《The Beheading Of A King》歌词

[00:00:00] The Beheading Of A King - Amon Amarth

[00:00:17] A mighty fleet came across the strait

[00:00:20] But Erik was prepared

[00:00:24] Five hundred Germans had come to his aid

[00:00:27] On horseback with their spears

[00:00:32] The fleet was carrying two thousand men

[00:00:39] Eager to draw blood

[00:00:46] But as they were about to land

[00:00:53] Erik released his heards

[00:01:12] One thousand men

[00:01:13] And five hundred horsemen

[00:01:15] Came charging down the beach

[00:01:19] When the sea-king saw this force

[00:01:22] He gave order to retreat

[00:01:26] All obeyed except one ship

[00:01:29] It held the king's own son

[00:01:32] He despised the thought of flight

[00:01:36] And attacked on his own

[00:01:41] The Danish fleet had to turn around

[00:01:47] They charged King Erik's men

[00:01:54] But it was too late to save his son

[00:02:01] His life was already spent

[00:02:08] The fighting continued bloody and fierce

[00:02:15] And the bloodshed was immense

[00:02:22] Two thousand warriors died that day

[00:02:29] Most of them were Danes

[00:02:48] The Danish king was captured

[00:02:51] Most of his guards were dead

[00:02:55] For a ransom he was released

[00:02:58] Then his people took his head
