We were the kings here once, boy We were kings of all these lands And we'll be kings again Our forefathers took this land once And it's strengthened by their blood Their blood and bone No, I will not beg I will fall, oh, to my knees For no man, no king, no Christian priest Freeborn we are We're the swords of northern lands Freeborn we are Our birthright to defend Freeborn we are In the shield wall may I die Freeborn we are But they'll never take my pride Freeborn we are Today, a day for warriors A day to kill our enemies Fight to death! They do not know our swords yet And they do not know our pride They will pay in blood Oh, the swords are drawn I will fall, oh, to my knees For no man, no Christian god or priest Freeborn we are The true heirs of these lands Freeborn we are Our birthright to defend Freeborn we are In the shield wall may I die Freeborn we are But they'll never take my pride Freeborn we are Oh, the swords are drawn I will fall, oh, to my knees For no man, no Christian god or priest Freeborn we are We're the swords of northern lands Freeborn we are Our birthright to defend Freeborn we are In the shield wall may I die Freeborn we are But they'll never take my pride Freeborn we are Freeborn (freeborn)
