Broken Silence – Ingeborg Lyrics

Over the mighty Sweden lives Ingeborg, the beautiful princess
Following the King there's Hjalmar, the brave champion who fights so hard
Both fell in love, a feeling so real even stronger than the sword's steel
But the King expects someone better, and Hjalmar would prove that he deserves her!

On the horizon, Norwegian ships under the command of Örvar-Oddr
He came to fight against Hjalmar but the opponent ships were too much
The Swedish hero equals its forces, to fight with honor, to be the strongest
Fighting for two days, neither yield, and at the end two blood-brothers would be!

"Oh Ingeborg, I foresee a battle to win your heart
Oh Ingeborg, also I see love and death in your life"

But this love story, it came to ears of Hjörvard, another of Ingeborg's courter
The King didn't have the guts to pick out between a hero and the Berserker one
Then Ingeborg choose Hjalmar, unleashing the wrath of Hjörvard
With Thyrfing on his side, the cursed sword, he challenges him to a duel that will end it all!

Fulfilling his duel, Hjalmar and Hjörvard fight for the love of Ingeborg
Bloodstained swords, a bloodstained plain and Hjörvard's body lying dead
But the cursed Thyrfing took Hjlmar's soul, dying but singing his death song
And at the end Arrowhead, carried his brother's corpse to the mournful Ingeborg...

"Oh Ingeborg, I foresee sadness in your broken heart
Oh Ingeborg, but still I see love and death for the rest of your life"
