Iron Sceptre Rises 2（バージョン2）

Verse 1 – male deep Viking baritone

Sands shift under the midnight sky

Frozen steel in my unyielding eye

Aegir's daughter calls me down to the shore

Where the longship creaks on a restless tide once more

I've left behind every worn and weary name

Only this darkness holds what I now proclaim

Pre-Chorus – ritual call-and-response chant

Who stands with me against the breaking light?

Rise! Rise to claim this iron sight

Chorus

Iron sceptre rises, hold it up high!

I'll never fall till Aegir's fire burns my sky!

No more chains upon my wrists, no more sea to tame!

Iron sceptre rises, I'll ride the coming flame!

Verse 2 – male deep Viking baritone

The wind it howls across the empty shore

A thousand ravens flying, every wave asks for more

I hold the weight of every forgotten name

This iron sceptre beats with a power that remains

The moon sets low in Aegir's darkened throne

I'll never kneel before another's light alone

This steel I forged from my own unbroken will

Now it shines where every chain once tried to fill

Pre-Chorus – ritual call-and-response chant

Who stands with me against the breaking light?

Rise! Rise to claim this iron sight

Chorus

Iron sceptre rises, hold it up high!

I'll never fall till Aegir's fire burns my sky!

No more chains upon my wrists, no more sea to tame!

Iron sceptre rises, I'll ride the coming flame!

Bridge – male deep Viking baritone

Hold this iron light where shadows once would creep

This is what I built from every lost sleep

Now Aegir's waves do answer back in praise

I'm not a name they tried to take and erase

Iron sceptre rises, cut through the dark!

Here comes nothing but steel in my unbroken spark!

Chorus

Iron sceptre rises, hold it up high!

I'll never fall till Aegir's fire burns my sky!

No more chains upon my wrists, no more sea to tame!

Iron sceptre rises, I'll ride the coming flame!
