The Crown and the Ring (Lament of the Kings) Lyrics
From a battle I've come
To a battle I ride
Blazing up to the sky
Chains of fate
Hold a fiery stride
I'll see you again when I die
High and mighty alone, we are kings
Whirlwinds of fire, we ride
Providence brought us
The crown and the ring
Covered with blood and our pride
Heroes, await me
My enemies ride fast
Knowing not this ride's their last
Saddle my horse as I drink my last ale
Bow string and steel will prevail
High and mighty alone, we are kings
Whirlwinds of fire, we ride
Providence brought us
The crown and the ring
Covered with blood and our pride
Odin, I await thee
Your true son am I
I hail you, now as I die
I pledge you my sword
And to no man I kneel
Ours is the kingdom of steel
High and mighty alone, we are kings
Whirlwinds of fire, we ride
Providence brought us
The crown and the ring
Covered with blood and our pride
High and mighty alone, we are kings
Whirlwinds of fire, we ride
Providence brought us
The crown and the ring
Covered with blood and our pride
