  • Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin;

    For the sake of Skyrim,

    For the Nine! For the Thu'um!

    ~rest is inaudible in English~

  • is this actually a real language? O.O

  • 0:54 Charlie sheen! Dovahkin! Isn't simple Skyrim! Oh my gawd! Kong fu! It's the law of the state! BlablablablablaRAH!! It is no sin or tan! Dovahkin! Marklin! Oh my gooohood a cow! RAH! Boo!
  • A moment ago, i was sitting in a freezing-cold room, shivering like a topless Breton on Mount Altmor. Then...

    -Presses play-

    Yay! Now i feel warmer than Dovahkiin's arms when he fought that dragon with a sleeveless tunic on. :D

  • 1:27 where have you gone :< ?

  • I tried singing along, but I just couldn't get the words right. :(

  • I need to teach a choir this song.

  • Epickie 

  • why i keep thinking about conan the barbarian listening this theme

  • Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin! Not a single sardine!!!

  • When i sing along... i feel like i have absorb some dragon souls. IT awesome...

  • J en ai des frissons ^^

  • what kind of lanugage is this?

  • @SillyCake96 its the dragon language. this language was done for this game :)

  • @memorial2k8 oh ohwell! :D

  • @SillyCake96 the tongue of the dragons

  • Dragon Hunter Born

  • @Exsocet98 Dragon's tongue, draconic.

  • nothing get's u more pumped up than to have this as a wake up call in the morning

  • This would be good, if whoever the idiot who recorded it from the game didn't record it in mono...

  • sounds like the old scandinavian language =P

  • 'wah dein vokul mahfaeraak' in the 3rd line also sounds like 'For the Nine, for the truth'. the nine meaning the 9 gods.

  • @TheMightyKinkle True XD

  • @Nima902 yeah he saves you and your head from getting chopped off... then later you go out and kill him to his, literally, d-e-a-t-h

  • if my computer had sound, i would totaly know how to translate.

  • i can sing this song in dragon language. then i took a fus ro dah in the face

  • in the "Alduin Bane of Kings" verse, you're missing the first 3 lines:

    Ahrk fin kel lost prodah

    Do ved viing ko fin krah

    Tol fod zeymah win kein meyz fundein!

  • This game is so epic that it has its own language.

    AWESOME.

  • This is the internet. How have you all failed to completely understand what is happening. Stop translating. Give the lyrics to what is being sung, THEN give "translations" you self super-intelligent sounding Fuckheads.

  • What about:

    Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin

    Took an arrow to knee

    How did he, how did he

    It's a mystery.

    Sorry, I couldn't help it :P

  • @AL2VAR pretty sure it was Dovahkiin Dovakiin took an arrow to the knee but went on adventuring unlike you or me Hooah!

  • @ratholin Maybe he has better knee armor ;P

  • @AL2VAR Actually, this made me lol! XD

  • i can't wait until this becomes an actual language, like klingon did XD

  • because suddenly everyone is a specialist in dragon language

  • The quality of this audio makes my ears bleed.

  • Alduin is my best friend

  • Lyrics:(Dragon Language)....*fus ro dah*

  • wonder if the first chanting is a thu'um

  • Real lyrics:

    Brother in, Brother It, Brother sing your story, Brother guy, Brother cool, bucket of the sky, baby dont oh my god, don't eat those socks! Brother in, Brother it, Bucket of lube-RAWR. YAH!

  • We should all learn the lyrics to this and go Christmas caroling

  • @The5thAstronaut i did :D

  • the guy who made it is awesome, it rhymes in dragon and english

  • @therealGLAD

    In french too i think...not the same lyrics, but they mean the same thing :)

  • People the song is in both english and dragonic sung in harmony. Seriously its not that hard to figure out. Guess the guy who posted this up should clear things up in description cuz these people are annoying.

  • 13 dragons dislike this

  • Not the real lyrics...

    "Dovahkiin, our king,"

    Dovahkiin IS NOT A KING and a girl can be a Dovahkiin.

    "For Hrothgar's blood,"

    High Hrothgar IS A FUCKING BUILDING.

  • @123Medmedmed You are mistaken my friend High Hrothgar may be building it is also the name of the mountain "For Hrothgar's blood" is metaphorical not in a literal sense. "Dovahkin, our king" although the game gives you the option to choose between genders the theme was made centered around a male character a nord male that is. If you pay attention to the trailers you'll see this. The lyrics are not wrong.

  • @DHaJ40

    No they are wrong. I have the official guide and the lyrics and they are in dragon language.

    elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Sk­yrim_Soundtrack

  • the exact translation is Dovahkiin! Dovahkiin! Naal Ok Zin Los Wahriin! Wah Dein Vokul Mahfaeraak Ahst Vaal, Ahrk Fin Norok Paal Graan! Fod Nust Hon Zindro Zaan, ... Dovahkiin Fah Hin Kogaan Mu Draal! Dragonborn! Dragonborn! By His Honor Is Sworn! To Freeze Evil Forever At Bay, And The Fierce Enemy Rout! When They Hear Triumph's Shout, Dragonborn For Your Blessing We Pray! according skyrims guidebook!
  • #4 Alduin, Bane of Kings, ancient shadow unbound, with a hunger to swallow the world! But a day, shall arise, when the dark dragon's lies, will be silenced forever and then! Fair Skyrim will be free from foul Alduin's maw! Dragonborn, Dragonborn by his honor is sworn To keep evil forever at bay! And the fiercest foes rout when they hear triumph's shout, Dragonborn, for your blessing we pray!
  • @BreathOfTheLion

    Thats even better when you think about it, the english version speaks of the return of dragonborn, yet the dragonic version is talking about alduin.

  • #3 This, translated into English, comes out as Dragonborn, Dragonborn by his honor is sworn To keep evil forever at bay! And the fiercest foes rout when they hear triumph's shout, Dragonborn, for your blessing we pray! Hearken now, sons of snow, to an age, long ago and the tale, boldly told, of the one! Who was kin to both wyrm and the races of man with a power to rival the sun cut through enemies all as the Dragonborn issued his roar!
  • #2 Alduin, feyn do jun, kruziik vokun staadnau, voth aan bahlok wah diivon fin lein! Nuz aan sul, fent alok, fod fin vul dovah nok, fen kos nahlot mahfaeraak ahrk ruz!

Ahrk fin norok paal graan fod nust hon zindro zaan Dovahkiin, fah hin kogaan mu draal!
  • #1 The lyrics are as follows Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin naal ok zin los vahriin wah dein vokul mahfaeraak ahst vaal! Ahrk fin norok paal graan fod nust hon zindro zaan Dovahkiin, fah hin kogaan mu draal! Huzrah nu, kul do od, wah aan bok lingrah vod Aahrk fin tey, boziik fun, do fin gein!

  • Just Google Skyrim Soundrtack and click the Skyrim Wiki link...

    For those who don't know...

  • zu kurz weil die geschnittene version... gibt ne volle die knapp 4 minuten geht ^^

  • EVERY SHUT THE FUCK UP AND ENJOY THE MUSIC!

  • Dovahkiin, our king,

    Who will dawn with fire! So that means that the main character in skyrim which is the dragon born - dovahkiin will become the emperor of tamriel and the high king of skyrim when he is recognized as dragon born?

  • @xiaoacid No it means he is the hero of Skyrim.

  • you're all wrong. this are the lyrics: Holy shit, what is this? Forged in God's very flames. Do mine eyes tell me lies, A new Elder Scrolls Game? Time is nigh, I must fly, Venture forth on my quest. Goodbye Ma, goodbye Pa And goodbye Girlfriend's breasts. I'll be off Azeroth, catch you later Hyrule. I'll be gone Albion, I'm no longer your fool. Other crap filled the gap While I waited to begin... The adventure of my life in the land of Skyrim!
  • @Ripper177 and now stop bitching about stuff that doesn't even matter. just enjoy the game

  • You guys are fucking retarded, there are THREE versions of this theme, one in dovah, one a direct translation of dovah and one that actually says "For the king". THREE versions.

  • That "for the king" stuff is creative, but stupid, the lyrics are written in the dragon-tounge so the translation is this:

    Dragonborn, dragonborn

    By his honour is sworn

    To keep evil forever at bay

    And the fiercest foes rout

    When they hear triumph's shout

    Dragonborn, for your blessing we pray.

  • @RevanorSzeged theres some subtext here, it was written in away to almost sound english, so really, there are two sets of translations, The Literal dragon language version, translated by you and others, and theres the "hidden" English words a lot of us hear, is it difficult to believe that maybe bethesda had more then just the intention of giving long time players a song to traslate?

  • @RevanorSzeged and in dragonspeak: Dovahkiin Dovahkiin Naal ok zin los vahriin wah dein vokul mahfaeraak ahst vaal ahrk fin norok paal graan fod nust hon zindro zaan Dovahkiin fah hin kogaan mu draal ahrk fin kel lost prodah do ved viing ko fin krah tol fod zeymah win kein meyz fundein Alduin feyn do jun kruziik vokun staadnau voth aan bahlok wah diivon fin lein
  • @RevanorSzeged Thats not all the lyrics.

  • Soooo, does the chant mean the same thing in Draconic? Obviously not, because Dovahkiin is Dragonborn... so, what does it mean in Draconic?

  • in the descrption theres my last name....aber lol

  • I can't help but say FUS ROH DAH! at 0:53.

    Its hilarious.

  • sooo..apparently im actually not dragonborn. cause i cant read dragonic...damn it.

  • ok i think the first line is dovahkiin dovahkiin, idk where everyone gets king from

  • Alright men. We know what must be done. We all must learn the lyrics and may this song be heard from all four corners of the earth.

  • Dovahkiin means Dragonborn, but english lyrics is For the King, thumbs up to clear any confusion

  • @VengeanceDUDE that's totally not true, this is sung by the Greybeards! the "For the king" lyrics are totally fake, the greybeards would never sing for the king. And Hrothgar is a place, not a person. I'm telling you those english lyrics are not real ;)

    thumbs up so that people who don't know anything of skyrim won't make up stuff like this anymore :)

  • @VengeanceDUDE Sorry man but you're wrong, the english translation is still dragonborn. I can't say for sure that the english lyrics presented in the description of this video are necessarily wrong because the lad who uploaded this vid seems to be german, so it might be a draconic to german to english translation.

  • @VengeanceDUDE

    Confusion? It's obvious hehe. Anyway the translation is Draconic. So it goes like this:

    Dragon Born Dragon Born

    For his honour is sworn...

    These lyrics are painfully incorrect :-)

  • @VengeanceDUDE Nope wrong to clear up the confusion you just caused the lyrics are all in Dragon Tongue which when translated to English makes seance. I.E. the first verse is: "Dragonborn, Dragonborn by his honor is sworn. To keep evil forever at bay! And the fiercest foes rout when they hear triumph's shout, Dragonborn, for your blessing we pray!" "For the king" is misheard and has nothing to do with the song. In fact that is totally fan made if I remember right.

  • @KILLERREZ666 YOU ARE TOTALLY RIGHT..................... I expect to see 130 pics tomorrow

  • @VengeanceDUDE stop making stupid comments to get thumbs, just the fact that you asked for thumbs makes you a thumb-whore that likes it in the ass.

  • @TheSouleater66 Haha, thats my first Thumbs Up comment, I dont do them but I found it necessary to do it on that comment, because I thought those lyrics were real. Sorry about that...

  • @VengeanceDUDE You obviously never pay attention to the lore

  • @VengeanceDUDE You know you could be right, except that skyrim is currently kingless...

  • (first line) Dovahkiin dovahkiin (first line in translation) For the king!

    For the king! (last line) dovahkiin fah hin kogaan mu draal (last line translation),Dovahkiin, our king,Who will dawn with fire! How is it that first Dovahkiin is for the king but at the end its dovahkiin ? and dovahkiin is dragonborn not for the king

  • its draconic. Dovahkiin Dovahkiin Naal ok zin los vahriin Wah dein vokul mahfaeraak ahst vaal Ahrk fin norok paal graan Fod nust hon zindro zaan Dovahkiin Fah hin kogaan mu draal Translated to... Dragonborn Dragonborn By his honor is sworn To keep evil forever at bay And the fiercest foes rout When they hear triumph's shout Dragonborn for your blessing we pray
  • DOVAHKIIN DOVAHKIIN NAAL OK ZIN LOS VAHRIIN

  • bethesda posted a trailer it is done in dragonetounge, people dont go off spouting ignorant shit just cause you want to be right look this shit up, and iff your too stupid then i guess your just going to be an ignorant fuck your whole life

  • The language foes exist. They made it for the game and the lyrics translate to "Dragon bore dragon bore by his honor is swarn, to keep evil forever at bay, and the fiercest foes rout when they hear, triumph's shout, dragon born for your blessing we pray

  • epic *___*

  • Lol'ing at all the people who don't understand this song is in Dragontongue.

  • I haven't fapped all month. I'm hoping I come while I play the game.

  • today is the day

  • Amazing, just amazing

  • @weever8 Totally agree! Back in '07 my mate and I started looking up anything on elder scrolls V... Luckily here in Australia the countdown is down to 15hrs! (not that I'm keeping a vigil by the calendar and clock lol)

  • along time ago it was 5 years now its 2 days!! omg cant wait!

  • soz i didnt read the description

  • I thought it went 'dovahkiin dovahkiin for the sake of skyrim, for our lands for our homes for the hrothgars blood' or sumin like that

  • @demonwolf379 no that was fanmade but fits nicely :D

  • Why do people think it's so cool to repost the lyrics in the comments in dragontounge?

  • DOVahKiiN DOVahKiiN NaaL OK ZIN LOS VahRiiN Wah DeiN VOKUL MahFAERaaK ahST VaaL ahRK FIN NOROK PaaL GRaaN FOD NUST HON ZINDRO ZaaN DOVahKiiN Fah HIN KOGaaN MU DRaaL ahRK FIN KEL LOST PRODah DO VED ViiNG KO FIN KRah TOL FOD ZeyMah WIN KeiN MeyZ FUNDeiN ALDUIN FeyN DO JUN KRUZiiK VOKUN STaaDNAU VOTH aaN BahLOK Wah DiiVON FIN LeiN

  • Epic! Can't await 11.11.11

  • Actully it is

    Dovahkin dovahkiin

    For the Sake of Skyrim

    For the land far or home

    for Hrothgar's blood

    For the nords and for gods

    and the Sole single son

    Dovahkiin Dovahkiin who will dawn with fire. so the description is right except for the first two word

  • @MindlessAF the song was written in dragon language. they said it. Theres no english words used

  • Comment removed

  • the songs in dragonic. the the first two lines (untranslated) are:

    DOVahKiiN, DOVahKiiN

    DOVah (the rest of the words from that line haven't been added to the dragonic dictionary page yet)

  • Comment removed

  • zuu kurz für ein solch episches spiel... aber die sekunden die hier laufen... einfach phänomenal!!!

  • Nope the lyrics has it right cause if you pay attention at the end it doesn't say "for your blessing we pray" its says "who will dawn with fire" so please don't trust what you've read on the back of game informer that was a poem not the actual lyrics.

  • no its lalallalalalallalalalalalaaaaa­aaaaalalalaalallalaaaaaaala la

  • now sing the lyrics to the morrowind theme it works!

  • @Kuastoyn I think it's Latin but I'm not 100% sure

  • @DuFfMaN8796 its draconic, a made up language by the people behind the elder scrolls. its no where near latin!

    Though they made this song with the intent to let it be heard in two different languages since the theme is blurry at many points and contains a whoal lot of shouting, so it can hear both it in draconic and english. absolutly geniusly made. kudos to the people in bethesta.

  • @fjerdy thank god someone else noticed. any idea if their doing a dragonic dictionary?

  • @fjerdy it looks like a mixture between russian and some skandinavian langauge.

  • @GalliadII The language is closely related to the germanic languages (the same family Scandinavian is from), most likely a mix between Old East Norse and Old West Norse (perhaps just a modified Proto-Norse). I know the alphabet used in the game is a little like one of the Runic Old Norse languages.

  • @fjerdy it's even more genius if you consider the fact that when you climb the throat of the world and read all the tablets on the way, you learn that the dragons were given a voice first, then a god gave the gift of voice to man.

    So naturally having the same roots, the dragon language would sound kind of familliar, even if it developed into different paths over the course of millennia.

  • @fjerdy you know this is actually a complete language with fonts and everything?

  • they say it is in a different language but I'm pretty sure it was in English and gave it a different meaning:)

  • Did they come up with a whole language?

  • funny how most ppl think its english.... cause its not its dragon tough. i emailled them and asked. dragon langauge translated: dragonborn dragonborn, by is honor is sworn, to keep evil, forever at bay, the fierstest of foes rout when they triumhps shout, dragonborn, for your, blessing we pray. I SUCK AT SPELLING! DONT SAY ANYTHING PLZ!!!

  • guys, sorry to burst your bubble but it's English. yes it would be cool if they sang it in ayleid or dragonic. but this is plain good ole' English. and the first lyrics in the description are right too. it's not an opinion but a fact. if you disagree, well you just need a new set of ears.

  • Comment removed

  • in what language are the original lyrics in?

  • @maxsteelflex Drakonic, a made up language of the dragons (made just for skyrim)

  • @77shahzaib mate, it's english.

  • @MrNewpants nooo those are the misheard english ones

  • @77shahzaib actually there are two clearly different versions of the song ^^ ie the one in the 'gameplay trailer' is not in english, but this one is. ^^

  • wäre geil wenn die das im spiel als schlachtruf hätten einfach nur episch 8)

  • This is porn for my ears.

  • haha I cant believe Bethesda had people actually write lyrics for the oblivion theme

  • @hat1324 Oblivion? Oblivion didn't have any lyrics but it is cool that Bethesda wrote lyrics for the Skyrim theme.

  • @MsNoMercY666

    P.S. "Find ich’s übelst geil, wie manipulierbar Menschen doch sind, wenn man absichtlich etwas falsch macht."

    Anhand deiner unzähligen Fehler in deiner "Korrektur" (wie du es bezeichnest) glaube ich dir nicht, dass hier Absicht dahinter steckt! Du kannst es einfach nur nicht, weil du nicht sonderlich begabt bist! :D

  • @forcarwe

    hmmmm...Schon erstaunlich wie oft du meine meinung dir gegenüber bestätigst, wenn nicht Schon Lächerlich

    Zumal du offen zugibst das du Google und Wiki Benutzt um meine fehler zu korregieren und nicht dazu dein Erarbeitetes Wissen benutzt

    ich Wette mit dir du Schreibst sogar vorher alles in Word und Benutzt die Rechtschreibprüfung:D

    Aber Thx das du Wenigstens Dazu Stehst^^

  • Everybody below me is no lives. Dont get me wrong i love the game but wtf. I dont know the whole dragon language

  • man was freu ich mich auf das game! das wird auf jedenfall MEIN game 2011!

  • This is the actual translation of the lyrics, the one in the description is made up: -- Dragonborn Dragonborn

    By his honor is sworn,

    To keep evil at bay,

    And the fiercest foes rout,

    When they hear triumph's shout,

    Dragonborn for your blessing we pray.

  • @Dulcis90 thats is right! im surprised somebody else actually translated it from dragon :D

  • @Dulcis90 If you listen closely you can hear at the ending, Dovahkiin, our king. That is what convinces me that this is the correct lyrics. No matter what an old writing on a wall says :P

  • @ninjatiger95 The Bethedsa Sound Engineer said it himself in an interview, that it was a dragon tongue.

  • @TigranTheMetz hell no he didn't. it's in english. link that interview of yours and I might reconsider, but I doubt such a interview exists.

  • @MrNewpants /watch?v=A1_XbF56LGo here you go

  • @Dulcis90 Yes, obvously made up.

    In the official teaser it even SAYS Dovahkiin is translated as Dragonborn. NOT "for the king".

  • @Dulcis90 No it's not, you can even here the english when the chanting starts and it says " For the King For the King, For the sake of Skyrim, For our land! For our home. For Hrothgar's blood. For the Nords

    And for the Gods

    For the sole single son, Dovahkiin, our king

    Who will dawn with fire!

  • @Dulcis90 Mainyl, the one in the description is not a translation.

  • @Dulcis90 Yeah, sure *mainly.

  • Which one is it in, English or Dragon?! I hope Dragon...

  • Comment removed

  • was ist das für eine sprache in den lyrics der untere text?

  • @Henc92

    Dragon zu Deutsch Dragonisch ist wohl die Sprache der Nords Aus der Elderscrolls reihe

  • @MsNoMercY666 dovahkiin heisst nich for the king das heisst dragonborn oda drachenblut sagt der doch im trailer

  • @mexx2602 Die ist Korrekt, wie aber des öfteren schon erwähnt habe ich die englishen subs aus nem forum, und da der soundtrack lange zeit vor dem trailer erschien, war es damals die gängigste übersetzung

    jedoch seh ich jetzt keinen grund das abzuändern da das spiel in den nächsten tagen sowieso rauskommt

  • Dude your lyrics are wrong. The should be:

    Dragonborn! Dragonborn!

    By his honor is sworn

    to keep evil

    forever at bay,

    and the fiercest foes rout

    when they hear triumph's shout.

    Dragonborn, for your

    blessing we pray.

    Achja und von wegen zu kurz .. das ist nur ein Teaser vom Maintheme. Auf Gameinformer kannst du bei den Making of zum Soundtrack einen größeren Teil des Liedes hören.

  • @Fuinris

    wenn du oben in englisch schreibst solltest dus unten auch tun

  • @matzmajobo

    wenn oben das enflishe ist ist wohl jedem klar das unten die originalfassung vom englishen steht in dem falle Dragonik
