The Lion From The North Lyrics - Carolus Rex - Sabaton

A time of religion and war, 

Legends tell the tale of a lion 

This beast in the shape of a man, 

With a dream to rule sea and land 

And all those who stand in his way, 

Will die, by God and victorious arms 

With the righteous that follows him south, 

Once more, set ashore, to war 

Legends have taught, battles fought, 

This lion has no fear at heart 

Lion come forth, come from the north, 

Come from the north 

Gustavus! Adolphus! 

Libera et impera! (Liberte and reign!) 

Acerbus et ingens! (Fierce and mighty!) 

Augusta per angusta! (Through narrow straits to sublimity!)

A storm over Europe unleashed, 

Dawn of war, a trail of destruction 

The power of Rome won't prevail, 

See the catholics shiver and shake 

The future of warfare unveiled, 

Showed the way, that we still walk today 

Der Löwe aus Mitternacht comes, 

Once more, he is here, for war 

Stories of old, truth unfold, 

Control over Europe he holds 

Freedom he'll bring, 

Lion and king, lion and king 

Gustavus! Adolphus! 

Libera et impera! (Liberte and reign!) 

Acerbus et ingens! (Fierce and mighty!) 

Augusta per angusta! (Through narrow straits to sublimity!)

Mighty eagle rule alone 

Liberator claim the throne 

Lion from the northern land 

Take the scepter, from its hand 

Oh, oh, oh you lion from the north, 

Ooooooooh you lion from the north 

Legends have taught, battles fought, 

This lion has no fear at heart 

Lion come forth, come from the north, 

Come from the north 

Gustavus! Adolphus! 

Libera et impera! (Liberte and reign!) 

Acerbus et ingens! (Fierce and mighty!) 

Augusta per angusta! (Through narrow straits to sublimity!)
