Edge of the World Lyrics

Sound the horns
Our king commands
We sail towards war and glory
Man the oars
Hail the winds
Skuldelevs unleashed on the world

Thor and Odin praised
Aegir was forgot
For this a storm was summoned
They have incurred his wrath

Ships were flung
Souls paid tribute
To the mighty god of the seas
Frozen waves
Steal their breath
As they cling to what remains
Surviving night
Surviving day
The king and twelve on the bow
Still armed,
Still ready
Greeted by the shadow of eagle wings

Hræsvelgr the beast at the edge of the world

Piercing eye gaze
Talons of razor
Wingspan of a hundred men
His hands steady
Soldiers at his side
The king does not cower nor fear

The beast approaches
It savors the meal to come
The beast must be filled
The king to feed him steel

Whole men
consumed
Spears and shield burst
Sternums
smashed in
By crushing forces
Heads left
bodies
Arms followed suit
Axe and
sword swung
His majesty leaves his mark

Hræsvelgr the beast at the edge of the world

Claws pierced flesh
The flesh of the king
He strikes his axe
Into his enemy

The beasts devours his leg
He screams in pain
He plants his arm
spiked and mailed into its eye

The king drifts on the bow
to our northern shores
With him proof
of the beast at the edge of the world
