Do not refuse, we'll burn your village! We will kill your sons We will rape your women! So... do you accept the bapizing, SongtexteIn the name of my god, and his holy Son, white-christ?" [Njal:] "Who is this white-christ? In the name of odin: I will challenge him!" The commander of the crusade: "Then die fool..." [Njal:] "So pull your swords my men! For odin and thor we will gain! We will fight to the last breath! For odin we'll stab you to death!" Swords crossed, the blood were floweing As the battle raged The pagan men were fighting will But they were far roo few The crusaders were bathing in blood For white-christ they killed, raped and burned And on the ground lied njal His guts and blood were wide spread The village lies now in ruins But he prefered this before submission Another day, another time The ancient gods of the north Will seek revenge against christ And those thousand slained shall be avenged...
