Lyrics
[Verse]
From the mists of Scandinavia, a legend set sail,
Rurik the Jarl, with warriors clad in mail,
Across the icy waters, their purpose bold and grand,
To unite the Slavic tribes, a new and powerful land.
[break]
[Chorus]
Rurik! Rurik! The name that echoes through the ages,
A founder, a warrior, turning history's pages,
With sword and shield he battled, his legacy remains,
The Kievan Rus' he birthed, forever etched in names.
[Verse]
Novgorod's ancient city, a beacon in the north,
Rurik raised his banner, defying any wrath,
From Vikings and from Khazars, his forces held their ground,
A bulwark 'gainst the chaos, a fortress newly crowned.
[Chorus]
Rurik! Rurik! The name that echoes through the ages,
A founder, a warrior, turning history's pages,
With sword and shield he battled, his legacy remains,
The Kievan Rus' he birthed, forever etched in names.
[break]
[bridge]
The Varangian guard beside him, axes flashing bright,
Defending Kievan Rus' with all their fearless might,
From Kyiv to the steppes, his influence did grow,
The seeds of a great nation, for all the world to know.

[Chorus]
Rurik! Rurik! The name that echoes through the ages,
A founder, a warrior, turning history's pages,
With sword and shield he battled, his legacy remains,
The Kievan Rus' he birthed, forever etched in names.
[restyle Chorus]
Rurik! Rurik! The name that echoes through the ages,
A founder, a warrior, turning history's pages,
With sword and shield he battled, his legacy remains,
The Kievan Rus' he birthed, forever etched in names.
[Chorus]
Rurik! Rurik! The name that echoes through the ages,
A founder, a warrior, turning history's pages,
With sword and shield he battled, his legacy remains,
The Kievan Rus' he birthed, forever etched in names.
