Текст песни
Hear the wind, a bitter song
Frost has gripped where streams ran long
Snow drifts high on hill and shore
Northman, stand — endure once more!
«Northman, brace, guard the flame
Winter’s harsh, but we’re the same
Through the dark, through the cold
Clan stands firm, brave and bold!»
Ice now binds the fjord so deep
Silent woods where wild wolves creep
Stars burn cold, the moon is pale
Long the nights — we will not fail
«Hei, hei, ho
Shield our kin, guard us so
Hei, hei, ho
Fire bright, let winds blow slow.»
In the longhouse, fire burns true
Mead is shared, tales see us through
Elders speak of winter’s test
How their fathers stood, did their best
Children huddle, listen close
To the sagas of northern snow
Of Odin’s eye, Thor’s great might
Stories kindle inner light
«Northman, brace, guard the flame
Winter’s harsh, but we’re the same
Through the dark, through the cold
Clan stands firm, brave and bold!»
Northern lights dance in the sky
Ghostly banners, spirits nigh
They remind us who we are —
Sons of frost, from distant star
Day by day, we hold the line
Feed the fire, share the wine
One by one, we count the days
Waiting for the sun’s warm gaze
Fire dims, but embers glow
Spring will come, we’ve faced the snow
Winter’s grip will break at last
Northmen stand — the die is cast
Whispered: «So mote it be»
