Les paroles de la chanson
« The land »
Bathory

This land is mine to the end of time
none it shall claim or conquer
the mountains high
the endless sky
the forests and the sea

Oh land rejoice
your son has sailed
beyond the seas
adventurous trail
now heading north to Asa bay
my place of birth
home of the brave

A man he may wither away
or die in battle with swords in hand
but the river will flow and the wind will blow
forever across my northern land

This land is mine to the end of time
none it shall claim or conquer
the mountains high
the endless sky
the forests and the sea

Oh fatherland
oh Northstar high
two hundred days and night have I
been away from you my hearths most dear
returning home
great wealth to share

Worth those oars
the wind is still
no southern breeze our sail to fill
the dusk is here and our bay is far
the Dragon soon to sweep the night
so worth those oars as Norsemen brother’s row

The land where deep in heavy turf the bones and crushed skulls testify
the violent times and troubled days when the land was claimed
and paid for in blood and human lives

The land where gold of star still glare in silvery water
and on black wings high the ravens soar above
the glade where as a child I was baptized in fire and ice
