Farewell Songtext / Lyric

Her love had left her lonely

He went with the western wind

On a boat that sailed for nowhere

Looking for new land.

Twenty fine young warriors

Went on board that day

The girl was crying badly

Her love had gone away.



Farewell, my love, farewell young warrior

May the gods be with you as brothers of the sword

Farewell, my love, farewell young warrior

I'll be waiting for you

I'll keep you in my heart






The years went by and no one

Heard of the boat again

The girl waited so long

By the harbour until her end.

She died sad and lonely

The black death raged across the land

Her love returned the next year

A broken man until this end.



Farewell, my love, farewell young warrior

May the gods be with you as brothers of the sword

Farewell, my love, farewell young warrior

I'll be waiting for you

I'll keep you in my heart



When the night is dark and cloudy

There's a whisper in the wind

A woman singing sadly

'bout her love that had to end

If you go down to the water

And stay there for a while

You may see the Vikings daughter

A vision from the other side.



Farewell, my love, farewell young warrior

May the gods be with you as brothers of the sword

Farewell, my love, farewell young warrior

I'll be waiting for you

I'll keep you in my heart

I'll keep you in my heart

Farewell my love
