Emerge from the evening mist
Congregation with torches lit
A solemn path to stone filled shores
A ship awaits for the voyage home
Corpse in ceremonial form
With sword and shield adorned
Kinsmen silent in mourning
The ravens call resounding
From midst the tinder
Spark births rising flame
The horn sounds
In the distance
Its resonance
Beckons the fire
Orange glow reflecting endlessly
Upon the tides of an abysmal sea
Shimmering light
The end of an era
Drifting from this realm
In all its splendor
A beacon in black horizon
Return to the halls of your fathers
Drink to your glorious deeds
Sing songs of battle and honor
Reunite with the olden kings
The now distant fire has ceased
What remains is claimed by the sea
They lift their heads to the rising sun
The last shadow of night has gone
From the forest echoes the distant cries
Lo! Lament for out chieftain died
A stone ship for our once great king
May it guide his way to the halls on high
Though his body will wither away
His legend and glory will never fade
