Heimdall - Return To The Fatherland lyrics

Many years have passed

Many wars I have fought

Before I came back to you

For you I killed - for you I cried

O Cradle of my life

[pre-chorus]

I ran away towards some place far beyond

I told you farewell in order to defend

The honour of thy noble flags

After many clashes - After long journeys

I see you again, my lovely home

Dark, sad and still - No word, no move

To welcome my arrival

[pre-chorus]

Are these grey stones all of the grandeur left by war?

No - not all thy strength, not all thy fame is gone

Not all the memories in you live

[chorus]

Among these ruined walls, my Lords

I feel a great power still lives

So in this lonely place it shines on

Witness of the ancient glory

[chorus]

Among these ruined walls, my Lords

I feel the immortal spirits live

So in this lonely place they shine on

Guardians of the ancient glory
