In great numbers we advance before dawn
By the great hail this great fight is born
Among the clouds now our black wings fills the air
No more front lines the holy battle is everywhere
Though death may await me on the battlefield
I die to go on but by the great hail I will go,
I am marching under the runes
Countless victories we fight side by side
Deep down in the oceans on land and way up in the sky
Comed this far now there is no way back or return
If we do withdraw the horizon will seem to burn
Though death now is closing in on me
I die to go on but by the great hail I will go,
I am fighting under the runes
Standing here now amidst the hell we have made
All signs of a wonder or to survive now seems to fade
But I am a fighter and I still have my pride
They are gonna have to kill, by my own hand I refuse to die
Though now death is all that awaits me
I die to go on but by the great hail I will go
I am dying under the runes
By the great hail this great fight is born
Among the clouds now our black wings fills the air
No more front lines the holy battle is everywhere
Though death may await me on the battlefield
I die to go on but by the great hail I will go,
I am marching under the runes
Countless victories we fight side by side
Deep down in the oceans on land and way up in the sky
Comed this far now there is no way back or return
If we do withdraw the horizon will seem to burn
Though death now is closing in on me
I die to go on but by the great hail I will go,
I am fighting under the runes
Standing here now amidst the hell we have made
All signs of a wonder or to survive now seems to fade
But I am a fighter and I still have my pride
They are gonna have to kill, by my own hand I refuse to die
Though now death is all that awaits me
I die to go on but by the great hail I will go
I am dying under the runes

¿What does your pathetic brain-washed little brains thinks that the "SS" letters representing the "Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei" or as you morons call it "nazi" were?. Probably something they invented up, considering the level of stupidity I see in your reply above. I will tell you, so maybe you will learn to think for yourself for the first time in your miserable life:
The "S" is the Sieg Rune, the VICTORY Rune, you retarded cunt.
And I am sure that you idiot, do not know the meaning of the word "Viking" either.
P.D.: Tomas Forsberg (Quorthon) admitted that he became a sympathiser of the National-Socialism.
