By the fire's gleam
The skald lies asleep
But still his tales
Dance within the flames
He told me all of time long gone
of four warriors proud in legendary shroud
By the fire's gleam
The skald lies asleep
But still his tales
Dance within the flames
Tales of the gods and fairy folk
Long forgotten now from all
Tell me skald
Praise with thy fiddle
All the things you saw
When in viking times
Dragons rules the north
In the viking times
Thor's silver chariot
Rode on clouds sky-borne
By the fire's gleam
The skald lies asleep
But still his tales
Dance within the flames
In the viking times
A tale now unfolds
So keep it in your heart
Least it may go
In the viking times
Upon the rainbow's end
Heimdall I met
The guardian of Bifrost
In the viking times
A tale now unfolds
So keep it in your heart
Least it may go
In the viking times
And far, far away
In the north of yesterday
Singing with the boreal gale
Tales of gods and fairy folk
Long forgotten now from all
Tell me skald
Praise with thy fiddle
All the things you saw
When in viking times
Dragons rules the north
In the viking times
Thor's silver chariot
Rode on clouds sky-borne
By the fire's gleam
The skald lies asleep
But still his tales
Dance within the flames
In the viking times
A tale now unfolds
So keep it in your heart
Least it may go
In the viking times
Upon the rainbow's end
Heimdall I met
The guardian of Bifrost
In the viking times
A tale now unfolds
So keep it in your heart
Least it may go
In the viking times
And far, far away
In the north of yesterday
Singing with the boreal gale
In the viking times
A tale now unfolds
So keep it in your heart
Least it may go
In the viking times
And far, far away
In the north of yesterday
