Tears Of Magdalena - The Eastway lyrics

rate me

They came from the west

Through the storm across the sea

One thousand men armed

With their swords and shields

Somewere there was a strange land their never thought,

It would be so far from home

They sailed with their ships

Across the rivers and lakes

With courage and pride

Like proud sons of god Odin

The were varangians from the west - they were vikings,

The warriors of town holmgard

Then two tribes rebelled

Against their conquerors

Driving 'em overseas

Back into their land

After conflicts the tries invited 'em back,

To rule 'em, to bring order and peace

They roamed the rivers

Engaging in trade

Merchants who raided

And colonized new lands

They served as the bodyguards of the emperor,

The warriors of town miklagard

Hej skål hej

Hej skål hej

Nu skålar vi för dig, hej hej

They sailed with their ships

Across the rivers and lakes

With courage and pride

Like proud sons of god Odin

The were varangians from the west - they were vikings,

The warriors of town holmgard

They served as the bodyguards of the emperor,

The warriors of town miklagard

Hej skål hej

Hej skål hej

Nu sk&aring;lar vi f&ouml;r dig, hej hej<br />
