Bathory Father To Son
Dedicated to the Children of the North Star Father to Son From Father to Son Now born my son I name thee After the sound of my Hammer's Beat upon the anvil On this chilly springtime day The Hammerchild of my flesh Of my blood to carry on When I have reached Oden's end Of my glorious warrior's trail Call upon the spirits of our fathers Long time gone with thunder Ask them for truth and courage When trouble is in your way Learn to read and understand The signs to few can clearly vision Listen carefully to what The Ravens has to say Oh, hear the Thunder's roar Greetings from our fathers long time gone Tell so that no one ever will forget What is in heart goes from Father to Son Oh, watch the lightning strike Feel the powers of the Hammer's pounding on Take it to your heart and understand What must live on from Father to Son Promise me my son to always Cherish what is home to you What is the truth and to Defend all of your race Never lose the values I have taught to you Always keep your moral and ideals Do never bring your flag disgrace Promise me my son before my corps Is turning pale to Grab my sword hold it to the sky And call out my hail Listen for the bronze horns Watch the lightning strike then You know I have reached Oden's end Of my warrior's trail Oh, my child please take heed Through you I am granted to live on These words more worth than you will ever know Make them live on from Father to Son
