The Lion From the North

A time of religion and war legends tell the tale of a lion This beast in the shape of a man with a dream to rule sea and land And all those who stand in his way die by God and victorious arms With the righteous that follows him south once more set ashore to war Legends have taught battles fought this lion has no fear at heart Lion come forth come from the north, come from the north Gustavus Adolphus, Libera et impera Acerbus et ingens, Augusta per angusta A storm over Europe unleashed dawn of war a trail of destruction The power of Rome won't prevail, see the Catholics shiver and shake The future of warfare unveiled showed the way that we still walk today Der Löwe aus Mitternacht comes once more he is here for war Stories of old truth unfold control over Europe he holds Freedom he'll bring lion and king, lion and king Gustavus Adolphus, Libera et impera Acerbus et ingens, Augusta per angusta Gustavus Adolphus go forth libera impera (Gustavus Adolphus Libera et impera) Acerbus et ingens go forth libera impera (Acerbus et ingens Augusta per augusta) Mighty eagle rule alone Liberator claim the throne Lion from the northern land Take the scepter from its hand Mighty eagle rule alone Liberator claim the throne Lion from the northern land Take the scepter from its hand (Oh, oh, oh, you lion from the north, oh, you lion from the north) Mighty eagle rule alone Liberator claim the throne Lion from the northern land Take the scepter from its hand Legends have taught battles fought this lion has no fear at heart Lion come forth, come from the north, come from the north Gustavus Adolphus, Libera et impera Acerbus et ingens, Augusta per angusta Gustavus Adolphus go forth libera impera (Gustavus Adolphus Libera et impera) Acerbus et ingens go forth libera impera (Acerbus et ingens Augusta per augusta) --- The Lion From The North - Sabaton
