Lyrics

You who have become the legend! I summon you mighty warriors! your power
Honour and pride shall encourage all of us
The same blood runs in our veins
But our brothers' minds are poisoned
Their spirit should be purified
Enemies' temples burnt to the ground..
We raise the swords and start new war against the plague of foreign gods
Fidelity and pagan pride will lead us to the final glory!
Nothing can deafen voice of blood
Instinct decodes every lie
Strong arms will soon throw down the chains
And bring the lost dignity back..
Let's raise the swords forged in blood together with forefathers' ghosts
Invisible astral power shall turn us into cruel beasts
Immortal are the ideals for which we fight and proudly die. there is a flame
Of heritage, that every man has to protect
We are the last bastion of truth
Those who have never betrayed their roots
The heathen fire of our hearts
Can only raise but never go out!
We take an oath on our swords
To raise them when it's time to fight
When alien offend our faith
And spit on forefathers' grave..
