snow is falling down on this glorious land
colors fading turning into white again
to fallen heroes angels sing they cry their winter tears
endless mourning days will turn to years
so this is goodbye i take leave of you and
spread your wings and you will fly away now, fly away now
nothing on earth stays forever but none of your deeds were in vain
deep in our hearts you will live again you're gone to the home of the brave
every solemn moment i will treasure inside
eventhough it's hard to understand
that a silent wind can blow the candle out
taking everything leaving the pain far behind.
you call out my name but your voice is fading
into the wind embraced you'll fly away now, fly away now
nothing on earth stays forever but none of your deeds were in vain
deep in our hearts you will live again you're gone to the home of the brave
my eyes are closed i feel you're far away
far beyond that shining star
i know you'll find what you've been fighting for
far beyond that shining star
down on bended knee i cry bring courage to these souls
make 'em live forever in the heart of the bold
so i say farewell my friends i hope we'll meet again
when my time has come to fall from grace
so this is goodbye...
the 13th warrior filmindeki cenaze töreni ve filmin sonundaki savaştan önce duyduğumuz viking duası. ingilizce sözleri şöyledir:
"Lo, there do I see my Father..
Lo, there do I see my Mother
And my Sisters and my Brothers..
Lo, there do I see the line
Of my people back to the beginning..
Thay do bid me to take my place among them..
In the Halls of Valhalla,
Where the Brave may live forever."
