Tyr - Empire of the North

By the foot of the mountain, my forebears recount
Stood a hovel forlorn down by the bay
And at the edge of the sky, there's a fire as they fly
By the misty and magic break of day

Homebound
To old ground

They return from the east in rain and thunder
Unconcerned to the north with trade and plunder
And so many fell
We built mounds where they dwell
For the empire of the north

Far back east and down south
Whisperings, word of mouth
They found riches untold from far and wide

And on the isle in the lake
They left wealt in their wake
And a great sense of welldeserved pride

Home bound
To old ground

They return from the east in rain and thunder
Unconcerned to the north with trade and plunder
And so many fell
We built mounds where they dwell
For the empire of the north

Home bound
To old ground

They return from the east in rain and thunder
Unconcerned to the north with trade and plunder
Without grief or guilt
For decendants they built
Us and empire of the north

They return from the east in rain and thunder
Unconcerned to the north with trade and plunder
And so many fell
We built mounds where they dwell
For the empire of the north
