A Nordic Saga | [ Chapter II ] RAISED BY WINTER

Lyrics INTRO Kárr-hai... Skuo-rá... Tjáll-ke... Ruo-hkai... Skerr-á... Hnn-kai... Ráh-jo... --- VERSE I Morning broke through frozen pines... The wolves were already gone... One howl echoed through the hills... I knew where to run... Bare feet carved the morning frost... Skógr andar... Every breath became a cloud... Ek hleyp... Cold rivers shaped my little hands... Steinn vakir... I drank beside the silver stream... Vér lifðum... --- JOIK Tjoa-hnn... Skuo-rá... Hnn-kai... Skerr-á... Ruo-hkai... Tjál-lo... --- OLD NORSE Úlfr... Leið mik... Skógr minn... Ek rís... --- PRE-CHORUS The oldest waited on the ridge... Never called my name... One slow glance... One quiet step... I followed once again... Fresh snow buried every trail... Vetr kennir... I learned before I understood... Ek fylgði... --- CHORUS Wolf beside me... Úlfr vakir... Snow beneath me... Snær lifir... Ravens circled overhead... Hrafnar muna... Winter raised me... Ek stendr... No walls held me... No fear found me... The North became... My home... --- VERSE II Spring uncovered hidden rivers... Roots beneath the stone... Summer filled the forest floor... Berries stained my hands... Autumn whispered hunger first... Then the wolves would run... Every chase became a lesson... Every fall a guide... I learned the wind... I learned the rivers... I learned the ravens... Before men's voices... --- BUILD Years ran faster than the rivers... My footsteps matched the pack... No child hidden in the shadows... Only tracks... Moon above us... Snow around us... Breath together... Heart together... Hrafnar muna... Úlfar vaka... Skógr lifir... Ek stendr... --- FINAL CHORUS Wolf beside me... Úlfr vakir... Snow beneath me... Snær lifir... Ravens circled overhead... Hrafnar muna... Winter raised me... Ek stendr... One howl called me... One path shaped me... One frozen world... Became my blood... --- OUTRO Skuo-rá... Kárr-hai... Hnn-kai... Ruo-hkai... The wolves kept walking... I never stopped... Ek fylgði...
