Windrider - Let Death Be Our Pride lyrics
Your rating:
A rain of arrows, falls from the sky Like lightning, strikes the armour The thunder of the clashing shields And the deafening roars of the brave The shieldwall meets like wave on cliff And the chosen fall like rocks to the sea The spears clash and shortswords ring On shields held firm for our brothers-in-arms A terrible battle, with death on our side A terrible battle, let death be our pride Wound-giving Valkyries down from the sky Surrounded by ravens, great horses they ride As arrows fly by over helmets and swords The maidens of Valhall, their fate to decide That those who died bravely, with honour and pride Be given their death, cast their shield aside And join the Einherjer in their joyful tide Though warriors have fallen, their death is their pride The men who lie in blood and dirt Now lie beside their brothers For when the sun sets they'll return to the halls And drink to battle and the day that they died The men who lie with spears in their hearts Now ride again with the men they have slain As they fade away, with swords in their hands They will open their eyes to the gods of old A beautiful battle, with death on our side A beautiful battle, let death be our pride Wound-giving Valkyries down from the sky Surrounded by ravens, great horses they ride As arrows fly by over helmets and swords The maidens of Valhall, their fate to decide That those who died bravely, with honour and pride Be given their death, cast their shield aside And join the Einherjer in their joyful tide Though warriors have fallen, their death is their pride
