Here I am : enemies : come and taste the steel of my sword
the earth was still young and the land all new when it was forged
ore of themountain towering wowards endless sky
the runes down its blade the last thing you will see before you die
In the spring we sailed from Asa Bay with wind and tide
twenty-nine in all we were : bloodbrothers side by side
down foreign coasts : across the ocean : wind would fill our sail
high adventures : better to fall by the sword than to die from age or ail
The emperor I served in Miklagard : grand guard was I
me and my brothers in gold were paid : on my sword I did rely
returning to Nordland by horse : ambushed were we
and so here I am : come enemies : cornered with my back to the sea
The ground beneath our feet all red awash with human blood
severed limbs and bodies dead : prepare to meet thy God
shoulder by shoulder : knee by knee : bloodbrothers by my side
forgive me mother for missing the unseen blow that cut me down from behind
All still : no more pain : the wind whispering my name
this wound my last : the darkness around me seems vast
Then a bright light I see : the clouds swirl and part before me
in the distance a woman approaching : with a gesture she invites me to proceed
Then a bronze horn I hear : it calls me : and the bridge seems to stretch for a lifetime
way before me a palace is rising : out of the mist : like a mountain it stands
And it greets me with gates open wide : all around me bloodbrothers by my side
and they show me the seat that bears my name : my place at the table of Oden I do claim
Bathory was a Swedish heavy metal band formed in 1983 by Quorthon (real name Lars-Göran Petrov). Considered pioneers of both black metal and Viking metal, they have profoundly influenced the underground music scene. The band's name derives from the infamous Hungarian Countess Elizabeth Bathory, known for her bloody practices and the legend surrounding her. Bathory released a series of fundamental albums, including "Blood Fire Death" (1987), considered a landmark in black metal, and "Hammerheart" (1990), which introduced folk and Viking elements. Other important albums are "Twilight of the Gods" (1996) and "Requiem" (2001). Among their most representative songs are "Total Destruction", "In League with Satan", "The Lake", "Equimanthorn" and "Outro Aeternum". Quorthon, the band's only constant member, handled all musical and production aspects until his death in 2004.
