The icy wind is our vanguard
The winter moon [is] our guide
In our vessel true
Our pugnacious crew
Across the sea does ride

Swords and shields at the ready
Torches all alight
We'll merrily dine
And soak up the wine
In (old) Valhalla tonight

Fire shall rain down from the heavens
Man and beast shall resist no more
When our foes throw down their weapons
At long last
We will reign
Kings of the North

No mortal soul shall restrain us
In this, our noble quest
Oh, pray not for peace
For we shall not cease
'Til all have acquiesced

Our vict'ry won't be forgotten
Our story forever told
We'll take what we take
For the land of the lakes
With banners purple and gold

Fire shall rain down from the heavens
Man and beast shall resist no more
When our foes throw down their weapons
At long last
We will reign
Kings of the North

We shall not speak of past hardships
Of injustice we've endured
Though some had to cheat
To bring us defeat
We'll have the final word

Prepare the ship for the voyage
And strike the battle drum
We'll sing our fight songs
As we sail along
No rest 'til we have won

Fire shall rain down from the heavens
Man and beast shall resist no more
When our foes throw down their weapons
At long last
We will reign
Kings of the North
