of the great sea king

and the fame

that now hangs overhead

who once did sweep for the vanquish deep 

and drove the world before him



(Chorus)

Where the sea king king rides

where the sea king dies

where the sea king rides

where the sea king dies



His deck was a throne

for the ocean lone

and the sea

was his park of pleasure

when he scattered in fear

the human deer

and rested when he had leisure



(Chorus)



His whole earth life

was a conquering strife

and he lived 'til his beard grew hoary

when he died at last

by his blood red mast and now he's lost in glory



Come shout, come sing

of the great sea king

and ride the track the he rode in

he sits at the head

of the mighty dead

at the red right hand of Odin



(Chorus) x2
