Vreid
The Sound of the River
[Verse 1]
A northbound path
Alone I walk this land
These lordless fields
Untouched by man
Through the narrow woods
Trees shield the wind
Just a whistling sound
Desolation becomes me

[Chorus]
The sound of the river
The source to my life
I walk along her
Adoring her pristine sight

[Verse 2]
I am of the earth
The past is my blood
Ancestors' rebirth
My seed grows
Under this majestic mountain
There is a prosperous field
This will be my homeland
Where my river streams

[Bridge]
Stone built on stone
Walls become to keep
The outside at a distance
My blood within reach
A body well worn
Scars of life
Here I live
Here I die
Die!

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
The sound of the river
The source to my life
I walk along her
Adoring her pristine sight
