Shield and Sword Lyrics

Cry of a raven
Has woken us in the morning
Old men told It was a bad sign
Red sunrise says that
Blood will spill today
Fear pierces hearts with needles of ice
We're going from home
Back many to not return
Fear's storming our hearts
But nobody will stop us

Our women cry
Tears flow from their eyes
They see off the man
How many can die?

Let's fall upon
Battalions of the enemy
Strongly holding shield and sword in hands
There is no place
For fear on the battlefield
When we protect our motherland
Together as one
Let's stand as a wall
We'll take their lives
Or we shall die

Lift a look to the sky
You'll see a b***** sunrise
You'll return with a shield
Or you will die on the battlefield

You"re as a blind
Lost In the dark night
Around only darkness
And there is no light
Heads of enemies will fall
And when we shall kill them all
We will come back home
With glory on our swords

We came back home
But many have not returned
Sore widows cry
Their men in fight have died

Bards will be still long
To sing of them in the songs
Till now we sing these words
When we hold a shield and sword
