Windir Blodssvik Lyrics

Eit helvetes svik
Eit avvik frao tru og æra
Ei handling utan omsut
Ei grueleg bør å bera

Naor da e so mørkast
Naor natti ikkje bli te dag
Dao e da lett å faddla i freisting
Dao e da lett for sviket å fao tak
Da e i dissa stunde ein lyte visa ken ein e
Da e i slike stunde sjeli vele veg

Ao oss ha du faott tryggleik
Ao oss ha du faott styrke
Vele du å fara ut med andre
Dao e valet gjort
Ætti dan e alt, du e ingenting
Leigge du ni sverdet e da eit blodssvik

Da ekje lett å velja, og valet kan verta hardt å svelja
Svik ein ætti ao veitskap og manglande mot
Dao e sjeli fordømde, og ein kan ikkje gjera bot

I mørke ao sorgi itte ættdlinagdns fall
Kretsa åtsle i kring og plyndra vaor gard
Itte generasjona me slit, skal me kjempa
For garden skal atter drivast ao Kvåle ætti

-- English translation --

Blood Betrayal

A hell of betrayal
A deviation from the belief and honor
An action without care
A heavy load to carry

When it is the blackest
When the night doesn't turn to day,
then it is easy to fall for temptation
then it is easy for fraud to obtain
It is in such moments, one should show who they are
It is in such moments the soul choose the way

to us that you have received safety
to us that you have been strengthening
If you choose to be with the other
when the decision is made
family is everything, you are nothing
if you lay down your sword, then it is a blood betrayal
This is not easy to choose, and the option can be hard to swallow
if you betray the families' history and lack courage
Then the soul is condemned, and you can not make fine

in the darkness and sorrow for the relatives' fall
beasts of prey circle around and pillage our farm
after generations of toil, we shall fight
For the farm to be under the Kvåle family again.
