The Song’s Lyrics
[Intro/Chorus] Raise your horns into the air
There is plenty ale to share
All are welcome, take a chair
And sing a song loud and strong
Men of war and men of care
Maidens fierce and maidens fair
Raise your horns into the air
And sing a song loud and proud and strong
[Post-Chorus] Skål! Skål!
Sing loud and strong
Skål! Skål!
A toast and a thundering song
[Verse] At the end of the eve, we’ll be welcome and warm
By a great roaring fire, our voices a storm
In the warm timber halls, we will keep out the cold
As we bellow and belt out these tunes full of soul
[Chorus] Raise your horns into the air
There is plenty ale to share
All are welcome, take a chair
And sing a song loud and strong
Men of war and men of care
Maidens fierce and maidens fair
Raise your horns into the air
And sing a song loud and proud and strong
[Post-Chorus] Skål! Skål!
Sing loud and strong
Skål! Skål!
A toast and a thundering song
[Bridge] We’re welcome and warm
Our voices a storm
Our voices, our voices a storm
[Chorus] Raise your horns into the air
There is plenty ale to share
All are welcome, take a chair
And sing a song loud and strong
Men of war and men of care
Maidens fierce and maidens fair
Raise your horns into the air
And sing a song loud and proud and strong
[Post-Chorus] Skål! Skål!
Sing loud and strong
Skål! Skål!
A toast and a thundering song
