someone asked for the lyrics from vinland saga, so here they are:

Vinland Saga:

1000 years ago a Viking ship
left Norway in the spring

Tiden er kommet
Tiden vil vise
The Saga of Vinland
A saga of Norsemen

The new world they found they called Vinland
The Land of Wine

Stormen forte skipet
vestover mot ukjent land


Farewell Proud Men:

Look above into the misty air
I hear the waves reminding me of fear
I'm not alone but still I am confused
Will you return and will your dreams come true

Across the sea into shallow water
long ships' sails and sweeping oars
To walk the shores of golden sand
Across the sea into shallow water
long ships' sails and sweeping oars
Behold the shores of new land
To seek the shores of golden sand

Farewell proud men
Spirits will guide you
May they save you
Farewell proud men

Frightnening ocean sacred as the wind
I beg you please be careful with these men
At night I dream of wonders and of change
Will I receive a message from you then

Far from our own home
show me a future
Open the palace door
and I will follow you


Elegy:

Teardrop on a fragile eye-lash
She's looking like a dream
Hoping for some understanding
an answer or at least
A calming word a single sentence
to restore her heart
Aching since the day I left her
crossing lonely seas

Silent tears of a woman
make a warrior cry
Heaven I beg you
please release hopes from fears

This is my elegy
Do you know what I feel
This is my elegy
Do you believe it's real
Will I hold you in my arms again

Dewdrops on a single rose-bud
This purity of rain
reminds me of the moment I left her
Kisses filled with pain

And if I should leave her waiting
for another year
Will she ever know the answer
Will she wever follow me

A calming word a single sentence
to restore her heart
Aching since the day I left her
crossing lonely seas


Solemn Sea:

Seil den sterke sjo
Solen har gatt ned
i det vide havet
I det morke dypet
hviler en drom
om et ukjent land

The musiv of your heartbeat brightens me

Turn my fears into hope
Oceans of blue

Darkening sky the shadow fall
Foaming waves shatter us
I cry aloud into the sky
Solemn sea save me

Solemn sea save me

Wacht and wait for the next
attacking wave Ice-cold rain
the black mirror of the sea
watching me Save me

The humming of the waves frightenes me

Turn my fears into hope
Oceans of blue

A thunder storm roars at me
My body shakes in the rain
Lightening rays spearing me
A thousand spears haunting me


Leaves' Eyes

Summer goes
Winter comes
Leaves fall on frozen grounds
True love lasts forever
I imagine you in a thousand glimpses

Moonlight you keep me safe at night
And I know you're her if I fall

Seasons change
Spirits wake up
Birds fly away to far - away homes
True love last forever
I imagine you in a thousand glimpses

Moonlight you keep me safe at night
And I know you're here if I fall
Starlight show me the way in the dark
And I know you're here when I call

Leaves' Eyes

Children grow up
Parents grow old
Man's wives become mothers to sons
Sunna hides
Mani glows
Stars are watching over us


The Thorn:

I hope the he will be safe
Hopefully return in April
I've heard the winds speak of a fight
And it hit my heart like a thorn

Whispering voices appear
I can't escape what I feel
All I can see
All I believe in
is connected to our kindred souls

I feel the thorn in my/your flesh
The pounding of blood in my/your head
I/you cry aloud
I/you cry of anger
My/your enemy will never forget me/you

I heard you calling my name
I saw your colourless face
Fire in your eyes
Where do you go to
I dreamt of an enemy threatening you

Hold me
Breathe with me
until the end of time


Misseri (Turn Green Meadows into Grey):

Morning awakes
Night is drifting away
Winter's approaching
Time to go or stay
I see the migrants travelling
to a far-away world
Reflected in black waters and you

Turn green meadows into grey
Can you feel the winter waiting
Ice-cold rivers turn to blue
Can you see the jewel shining

Fire burning in my eyes
It warms my hands when I'm alone
There's no one here to hold me tight
Rain patterns against my window
or is he knocking at the door
Memories are growing stronger and you

Golden leaves under my shoes
Gathering birds in the sky
May I go with them
Let me fly with them
Let me fly to you
Let me fly to you
and be safe


New Found Land:

Beyong the boundaries of the known world
Where are the mountains and where are the fjords
Hundred of miles off the course we are lost
Clear skies return as we witness the shore

We sail the sea
We fight the storm
One-hundred men caught by endless passion
Adventure Norse Men
A hunting eye
One-hundred men on a holy mission

My arms are tired and my feet are cold
Hoping for shelter I'm hungry for food
My eyes see fire a gift from the Gods
What will we find at the end of the world

We have found new land

We set sail for Greenland
As we crossed the oceans
Awaiting the Midgard serpent
We finally found a new world

We have found new land
I see New Found Land


Mouring Tree:

So far away
but still so close
So many days
I've had to count
The meaning of life
comes true when I'm with you
For in me there's a flower growing

Tell him through the wind I am here
Whisper through the breeze not to fear
Taste it by the rain what I feel when you hold me
Reach out for the winds that we share
Then you will feel I am near
Taste it by the snow I am here where you left me

I told to the mourning tree

The long way home
is never too far
unless you've reached the end of life
My deepest wish
comes true when I'm with you
For in me there's a miracle growing


Twilight Sun:

Spring is calling
Time to leave
The winds have tolde me
She's waiting for me

Hear the tune
of northern winds

Twilight sun
will soon be gone
Guide me twilight sun
I will follow you home

Earth is awakening
The grass is green
The rivers sing
She's calling for me

Shivering leaves
Songs of home

For you
I will return

If I don't return I will leave a message
for you carved in stone


Ankomst:

I glitrende solskinn
et landskap som vakner
Vi seiler inn mot havnen

Hjem til deg i dine armer
En historie a fortelle

Ankomst ankomst gi meg havn
Ankomst ankomst apne din favn

La dine sorger hvile i havet
Et sted mellom nord og sor

Vinden synger de evige toner
En saga a forelle

ok, i don't feel my hands anymore

Thanks for teh lyrics! *copies to computer* Thats good because I sometimes have trouble understanding the lyrics and stuff.

I am so jealous of you Onyrika

I had posted this before evboard crushed so I think no one has seen it !The pics in the booklet are real?Are from their country or they are just pc-made?Cause they are soooooo beautiful!!The scenery is completely awesome!!

oops, i don't know that one... i think the pics are taken in studio... but if u look for Norway pics it's similar

anyway, i think (well, i'm pretty sure, but not 100% ) leaves' eyes has got the studio & everything in Germany... i remember Liv telling she lives in there

If you look closely, you can tell that the band have been super-imposed onto the backgrounds in the CD leaflet. In the one where Liv is lying down, her body just doesn't quite fit into the picture properly. Not that it matters, the pics are still mucho groovy.

Vinland Saga is great, I enjoyed it much more than Lovelorn, which I didn't think was possible. Solemn Sea and The Thorn are my faves.

Using the idea of Ali from the WT thread, I tried making my own coolio bg for an icon. I'm too chicken to do anything bigger! O_O Anyway, this is what I came up with:



It took me too long to make that icon. -_-;;
