Lyrics
Born under fickle northlight, under the heartless stars Where icy ocean foam is cutting into skin and leaving scars No legacy awaited, not for the restless kind I stepped aboard a longship and left it all behind Eastwards I was looking for choices, on the silk road I did travel Over many strange land I often heard the gods singing voices That steered me towards living life with weapons in my hand The sword is my command I hold it in my hand Til I take my final stand Dying like a man Like a true Varangian I have seen battle raging, I have seen brothers die I have seen blood red snow and I have heard the doomed ones weep and cry For silvershine and glory, and for my longing heart Wielding my shield before me, I came to play my part I stood my ground in fire and fury as a mercenary within the Varangian guard I carved a rune to vouch for our glory, with my dagger in a Church bench in Miklagaard The sword is my command I hold it in my hand Til I take my final stand Dying like a man Like a true Varangian There is a house, of timber, in Holmgaard by a lake I grieve and I remember, leaving my loved ones with heartbreak I gazed in light of morning, towards the rising sun Yet I was caught in mourning, for in regret I came undone Once again I boarded the Longship And sailed into the east whilst contemplating what it gave For I surely have been given good fortune And now on eastern shores I shall be given my demise and my grave The sword is my command I hold it in my hand Til I take my final stand Dying like a man Like a true Varangian
