Sabaton - Swedish Pagans (Lyrics English & Deutsch)

Not only were they ruthless pirates, but also rural settlers and merchants, who built up a wide, almost pan-European long-distance trading network, with great achievements in the fields of art, craft, shipbuilding and shipping. At turn of the millennium Vikings under Leif Eriksson reached the east coast of North America (Vinland). CAUTION! I won’t tolerate any racist, discriminatory or in any other form inappropriate comments! This song neither glorifies war, nor National Socialism, but should be considered as a historical work. “No, we don’t glorify anything, we just tell stories about things that have happened.“ (Rikard Sundén, Sabaton) Please support Sabaton and purchase their current album Coat of Arms. ---------- Gegen Ende des 8.
