Heimdall - Return To The Fatherland

Many years have passed Many wars I have fought Before I came back to you For you I killed - for you I cried O Cradle of my life I ran away towards some place far beyond I told you farewell in order to defend The honour of thy noble flags After many clashes - After long journeys I see you again, my lovely home Dark, sad and still - No word, no move To welcome my arrival Are these grey stones all of the grandeur left by war? No - not all thy strength, not all thy fame is gone Not all the memories in you live Among these ruined walls, my Lords I feel a great power still lives So in this lonely place it shines on Witness of the ancient glory Among these ruined walls, my Lords I feel the immortal spirits live So in this lonely place they shine on Guardians of the ancient glory.
