The Beheading Of A King Lyrics - Wrath Of The Norsemen - Amon Amarth

A mighty fleet came across the strait 

But Erik was prepared 

Five hundred Germans had come to his aid 

On horseback with their spears 

 

The fleet was carrying two thousand men 

Eager to draw blood 

But as they were about to land 

Erik released his heards 

 

One thousand men and five hundred horsemen 

Came charging down the beach 

When the sea-king saw this force 

He gave order to retreat 

 

All obeyed except one ship 

It held the king's own son 

He despised the thought of flight 

And attacked on his own 

 

The Danish fleet had to turn around 

They charged King Erik's men 

But it was too late to save his son 

His life was already spent 

 

The fighting continued bloody and fierce 

And the bloodshed was immense 

Two thousand warriors died that day 

Most of them were Danes 

 

The Danish king was captured 

Most of his guards were dead 

For a ransom he was released 

Then his people took his head
