Amon Amarth - Runes To My Memory Lyrics
We rode the rivers of the Eastern trail,
Deep in the land of the Rus'.
Following the wind in our sails,
And the rhythm of the oars.
No shelter in this hostile land,
Ready to fight and defend
Our ship 'til the bitter end.
We came under attack,
I received a deadly wound.
A spear was forced into my back
Still I fought on.
When I am dead,
Lay me in a mound.
Runes carved to my memory
Now here I lay on the river bank
A long, long way from home
Life is pouring out of me
Soon I will be gone.
I tilt my head to the side
And think of those back home
I see the river rushing by
Like blood runs from my wound.
Here I lie on wet sand,
I will not make it home.
I clinch my sword in my hand,
Say farewell to those I love.
When I am dead,
Lay me in a mound.
Place my weapons by my side
For the journey to Hall up high
When I am dead,
Lay me in a mound.
Raise a stone for all to see
Runes carved to my memory

Amon Amarth Runes To My Memory Comments
This should become background music in Skyrim when Civil War quest if Join Stormcloak 👌😅😂
This whole album is completely underrated.
2:31"I kill power ranger"
ᚾᛁᛋ!
Anyone that says this video is unwatchable is too young to remember the days of realplayer.
I miss old amon amarth, this is more brutal.
Same, it's so generic now
amon amarth cuando era chevere!
please upload in best quality
Vikings must've been fierce swordsman .
My favorite Amon Amarth song
This may sound insane but it's a fact. Years ago while studying Odinism I discovered Amon Amarth continued my new belief as I grew older I noticed as we all do when we age there were wrinkles on my face. Across my face was a large X the Rune for G. Gifu which meaning is gift. So I began thinking what exactly did the God's gift me... The mark is still here today...
Great song
Zu Borges gefällt das.
Who gives a fuck about the quality it's a damn good song \m/
My beard is growing right now💪🏻
13yrs?!? oh the nostalgia...I was in high school when I bought this album...
This was recorded by actual vikings. You can tell because of the artifacting.
Haven’t seen this in ages, forgot how absolutely bitchin this video is
I remember seeing this on Headbangers Ball back in like 2006. Good times.
Full HD ultra 4k (OFFICIAL)
Brasileiro ai da um up
2:00 gets me everytime
Poor Russians just wanted to protect their land from Norse raiders. This song still makes you feel they are the bad guys. :)
I need to hear at least one Amon Amarth track in The Vikings.... Come on History Channel..... !!!!!
The first 30 seconds of this video is how Vikings opened portals to other dimensions.
Such an underrated band. What a masterpiece of melodic, Black Metal.
Viking Death Metal.
*Melodic Death Metal
This is Grindmetal!
This is great. Lord Zethrune....
💪😍
It is an amaizing sadly death metal song
I really prefer wardruna over this guys, the so called viking metal sucks.....
I was driving while listening to this, my car is now a viking ship.
poor quality this ages on youtube damn!!!
synchronized windmill will live forever as a meme
We rode the rivers of the Eastern trail,

Constantly on guard.

Actually came here looking for the "hair tornado" comment. no succes :(
Pff fucking dislikers
Dear Odin, we will stand our ground and fight together notorious and brave.
I remember my senior year recorded this on a vhs tape and played it everyday before school.
Hail, Amon Amarth
May Odin's gaze, Never be off you..
To Valhalla we go
These guys are just as good live!!!
Loke's bad luck is on me! Today they are going to play in Istanbul and I'm in Poland.. on the 4th of August I'm flying to Istanbul from Poland and on the same day they are going to play in Poland.........
I am waiting in istanbul you amon amarth. It's time to meet on 29.07.2017.
He sees his own death. The omens show him. Yet he faces it already knowing his fate
This was my first Amon Amarth song and needless to say I'm still hooked 🤘🏻
Anyone came here after the gif on Facebook lol
IT IS ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amon Amarth, still the kings of synchronized hair swinging.
ive been so far and so much compared to others ...so much lost so many lives hurt because of my actions. my greatest apologies especially to my father rory
Metal up your ass!
I love this song raise the horns motherfuckers
Full bronze armor for 40g, Runescape to my memory.
M Dizzle runescape was fine until they fucked the leveling and combat system all up
When they are live and they play this song it is amazing I love it
Perfact just perfact :-D
Why is this video garbage quality?
It was uploaded a decade ago?
I can't believe it is ten years since this came out.
Yeah, I feel super old ...
Kristian Moore I feel old now haha
That fucking intro.... holy shit
there is high end in this video that is kind of irritating
there is high end in this video that is kind of irritating
headbanging masters!!!
slipknot
lol..wut?
FatGuys Piano No Slayer
(Dethklok).
In flames
toplu headbang'inizi yiyem hfhydgh
It's hard to nod and smile while head banging at the same time.
Well now we know the inspiration for I whip my hair back and forth
2006, omg. I was a kid. 14 years
I wasn't much older. 16 at the time.
There is literally nothing more metal than metalhead vikings.
In the name of Odin i command you to upload a better quality video!!!
lol! no shit! at least clean up that horrible audio!
Needs better video, and better tuning
Necro Kempo spspss
fucking hilarious
240p ._. pls fix it
In mute, it looks like a shampoo commercial.
whaaaaaahahahahahahahahaaa, thx m8 i needed a laugh today cheers
and on the scull pic they say - this is how it looks with other shampoos
Why would you mute a music video??
usa Amon amarth y notaras la diferencia ;) xD
HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
This song is for me :P
Funny how everyone cries about the 240p. I watched the video back in 2006 and it's still as amazing. (:
I would love to avenged shitfold try to come to these Vikings and play their weakass motley crue rip off pop metal in front of them. Guaranteed that they would probably end up with a axe and a viking sword shoved up their ass and down their throats. Death to all poser metal bands.
One of my favorite Amon Amarth songs.
(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
To all of you with no viking ancestors, these lyrics may apply to you:
♪♩
When I am bored
I lay on the couch
Turning on my TV Screen
Netflix comes to memory!
♫♪
+Asger Fra 2G1A LMAOOOOOO....hahahahahahahaha
Stfu lol this is so cringe
netflix and kill
UPDATE THIS VIDEO FOR GOD'S SAKE, it's unwatchable at 240p.
you for odins sake right
RIGHT FUCKING ON
The opening riff was amazing
This seems like a sampoo commercial
Would Pirating this song be considered Vikining it in this case?
More windmill !!
They would make great ceiling fans.
Funniest thing I read all week
my house is now a vikings ship
Metal Bade really needs to update the resolution of this video, 240p????!!!
The resolution was taken and put into the quality of the song.
@***** That's alot of words for "You're right"
These guys need to take up bodybuilding. That skinny-fat thing doesn't work with the viking imagery.
@CryingZombie666
My what interesting language skills
@kemal hurlov well said
Lol at skinny-fat. 😂
They got destroyed by pussies with a cross and a book ? Not so tough then...
Take the manowar route you mean?
Our beloved Norwegian rat Cernunnos lost his battle with pneumonia today. He was the most caring and affectionate rat of our 25+. He was the first at the door; we keep them open at all times, with love in his eyes and lots of licking and affection for myself and all. I only name my pets after Cernunnos when they are the sweetest and most loving. We raised him from birth, he was almost 2 years of age my wife held him abreast all night and day, I placed my boar’s tusk with him to give him strength, which helped him live until 12:30 PM today Eastern Standard time. He was once a giant and mighty rat, yet as gentle and affectionate. He will be missed eternally; we will give him a pyre funeral, and bury him in a mound, with a stone with runes carved to his memory on one side, and Celtic Ogham on the other. I havenae felt this way about an animal friend since my dog Murphy passed in 2002. Let the ravens carry you home to the underworld gently….. Tha gaol agam ort Cernunnos! Jeg elsker deg Cernunnos!!!
Aonghus William MacCready
To those who have liked my eulogy in any way and homage to the memory of the rat Cernunnos, I thank you, Slainte' to you all, Slainte' to all of your beloved animal friends....
Aonghus
I am sorry for your loss
it's ok! he is in valhalla now! :D
@Otman Abraham lothbrok I appreciate that, everyone who has liked and commented, hes been gone for about a year now, along with several other close to my heart rats, you need a strong heart to own rats, 3 years att the very most...
+Aonghus MacCready My dearest respects brother!
I wish these guys were a little more Viking.
what the.. more viking?
you don't know anything.
So like super viking?
Doesnt go any further than this man hahah

I will miss you in my country USA but see you in WACKEN baby!
Dont care about quality. Total amazing!

I cant be the only person who secretly wishes they were a Viking...
240p is true metal!
actually youtube is from 2005 '-'
WTF i always tought that youtube was made in 2007 and the video was uploaded in 2006 :o
umm.. no he isn't. In the video where he talks about the songs in "Surter Rising" he says and i quote, ".. as most of you know, I am an athiest." or at least something along those lines.
Well, it has been uploaded 7 years ago.
