Noregsgard
Storm Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Han fulgte furu og sus
Opp gjennom asen, grastein og mark
Staut hans gange var
Svopt I morgengry
Under en helnorsk himmel
Hans fotter traurig vandret hen
Mot sitt mal og pa hoyde
Ein vaerbitt hand griper sverdet fatt
Og kloyver blamennenes skalle
Hans kjeft den vrir seg I ulmende hat
Ufreden kommer at falle
Sa stod han der pa utkikkstopp
Hans oyne ei fekk kvile
For han sokte reint et syn
Men det blei ein grusom pine
Der blant norges skog og mark
Hans grimme sinn skulle vise dem
At norsonn han har nok av tael
Norsonn tapte noregsgard for ein haer
Stolt han var da han kom igjen
For a kloyve dem med sitt sverd
English translate: Norway's Home
A strong guy from the farm went
He followed pine and breeze
Up through the hills, greystone and wilderness
Bold his steps was
Swathed in twilight
Under a (completely) norwegian sky
His feet steadily wandered
Towards their goal and upon heighs
A weatherbitten hand cluthes the sword
And cleaves the blumen's heads
His mouth twist in smoldering hate
Unpeace will fall
Then he stood there on the look-out top
His eyes couldn't rest
Because he sought a pure sight
But it became a cruel pain
There in the midst of norwegian forest and wilderness
His grim mind should show them
That a son of the north has lots of guts
The son of the north lost Norway's home to an army
Proud he was when he returned
To cleave them with his sword

a riff so good, they had no choice but to use it twice
Patrick Niehus
I agree. What do you do when you've created one of the best riffs ever heard in any song (let alone metal)? You use it twice? Fenriz and Wongraven....geniuses....
Patrick Niehus
All the riffs on this album are epic...'Oppi fjellet' is a masterpiece...
Patrick Niehus
@Ian Purdy as I'm sure you know mate, it's the same guy/s doing both songs, Fenriz the connection....Storm and Darkthrone....it don't get much better....scared the shit out of a LOT of 'white christs' back in the day playing this beautiful beautiful music...
Patrick Niehus
Of course, the Quintessence track is much heavier and has Nocturno Culto gargling molten steel and glass for extra value!!!
Patrick Niehus
Aye, it's right up there with the greatest metal riffs ever set down...some cool contemporary/mediaeval folk mashup things going on here...and heavy as balls too!
jetblackdemonblade
Satyr’s silky voice under the epic vocals of Fenriz, bravo
DANDA KASULE
Amazing angelical backing vocals by Karo Rueslåtten. Die schönste Stimme, die ich in meinem Leben gehört habe.
Adolfo Salinas Pérez
Endless love for Kari Rueslåtten.
Grant Castner
Quite possibly the best riff ever
