A look in the young boy´s eyes
When given a sword and a shield
Mix of fear and determination,
beginning of a warrior´s life
Full of death and destruction
From the first slash of the sword
till the time a blade ends his life
and Death claims his own

This is the warrior´s tale
story of stained blades and blood spilled
Story of death and sorrow
yet one of glory and honor

Strength of a man´s arm
Keen edge of a blade
Defending land of ancestors,
meaning of a warrior´s life
protecting his home and faith
A sword flashes as it falls
cutting down another foe
a foe of his fathers´

Courage of an old warrior
Broken sword and shattered shield
Still standing at the gates
fighting countless enemies
Sunset of a warrior´s life,
dying for his kin shall live
The sword falls from a lifeless hand
and peace awaits in death.
