Verse
In astonishing colours the East meets the West
The hill-banks arise in their green
In wonder I sit on my empty chest
As we glide down the strait in between
Bridge
To Holmgard and beyond
In search of a bond
Distant church bells toll
For their god they chant and troll
Pre-Chorus 1
Breathing history
Veiled in mystery
The sublime
The greatest of our time
Tsargrad!
Pre-Chorus 2
The Norwegian of rank
In the court of The Prince
I was convinced

Verse
My sun rose in the North and now sets in the South
The Golden Horn lives up to its name
From tower to tower a chain guards its mouth
Unbreakable, they claim
Bridge
To Holmgard and beyond
In a search of a bond
Adventures lie ahead
Many knots lie unravelled on my thread

Veiled in mystery
The sublime
The greatest of our time
