The Viking War

[Intro A sad melody is playing on the violin and cello] [Verse] On fields where ravens dare to tread, Through mist and blood, the sky turned red. Where shield met axe, and sword met bone, The Viking warriors' might was shown. [Pre-Chorus A cappella of female voices] They charged with cries that split the air, Their battle-frenzy beyond compare. For honor, kin, and homestead's peace, They'd fight till breath and heartbeat cease. [Chorus A cappella of male voices] With shields as towers, firm they stood, The ground beneath soaked with their blood. In Odin's name their blades did dance, In fate's cruel game, they seized their chance. [Verse 2] Each warrior’s heart was a fierce flame, Upon this field, they'd etch their name. A saga sung, a tale so bold, In whispers of the ancients told. [Intsrumental Bridge] [Verse 3] Though fallen kin shall rise no more, Their valor lives in mythic lore. The clash of steel, their last hurrah, In Valhalla’s halls, their spirits soar. [Pre-Chorus] As twilight shadows crossed the land, The Viking horde made their last stand. The clash of destiny was near, In hearts, no flicker of a fear. [Chorus] Against a sea of foes they roared, In every thrust their spirits soared. With every foe that hit the ground, Their saga deepened, legend bound. [Instrumental Bridge Piano, cello, violin, playing slowly and sadly] [Verse 4] The sky lit up with fiery streaks, As gods above watched brave techniques. The warriors' echo through the night, Epitomized the ancient fight. [Verse 5] In memory of the brave who fell, Their stories we are bound to tell. Through time and space their honor rings, In the immortal song of kings. [Instrumental Bridge] [Verse 4] The sky lit up with fiery streaks, As gods above watched brave techniques. The warriors' echo through the night, Epitomized the ancient fight. [Verse 5] In memory of the brave who fell, Their stories we are bound to tell. Through time and space their honor rings, In the immortal song of kings. [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] Upon the raging sea, the longships sail, Vikings with hearts of iron, fierce and hale. Under the stormy skies, their saga unfolds, In the clash of swords, their destiny holds. [Outro Piano, cello, violin, playing slowly and sadly]
