Returning home from the battlefields
Take your seat in the hall of kings
Celebrating recent victories
Look to wars the future yet may bring
The warrior is he, fighting for victory!
The warrior is he, fighting for victory!
(chorus)
Let's drink to our mighty warriors
Let's drink to the northern winds
Let's drink to our women's beauty
Let's drink before the war begins.
When you're young you chose the lifestyle of the warrior
To live and die to keep your people free
You had good times, you had bad times, never did a thing by halves
Your life is built around honour and loyalty
The warrior is he, fighting for victory!
The warrior is he, fighting for victory!
(chorus)
Let's drink to the coming battle
Let's drink to the blood-soaked fields
Let's drink to the thrill of combat
Let's drink as our foes all yield
