"The Alliance" songtekst

"The Alliance"

Over de Noorderzee, doelgericht, met vaste hand
Snijden onze schepen door de golven naar het Brittenland
Ver van huis en haard waar Urth onze daden spon
De toekomst verweven met het land daar aan de horizon

Strijdend voor een vreemde heer, in een oorlog ver van hier
Betaald met nieuwe grond onze toekomst in 't vizier
Angel, Jut, Fries en Saks strijden zij aan zij
Samen in ons streven, het nieuwe heim nabij

See their ships cutting through the mists
As whispers in the wind herald our bliss
Forces from abroad have heeded our call
An alliance is forged to aid us all

Their ships have crossed the cold waves
Our allies, crawling every river, every stream

Saxons on our shores bleeding for our 'cause
Deeds to our lands, rewards their stand
The wind now whispers of a threat in the east
Friends will be foes as the alliance is breached

See the fires burning in the heartlands
Our enemies, crawling every river, every stream

We thought our salvation emerged from the channel's violent waves
Yet we invited our doom, for you intended to stay
You betrayed us and degraded, you took our hearths away
You dubbed us "stranger" and called our lands your own
