[Verse 1] The night came down on a frozen shore, Blackened the sky with the smoke of war. The ravens cried where our brothers lay, But the blood of the North will not fade away. We carried our grief through the wind and snow, With iron in hand and a fire below. Let the thunder speak, let the storm winds blow— There is strength in the scars that the brave ones show. [Pre-Chorus] Raise up your shield, let the whole world know, We were born from the flame where the cold winds blow. [Chorus] Rise beyond the shadow, Rise above the fear. Hear the call of Odin— The hour of fate is here. Stand beside your brothers, Let every war horn sound. We will rise beyond the shadow— No darkness holds us down! [Verse 2] Our longships cut through the raging foam, The stars are our compass, the sea is our home. With the wolves at our backs and the gods overhead, We carry the names of the honoured dead. No king can break us, no blade can command, For freedom was forged in this northern land. If we fall tonight, let the sagas proclaim: We stood like mountains and died without shame. [Pre-Chorus] Raise up your axe, let the enemy know, We are sons of the storm where the cold winds blow. [Chorus] Rise beyond the shadow, Rise above the fear. Hear the call of Odin— The hour of fate is here. Stand beside your brothers, Let every war horn sound. We will rise beyond the shadow— No darkness holds us down! [Bridge] Valhalla waits beyond the burning sky, But this is not the night we die. One heart, one oath, one final stand— We carve our fate with bloodied hands! [Battle Chant] Rise! Rise! From the flame! Rise! Rise! Speak our name! Rise! Rise! Shield and sword! Rise beyond the shadow— For glory and the North! [Final Chorus] Rise beyond the shadow, Rise into the light. With the fury of the thunder, We conquer through the night. Stand beside your brothers, Let every war horn sound. We have risen from the shadow— And we will not bow down! [Outro] When the final fires glow, And the northern rivers flow, Our names will live forever— Rise beyond the shadow.
