[Verse 1] From the ancient halls of time, I rise, The firstborn dragon beneath the skies. A name of fear, my shadow looms, The harbinger of Tamriel’s doom. Scales of night, my wings obscure, No blade or spell can find a cure. The World-Eater comes, the end is near, The skies will burn, the earth will sear. [Chorus] Bow to the fire, to the ancient flame, Alduin reigns, the world I claim. Time is broken, the end is nigh, The World-Eater’s roar shakes the sky. Despair and darkness, your fate is sealed, For none can stand, and none can wield. [Verse 2] The scrolls foretold, but none believed, The prophecy speaks of what I’ll achieve. Devourer of souls, I’ll leave no trace, A world undone by my embrace. Dovahkiin may rise, a mortal’s fight, But even they will face the night. No Thu’um can bind what’s set in stone, The world is mine, the throne I own. [Chorus] Bow to the fire, to the ancient flame, Alduin reigns, the world I claim. Time is broken, the end is nigh, The World-Eater’s roar shakes the sky. Despair and darkness, your fate is sealed, For none can stand, and none can wield. [Bridge] (Whispered in Draconic) Zu’u Alduin, the void’s design, My power endless, my will divine. Fus ro dii nahgah, the skies will bleed, The age of mortals, undone by greed. (Sung) Mountains crumble, rivers dry, The world succumbs to my ancient cry. No hope remains, no hero’s song, The age of dragons will last long. [Chorus - Final] Bow to the fire, to the ancient flame, Alduin reigns, the world I claim. Time is broken, the end is nigh, The World-Eater’s roar shakes the sky. Despair and darkness, your fate is sealed, For none can stand, and none can wield. [Outro] From Sovngarde’s halls to Nirn’s vast plain, The World-Eater’s shadow shall remain. Through fire and ash, my reign is clear, For Alduin lives, and all shall fear.
