The path leads higher up
Towards the snow-white peak of the black mountain
A noble view you can expect
Ancient strength and true honour
I baptize my mind
In the river of truth
That flows out of the mountain
This pitch-black vein
Out of the mount
A statue of might now rises
In the nordic night
A thousand eyes shine
This mountain fills me with power
This primal god that all troll-people worship
This earth, this power
Which has now dared to show itself
The promised might
Has not been denied
A spear I will forge and sharpen
The crown of the troll-people will honour my head*
The burden of the troll-people must be heavy
There will be day when I will be king
King over the people of the trolls
*he says this in the song, but has not been included in the lyrics
