Three brothers skilled in combat
A shifting enemy
With spears and stones they kill him
The earth accepts his body
His son, a king seeks vengeance
For these three warrior sins
So far they must travel to face their justice
Spears in blood
Fruit of gold
They must retrieve
Death is waiting
Sail the seas to clear your name
Return to us or live in shame
Steal from kings and spill their blood
Only then can you see the ones you love
With ease they make their way
And demonstrate their strength
A terrifying journey
But they return too early
Again they must depart
Without what they have won
Far in the land of Fjords
A final judgement calls
Spears in blood
Fruit of gold
They must retrieve
Death is waiting
Sail the seas to clear your name
Return to us or live in shame
Steal from kings and spill their blood
Only then can you see the ones you love
On the hill they meet their match
A battle heard from far and wide
Stabbbed and wounded they prevail
Together they give one last shout
Spears in blood
Fruit of gold
They must retrieve
Death is waiting
Sail the seas to clear your name
Return to us or live in shame
Steal from kings and spill their blood
Only then can you see the ones you love
