Put Your Back Into The Oar |
The ships await us by the Birka quay |
All prepared with sixty oars |
They will carry us on the open sea |
Heading out to glory wars |
We have blothed to Aegir |
To the daughters of Ran |
We are willing and eager |
We are leaving at dawn |
Four days of good wind |
Then we awoke to an ocean mirror calm |
Slacking sails, we are drifting |
No direction, we are drifting |
Glory calls from beyond the waves |
A chance for fame and rich reward |
Honour waits beyond the grave |
So put your back into the oar |
The sun is burning, now we’re lost at sea |
Our rations are running low |
Thirsty throats and hungry fleas |
But we still got many days to go |
We are crossing the ocean |
Left our home in the north |
The oars have set us in motion |
They will carry us forth |
Each man builds his own fame |
Now everyone, show me what you’re worth |
Who recalls a coward’s name? |
No one remembers, who remembers |
Glory calls from beyond the waves |
Beckons those with a heart for war |
Honour waits beyond the grave |
So put your back into the oar |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
(The oar is your best friend) |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
(For a triumphant end) |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
(Row for victory) |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
Row! |
(Into history) |
Grab your oars |
Row to glory wars |
And for victory |
Into history |
Each man builds his own fame |
Now everyone, show me what you’re worth |
Who recalls a coward’s name? |
No one remembers, who remembers |
Glory calls from beyond the waves |
Beckons those with a heart for war |
Honour waits beyond the grave |
Fear not a bloody fate |
Glory calls from beyond the waves |
A chance for fame and rich reward |
Honour waits beyond the grave |
So put your back into the oar |
