Lyrics:
Hear what's written on the wind
We come to kill and kill again
Our arrows fall like hail
Trample on the dead
Ride through the gate of clouds
Stand on the open step
Run berserk spreading fear and pain
Black shield and weapons, black our chain
None can harm us not their fire, iron or steel
For we have the will to power
With power we will kill
Kill with power
Die die
Kill with power
Die die
To the war God Odin you will pray
And the curse of weapons shall remain
On the blood of all our fathers
On their weapons we now swear
To avenge, not lament
Give the false ones death
