Текст песни «The Lion from the North (English Version)»

A time of religion and war, Legends tell the tale of a lion This beast in the shape of a man, With a dream to rule sea and land And all those who stand in his way, Will die, by God and victorious arms With the righteous that follows him south, Once more, set ashore, to war Legends have taught, battles fought, This lion has no fear at heart Lion come forth, come from the north, Come from the north Gustavus! Adolphus! (Gustavus Adolphus go forth, libera, impera) Libera et impera! Acerbus et ingens! (Acerbus et ingens leo, libera, impera) Augusta per angusta A storm over Europe unleashed, Dawn of war, a trail of destruction The power of Rome won't prevail, See the catholics shiver and shake The future of warfare unveiled, Showed the way, that we still walk today Der Löwe aus Mitternacht comes, Once more, he is here, for war Stories of old, truth unfold, Control over Europe he holds Freedom he'll bring, Lion and king, lion and king Gustavus! Adolphus! (Gustavus Adolphus go forth, libera, impera) Libera et impera! Acerbus et ingens! (Acerbus et ingens leo, libera, impera) Augusta per angusta Mighty eagle rule alone Liberator claim the throne Lion from the northern land Take the scepter, from its hand Oh, you lion from the north, Oh you lion from the north
