Vinterblot Lyrics - Bathory

All male, nine by nine, hanging gently, swaying in the wind 

The bark of ash absorbing the splattered heays of blood 

For the return of the sun, a winter sacrifice 

Ox, dog, horse, sheep and slave, all offered to the gods 

The dusk of grey keeps falling upon the landscape bleak 

White gently still the bodies away, hanging in god's tree 

The ring of torches lighting up the heath, a ghostly shine 

The mighty ash unites the earth with sky for all time 

The golden meat flows freely, chant of the sun is sung 

The runes are read out loud and clear, midwinter night is long 

Lifegiving disc shall fill the sky once more in all its span 

The vinterblot, a reawakening, hail Nordland
