Home Of Once Brave

[Verse 1]
Out of the water
The cold black Nordic sea
Risen towards the eternal sky
The land lays open and free

[Verse 2]
Up high the mountains
Where the wind catch its speed and chill
Snowstorms are born
And rage loud through the valleys and the hills

[Chorus 1]
Above, two ravens, messengers of the wise one-eyed God
Who rules this land of the strong and the great
And tall, beautiful, behold this thy land
Open and free, this thy home of the brave

[Verse 3]
Dark endless forests
Where at the day hides the shadows of the night
Snow covered wastelands
As great as the eternal sky

[Verse 4]
Now in the midst
Of this wild and this open and free
He placed my kind
To possess this their land to be

[Chorus 2]
Above, two ravens, messengers of the wise one-eyed God
Who ruled this land of once strong and great
But now forgetting to behold this their land
Once ours once free, this my home of once brave
