Only bravery
Music & lyrics: Metsatöll

Yes, the prow of the sailing ship bites the foaming sea
Filled with steel-gray vigour is every mans soul
When the gusts blow foam-white waves over the heads
The men are not afraid, dread has no meaning for them

When the sea-mans eye swallows the blood-red dawn
Then free is our spirit and free is our soul

As the boats from the sea-ship settle down on the shore
Every breath draws in the stench of foreign soil
The hands dont hold swords, the clan bears no spears
But if needed, every fist grips a blade, with power from rage

When the sea-mans eye swallows the blood-red dawn
Then free is our spirit and free is our soul
The heart feels no fear, we wont stray from the path
Only bravery seven fathoms and the strength of free men

The brine has soaked my wind-hardened coat
Gales have entangled the stumpy beard that measures the wind

As the sailing ship fades away to the horizon
Every mans thoughts are with the seamans chest
A handful of soil from ones own garden
Sharp steel, a piece of bread and a sweethearts letter

When the sea-mans eye swallows the blood-red dawn
Then free is our spirit and free is our soul
The heart feels no fear, we wont stray from the path
Only bravery seven fathoms and the strength of free men
The heart feels no fear, we wont stray from the path
Only bravery seven fathoms and the strength of free men

I imagine this song is played on repeat in the halls of Valhalla with millions of viking gods violently drinking huge horn-mugs of dark beer.

Meie väikesel rahvusel on võimas ajalugu, mida pannakse ka laulu sisse. Võimas! Eestlased on võitlejad tüübid. Võidu saavutamiseks kulugu või aastasadasid aga peaasi, et võit tuleks.

Very good song ! I have never heard a song from them before and it makes me eager to discover the other tunes. Hail from France !

Hmm ... I don't understand anything that is going (the animation or the words) but I like this style, haha. The way the animation is made looks great.

@Saarlane12345 Or wait nevermind.

@Saarlane12345 Well if there was vikings in estonia that means that there might have been finnish ones too too then.Because back then there wasnt any nationalitites.There was baltic finns(finns,karelians,estonian­s,livonians..) so I guess you could say that finns were too but not in Finland.
