Genus Ordinis Dei - Morten Lyrics

The last leaf has fallen
And the faithful ice
Is taking leave from these lands
The benison of the Gods
has run its course
As the time of swords
is yet to come, Morten

Wise Sannr
These baleful words
You grant me
Are like a black cold rain
Will the clear sky
show me stars
Soiled with blood and pain?

I made the hammer
to brave fear
The shield to bear the grief
The night to stand the toil
And death to find the peace

Gunnarr, guide me
Brothers, wait for me

This life is just a mild memory
I'll ride towards death she's calling me
Proffer Valkyries a rightful meed, brothers
Give the land back
what land gave to you
The mountain claims its snow
The sky claims its prayer
The mother claims her child
And the land claims its blood

Hlìn of mercy
Hear this hopeless call
Let my shield be strong
Show my dears ones the way
To meet me there one day

Odin!

My sorrow resounds
My fury is now
My pain is my might
My vengeance is forever

Valkyries,
Take me!

The forest confines my last march
Sunbeams mark my final path
The blood on my sword foretells my fate
The fire in me is stoked by hate

The crow said its say
The vale has reaped its harvest
And your brothers sit in front of me
Awaiting

Tyr the brave
Walk with me in the end
Make my home their grave
Give glory to this day
Let me pray and slay

Thor the mighty
Rive the traitor's house
As the lightning breaks the clouds
Give me strength to find the way
To reach your hall today
