Lyrics
Verse 1:
Under starry skies, Valdrik, king of the ice,
Marches to the drums, his sword cuts like a vice,
His foes tremble beneath the shadow of his shield,
On the northern shores, where the cold is revealed.
His ships split the silver seas with might,
From deep fjords to plains washed in light,
Valdrik, the wise, conquers with no mercy,
His coffers full, but his heart bears unease.
Chorus:
O Valdrik, O king of the frozen breeze,
Your name echoes through eternity,
The songs rise, telling of your power,
But your tragic end, in silence, devours.
Verse 2:
In the golden hall, the feasts echo loud,
The king, crowned, among riches so proud,
He forged his kingdom with an iron hand,
But in his eyes, a weary light stands.
The wise whisper of dark prophecies to come,
Valdrik listens, but his spirit stays numb,
He knows gold cannot soothe every pain,
That even kings must one day be slain.
Chorus:
O Valdrik, O king of the frozen breeze,
Your name echoes through eternity,
The songs rise, telling of your power,
But your tragic end, in silence, devours.
Bridge:
One day, under stormy skies,
The king faces his final prize,
On the battlefield, where fate leads the way,
Valdrik stands tall, facing the shadowy fray.
Arrows rain, but he does not fall,
His icy gaze freezes the thrall,
He falls with honor, under a stormy sky,
His last breath carried by the winds, to fly.
Chorus:
O Valdrik, O king of the frozen breeze,
Your name echoes through eternity,
The songs rise, telling of your power,
But your tragic end, in silence, devours.
Outro:
Today, the bards sing your tale,
In the taverns, your name will not pale,
The children of the North remember you,
Valdrik, the king whose gold shone, but not his truth.
The mountains weep, the rivers whisper low,
Your soul wanders where the brave go,
O Valdrik, lord of the ice, rest in peace,
Your kingdom lost, but your legacy will not cease.
Verse 3:
Years have passed, yet the wind still whispers,
Valdrik’s deeds, his name echoes like rivers,
The warriors of the North gather in the night,
Under the same stars that saw his final fight.
Stone temples rise, bearing his name,
Carving his image, an eternal flame,
His riches scattered by the hands of his kin,
But his spirit lives on, in those who carry his sin.
Chorus:
O Valdrik, O king of the frozen breeze,
Your name echoes through eternity,
The songs rise, telling of your power,
But your tragic end, in silence, devours.
Verse 4:
The elders tell of a time long past,
When Valdrik, in his dreams, sought to outlast,
Not through gold or fleeting glory,
But in the memory, where love tells the story.
He hid a treasure in the mountains lost,
Not of gems or gold, but wisdom’s cost,
A key for those who seek true peace,
A king’s legacy, that will never cease.
Chorus:
O Valdrik, O king of the frozen breeze,
Your name echoes through eternity,
The songs rise, telling of your power,
But your tragic end, in silence, devours.
Bridge 2:
On the northern roads, the bards still sing,
Of his tale, under the harsh sky’s ring,
Every word a tribute to his might,
But also a reminder of the heart’s fragile light.
Kingdoms rise, and kingdoms fall,
But Valdrik’s story remains, deep and tall,
In the legends of the North, he is more than a king,
He is the shadow that guides, where courage springs.
Chorus:
O Valdrik, O king of the frozen breeze,
Your name echoes through eternity,
The songs rise, telling of your power,
But your tragic end, in silence, devours.
Outro 2:
The winds howl still, in the icy peaks,
They carry his name, like a sacred mystique,
Valdrik, lord of ice, immortal king,
Rest in peace, your legacy’s eternal ring.
The snow falls, covering the traces of time,
But in each flake, your story is enshrined,
O Valdrik, your reign endures beyond the years,
In the hearts of the North, where light clears the fears.
