Blood Court

The sun it rises to a day filled with hope

For Charles offered to confer terms of peace

So to Verden our warriors came unarmed

Trusting his words so the killing may cease

In came the heroes of Sünthe-Lo

Only Wittekind was missing

He did not trust the promise of peace

Granted by a Frankish King

Betrayal

Betrayal

Unarmed they were butchered

While priests chant their tunes

The best of a people lie murdered and ruined

Such is the love of the priests and their lord

But history books will remember Blood Court

There lie the fallen for justice we cry

The priests say a prayer and shrug with a sigh

The king calls it justice, his word is the law

But it was just a slaughter for all that we saw

Wittekind, the only hope left for freedom

Wittekind, the last one to avenge the treason

All the power of the Saxons unite

Wittekind, you must fight
