To Holmgard And Beyond Lyrics

Far beyond the sea and distant lands

Came men with thirty ships

Had wanted to reach the Neva by night

But the weather was not on their side

And as the wind grew stronger and stronger

The rain ran down our cheeks

The bow was turned towards Gardar

The sail flew up again

Holmgard and beyond

That's where the winds will us guide

For fame and for gold

Set sail for those lands unknown

Osmo and Dalk, Kyy, Kokko and Ulf

Were glad to be off the oars

Turo had eaten too much again

Now hanging himself overboard

The Tostensson twins were excited as always

Adventure was their game

Myself, Hakon the Bastard

Was out to find my name

Holmgard and beyond

That's where the winds will us guide

For fame and for gold

Set sail for those lands unknown

Who is "I" without a past?Turisas - To Holmgard And Beyond - http://motolyrics.com/turisas/to-holmgard-and-beyond-lyrics.html

A river without a source?

An event without a cause?

Threads of different lengths

Some longer, some shorter

So many of them spun together

The crones keep on weaving

The algorithm of our lives

Cause and effect, the fates of men

We know the way to Aldeigju

Upstream the river Alode

You take us to the portage

And further [South]

Long is the way to the unknown

Long are the rivers in the East

Far lies the land that Ingvar

And his men desire to reach

Many dangers lie ahead

Some of us may never return

Rather sold as a slave to the Saracens

Than chained to your bed, chained by your life!

Holmgard and beyond

That's where the winds will us guide

For fame and for gold

Set sail for those lands unknown
