Amorphis
The Gathering
[Verse 1]
As I sense their steel
As I see the mighty one
As we all gather once again
The gods of war summon us
Summon us

[Bridge]
North wind blows to our valley
Men with ships, with swords, with honor

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Their horses between flames
Their dogs eating enemy childs
Our heavenly father, what is this mortality
Do you see my mortal agony

[Chorus]
Look, I see the shield up high
This must be the sign from my lord
This can be my death-sentence
What a fine day to die

[Verse 2]
Taste of blood comes up high
Wind blows hard, our men fall
One by one
This oath claims me
I must bleed for my generation
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Strong is the enemy
Strong is my sword
The hammer is rising
I feel their cold steel

[Chorus]
Look, I see the shield up high
This must be the sign from my lord
This can be my death-sentence
What a fine day to die

[Outro]
Now when I leave this world
I shall open the mighty oaken gate
And we all shall gather once again
