Sabaton The Lion from the North [Lejonet från Norden]

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,

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 no-o-o-o-orth

 

Gustavus! Adolphus!

Libera et impera!

Acerbus et ingens!

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!

Libera et impera!

Acerbus et ingens!

Augusta per angusta

 

Gustavus! Adolphus!

(Gustavus Adolphus go forth, libera, impera)

Libera et impera!

Acerbus et ingens!

(Acerbus et ingens go forth, libera, impera)

Augusta per angusta

 

Mighty eagle rule alone

Liberator claim the throne

Lion from the northern land

Take the scepter, from its hand (x3)

Oh, oh, oh you lion from the north,

Ooooooooh you lion from the north

 

Mighty eagle rule alone

Liberator claim the throne

Lion from the northern land

Take the scepter, from its hand

 

Legends have taught, battles fought,

This lion has no fear at heart

Lion come forth, come from the north,

Come from the no-o-o-o-orth

 

Gustavus! Adolphus!

Libera et impera!

Acerbus et ingens!

Augusta per angusta

 

Gustavus! Adolphus!

(Gustavus Adolphus go forth, libera, impera)

Libera et impera!

Acerbus et ingens!

(Acerbus et ingens go forth, libera, impera)

Augusta per angusta
