lyrics

Gjennom nattenes himmel, i stjernenes skin,
Jeg vandrer alene, vet ikke hvor jeg skal inn.
Gjennom kulden jeg går, mitt hjerte er støtt,
For nordlyset, ja nordlyset, det bærer mitt skjøtt.

Have you ever seen the skies in green and violet,
Those which give us birth?
Have you ever heard the cries of grief and hunger,
Those which are harbingers of death?
Have you ever looked into the eyes of mother,
Seeking crops to feed the child,
Praying for her man to come alive
In the calling shine
of the Northern Lights.

Freezing waves show the pathway:
We set sail towards home.
Leaving dead in the pyre:
My last arrow lets them go.

Så i den kalde natten, under nordlysets bølge,
Finner jeg mitt hjem, i lysets varme ølge.

Together we fought,
And together we stand
With bodies covered in red.
May this be unsung,
And we pray the rain
To help us forget.

Covered with blood
Fight to live,
Fight to let your home survive,
Drowned in the dark
Running wheel
Of the starving winter night.
Once the time will come
For the peace
To encompass our days…
Now we must go,
Ply our swords,
Guided by the ancient ways.

In the flying sail view
Northern Lights will call you…

Have you ever seen the skies in green and violet,
Those which mean you’re home?
Have you ever heard the cries of joy and laughter,
Those which are harbingers of spring?
Have you ever looked into the eyes of mother,
Feeding your young child?
Grateful to the sea you’ve come alive.
In the welcome shine
of the Northern Lights.
