The Coronation Lyrics

The Coronation lyrics

Blow your trumpets, let the feast begin.

Sing for us minstrels tonight.

Let the coronation shimmer and shine

in the golden sun so bright.



In a velvet mantle he takes the oath:

[Birger:]

-I will
protect and serve my homeland

in the name of our lord.

Stand by me
and we will prevail.

[The crowd:]

-Hail!



Remember the
words of the old and wise

about what's wrong and what's right.

Do
you know greed's face, the tongue of the snake

or the shades of black and
white?



Receive the crown

and wear it with pride.

With
it comes more than just the glory and gold.

Embrace the task

to
stand by our side.

Fight for our freedom with the powers you now hold.
