Verse 1 (low drone, distant horns) Black snow falls on the northern sea, Ash drifts through the dead pine trees. Longships rot beneath the tide, Yet the old gods never died. Mountains crack with ancient flame, The earth still whispers Odin’s name. Through the frost and poisoned skies We endure, we never hide. Pre-Chorus (drums slowly rise) From the ruins of the old world’s pyre, From frozen blood and sacred fire— The ravens call, the storm awakes, And every chain begins to break. Chorus (massive cinematic explosion) We were born of fire and ice! Forged beneath the dying light! Children of the wolf and thunder, Marching through the endless night! Born of fire and ice! Hear the northern heavens cry! If the world must fall to darkness— We will face it side by side! Verse 2 (heavier guitars enter) Cities drowned in smoke and rust, Kings reduced to ash and dust. Still the war drums shake the ground, Still the old blood answers sound. Fenrir stirs beneath the stone, The last age chills us to the bone. But where the weak collapse in fear— We raise our banners higher here. Pre-Chorus (choirs layered underneath) Raise the torches to the storm! Let the broken world transform! Though Ragnarök consumes the sky— The spirit of the north won’t die! Chorus (bigger, choir harmonies) We were born of fire and ice! Baptized in the blackened rain! Sons and daughters of the wasteland, Carrying the ancient flame! Born of fire and ice! Hear the mountains roar tonight! From the ashes of the fallen— We return to claim the light! Bridge (ritualistic breakdown → cinematic climax) (Deep chant over tribal drums) Fire in the marrow… Ice within the soul… The old world shattered— But the north remains whole… (orchestral swell rises) Ravens over burning kingdoms! Storms devour the poisoned sun! When the final horn is sounded— The age of iron has begun! Final Chorus (full power, double choir) We were born of fire and ice! Raised beneath apocalypse skies! Guardians of forgotten legends, The last flame that never dies! Born of fire and ice! Let the warhorns shake the earth! From the frost beyond destruction— A new world will be reborn! Outro (wind ambience, low male choir) Fire and ice… Ash and snow… The north remembers…
