The fingers of winter they bring in the cold
The wind carries death, just as foretold
The ice falls like needles with no end in sight
We cannot endure try as we might
Woe are we, crossing the sea
Just like our fathers before
Out of my hand the snow took the land
And we're gone forever more
Look not behind what you had there is gone
Onward we sail for a new dawn
Iceland awaits and we have to prepare
No one can know what awaits us there
Woe are we, crossing the sea
Just like our fathers before
Out of my hand the snow took the land
And we're gone forever more
Sail us south towards new land
Sail us south to life
Woe are we, crossing the sea
Just like our fathers before
Out of my hand the snow took the land
And we're gone forever more
