Again the longship calls me to a journey,
All that remains is bidding my home farewell
Again my heart feels heavy, but I will return,
For the time being though, I cannot remain.
I left my fatherland,
The land of my fathers and grandfathers.
I will return, as promised
With victory!
With the morning dew I'll return.
Early spring I will return.
As snow or rain from the sky, I'll descend.
There, where I am awaited and loved, I'll return.
A look for the last time,
At the farewell hour,
Consumes my soul with fire.
Again the longship calls me to a journey
I cannot violate my oaths.
I left my fatherland,
The land of my fathers and grandfathers.
I will return, as promised
With victory!
With the morning dew I'll return.
Early spring I will return.
As snow or rain from the sky, I'll descend.
There, where I am awaited and loved, I'll return.
With the morning dew...
