Lyrics Viking - Peter Hammill
Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song Viking , by -Peter Hammill Select which language to translate into:
|
| Looking out forward over the prow of our long ship
|
| Pulling our oars and listening to the foam;
|
| Helmets and sheepskins salt-damp in the sea-mist:
|
| We’re going home
|
| Aslak of Langadale, Einar Thorgeirsson
|
| Olaf the White and Sigurd the Powerful…
|
| Looking for constellations above the horizon
|
| West wind cutting sharper than our blades;
|
| Smiling forever into an endless sunrise
|
| We’re flying on the waves
|
| Thorfin Karlsefny, Aud the Deep-Minded
|
| Snorri Thorbrandsson, Thorstein the Black…
|
| Out of dark Vinland, with grey waves racing before us —
|
| We want no rest
|
| Back to the homeland, Iceland, sleeping in winter —
|
| Back from the West
|
| Five years we roam;
|
| Now we’re going home |
