The ocean waves are held in a firm, freezing grip And the summer winds seem but a dream Glistening veils of silver snow on our sleeping ships Dark skies fill our souls with silent screams But soon our longing hearts will soar once again On winds across the open waves Oh, how we're yearning for those warm summer days When once again we can set our sails ♪ A Viking's home is on the restless waves Where salty winds carry far and wide To foreign shores and glory wars we will set sail With axe and sword by our side ♪ But here we sit by glowing hearth With warm ale in our hands We reminisce of glory past And make our future plans ♪ Soon our longing hearts will soar once again On winds across the open waves
Oh, how we're yearning for those warm summer days When once again we can set our sails Yes, soon our longing hearts will spread their wings once again On salty winds across the open waves Oh, how we're yearning for that summer day, my friend When once again we will set our longship sails
