Northern men can you hear the sound?
Of battles fought centuries ago
Northern men can you smell the fear?
Of enemies driven from our land

Northern men can you see the signs?
Of mystic runes carved in ancient stones
Northern men can you taste the blood?
Of Christian

And in the great battle
The heroic warrior of the north
Took up his scramasax and spear
And did slay his foes heroically
But many was their number
And he did fall with honour
And pride in his heart
To the speartips of the enemy

And as he lay in the field of batt
