By the fire's gleam
The skald lies asleep
But still his tales dance within the flames

He told me of time long gone
Of warriors proud in legendary shroud
By the fire's gleam

The skald lies asleep
But still his tales dance within the flames
Tales Of Gods and fairy folk

Forgotten now from all

Tell me skald

Praise with thy fiddle
All the things you saw
When in Viking times

Dragons ruled 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
Forgotten now from all
