The Lion From the North - Sabaton

A time of religion and war

Legends tell the tale of a lion

This beast in the shape of a man

With a dream to rule sea and land

And all those who stand in his way die

By God and victorious arms

With the righteous that follows him south

Once more, set ashore, to war!

Legends have taught

Battles fought

This lion has no fear at heart

Lion, come forth

Come from the north

Come from the north

Gustavus Adolphus

Libera et impera

Acerbus et ingens

Augusta per angusta

A storm over Europe unleashed

Dawn of war, a trail of destruction

The power of Rome won't prevail

See the Catholics shiver and shake

The future of warfare unveiled

Showed the way that we still walk today

Der Löwe aus Mitternacht comes

Once more, he is here, for war

Stories of old

Truth unfold

Control over Europe he holds

Freedom he'll bring

Lion and King

Mighty eagle, rule alone

Lion from the northern land

Take the scepter from his hand

Mighty eagle, rule alone

Liberator, claim the throne

Lion from the northern land

Take the scepter from his hand

Mighty eagle, rule alone

(Oh, you lion from the north)

Liberator, claim the throne

(Oh, you lion from the north)

Take the scepter from his hand

Mighty eagle, rule alone!

Liberator, claim the throne!

Lion from the northern land

Take the scepter from his hand
