Through whirlwinds and lightning The raven banners proudly fly Our ships carve through the waves As the hammer cracks the sky Our foes have seen the omens They tremble and fear our wrath Never shall they know peace As the ravens guide our path Above our swords The raven banners fly Our foes do tremble They know their end is nigh ♪ We have reached the enemy shore And embark with sword and shield Stride through cold morning mist Our foes fate is already sealed We storm towards the monastery The bells ring in fear and dismay The monks soon to meet their doom While the ravens guide our way Above our swords The raven banners fly Our gods we honour Let all hear our battle cry ♪ Summa pia gratia nostra conservando corpora et cutodita, de gente fera Normannica nos libera, quae nostra vastat, Deus, regna Their book shall not save them They pray to their god in vain No mercy for those of the lie Their puny lives now end in pain Our foes all enslaved or slain For the glory of our gods so great Forever We stand in defiance proud While the ravens guide our fate Above our swords The raven banners fly This victory we give To He who sits in hall up high He who sits in hall up high He who sits in hall up high
