Hürlement - Brothers of the Watch lyrics

A chill is in my bones, and no prospect of home But I will not stray from the Wall I will remain through the night Like my brothers, on with the watch For the Maiden and for the Crone For the Mother and the Stranger alone We watch! The swords of braver men will win the coming fight The words of wiser men will keep the kingdoms' light The toil of tougher men will feed the mother's child But we watch on through the night I am the fire for the sleeper I am the bringer of the dawn I am the warden and the waker I am the watcher on the wall No land or family, no name or glory My life is nothing to history Life is a fire and a sword Life is here, life is the watch For the Maiden and for the Crone For the Mother and the Stranger alone We watch! The swords of braver men will win the coming fight The words of wiser men will keep the kingdoms' light The toil of tougher men will feed the mother's child But we watch on... For the night is dark and full of terrors For the night is dark and full of terrors For the Maiden and for the Crone For the Mother and the Stranger alone We watch! The swords of braver men will win the coming fight The words of wiser men will keep the kingdoms' light The toil of tougher men will feed the mother's child But we watch on through the night The swords of braver men will win the coming fight The words of wiser men will keep the kingdoms' light The prayers of holier men will thwart the devil's guile But we watch on through the night The swords of braver men will win the coming fight The deeds of nobler men will spur the singer's harp The eyes of fairer men will haunt the maiden's sighs But we watch on through the night But we watch on through the night!
