I'll rise again, from ice and snow,
No matter how far I must go,
I might be an outcast, scorned and alone,
But I shall return and claim my rightful throne
And they shall all bow before their new King
I know the secrets of magic and steel
I know that vengeance is my destiny
I shall not fear, I shall not bend
I shall be bold and defy death itself
He fought his way and fell on his knees in the eye of a storm
In a deafening silence, he heard a howling wolf
"Some Gods love injustice
Some Gods love hate
But all men are just pawns in their games
The powers he gained
The visions he saw
No longer afraid of death
He knew what had to be done"
He can taste the blood
He can hear the screams
He can see the flames rising high
Commanding the elements
Reaching beyond time
As he runs through the frozen night
I know the secrets of magic and steel
I know vengeance is my destiny
I shall call the fire from the skies
I shall return to see the fear in their eyes
I know the secrets of magic and steel
I know vengeance is my destiny
I shall call the fire from the skies
I shall return to see the fear in their eyes
I know the secrets of magic and steel
I know vengeance is my destiny
I shall destroy with frozen winds
In a rain of fire they shall scream
And they shall all bow before me

(Instrumental)
10. VICTORIOUS
A bad omen in the sky
A light from beyond
Assumes kataklysmic doom to come
The Beast of the North Folk
And the castaway approach
Winter Storm Vigilantes, will not run
Charge! We are invincible!
Fight! We are victorious!
Charge! With all our might!
We are invincible!
Fight! We shall never die!
We are victorious!
Far away from the mortal realm
Great Gods gamble and laugh
When they roll the dice of destiny
Men fight and fall on the battle field
Outnumbered they stand
A wolf and a man
Their howls rise in the night
Horses of steel shall fall
The power of the fireballs
Reset wrong to right
Charge! We are invincible!
Fight! We are victorious!
Charge! With all our might!
We are invincible!
Fight! We shall never die!
We are victorious!
Rise again! Destroy them!
Show no fear! Their end is near!
Charge! We are invincible!
Fight! We are victorious!
Charge! With all our might!
We are invincible!
Fight! We shall never die!
We are victorious!
Hear our battle cry!
We are victorious!
11. SIX RIBBONS (JON ENGLISH COVER)
If I were a minstrel I'd sing you six love songs
To tell the whole world of the love that we share
If I were a merchant I'd bring you six diamonds
With six blood red roses for my love to wear
But I am a simple man, a poor common farmer
So take my six ribbons to tie back your hair
If I were a nobleman I'd bring you six carriages
And six snow white horses to take you anywhere
If I were the emperor I'd build you six palaces
With six hundred servants for comforting fare
But I am a simple man, a poor common farmer
So take my six ribbons to tie back your hair
If I were a minstrel I'd sing you six love songs
To tell the whole world of the love that we share
So be not afraid love, you're never alone love
While you wear my ribbons to tie back your hair
Once I was a simple man, a poor common farmer
I gave you six ribbons to tie back your hair
Too-ra-lee, too-ra-lie, all I can share
Is only six ribbons to tie back your hair
12. LAMBADA (KAOMA COVER)
Chorando se foi quem um dia só me fez chorar
Chorando se foi quem um dia só me fez chorar
Chorando estará ao lembrar de um amor
Que um dia não soube cuidar
Chorando estará ao lembrar de um amor
Que um dia não soube cuidar
A recordação vai estar com ele aonde for
A recordação vai estar pra sempre aonde for
Dança, sol e mar guardarei no olhar
O amor faz perder encontrar
Lambando estarei ao lembrar que este amor
Por um dia um instante foi rei
A recordação vai estar com ele aonde for
A recordação vai estar pra sempre aonde for
Chorando estará ao lembrar de um amor
Que um dia não soube cuidar
Canção, riso e dor, melodia de amor
Um momento que fica no ar
Dançando Lambada!
