Swords in the Wind Songtext
von Manowar

I surrender my soul
Odin hear my call
One day I′ll sit beside your throne
In Valhalla's great hall.
Like so many before me
I′ll die with honour and pride.
The right of a warrior
Forever to fight by your side.

Send a sign, raise the sail
Wave a last goodbye.
Destiny is calling
Immortality be mine.

Call the witch to cast the runes
Weave a magic spell.
We who die in battle are borne
Not for Heaven, not for Hell.


We are sons of Odin
The fire we burn inside
Is the legacy of warrior kings
Who reign above in the sky.

I will lead the charge
My sword into the wind.
Sons of Odin fight
To die and live again.
Viking ships cross the sea
In cold wind and rain.
Sail into the black of night
Magic stars our guiding light.

Today the blood of battle
Upon my weapons will never dry.
Many I'll send into the ground
Laughing as they die.

We are sons of Odin
The fire we burn inside
Is the legacy of warrior kings
Who reign above in the sky.


I will lead the charge
My sword into the wind.
Sons of Odin fight
To die and live again.
Viking ships cross the sea
In cold wind and rain.
Sail into the black of night
Magic stars our guiding light.

Place my body on a ship
And burn it in the sea.
Let my spirit rise
Valkyries, carry me.
Take me to Valhalla
Where my brothers wait for me.
Fire burning to the sky
My spirit will never die.
I will lead the charge
My sword into the wind.
Sons of Odin fight
To die and live again.
Viking ships cross the sea
In cold wind and rain.
Sail into the black of night
Magic stars our guiding light.
