To Become A Man

Your eyes wide open and your breath is getting short

Your face and your body are covered in cold sweat

This will be the first time for you, young warrior

It’s a matter of life and of death

Courage and belief will guide you on your unsafe path

Look forward, be strong and sly, my son

Use your sword the way I told you in the past

Trust in your skills and be a man

My hands lie on your shoulder – My sword is by your side

Your blood is running colder – We look forward to fight

Your piercing glance tells stories – About the fears of blood and death

The gods will save our human bodies – They’ll guide us to our last breath

The first fight for an unskilled warrior – Will turn you hard from boy to man

Your childhood’s ending here in battle – Now keep calm if you can

My hands lie on your shoulder – My sword is by your side

Your blood is running colder – We look forward to fight

Your piercing glance tells stories – About the fears of blood and death

The gods will save our human bodies – They’ll guide us to our last breath

The first fight for an unskilled warrior – Will turn you hard from boy to man

Your childhood’s ending here in battle – Now keep calm if you can
