862 was the year
Sailing under the flag
Of Rurik spreading fear
Novgorod was their stronghold called
The lands around they subdue
Blonde warriors cunning
Mighty and true
[Chorus:]
The rivers they rule
Warriors to the core
The Rus they are called
Standing proud and tall
Here their word is the law
The Rus they are called
Swjatoslav their present king
His names's like thunder on the plain
He conquered the bulgars
And chasars by sword and flame
[Chorus:]
They rule the rivers to Miklagard
And to pass we must pay
A mighty kingdom
To last for many a day
From the lands of Sweden they came 862 was the year Sailing under the flag Of Rurik spreading fear Novgorod was their stronghold called The lands around they subdue Blonde warriors cunning Mighty and true [Chorus:] The rivers they rule Warriors to the core The Rus they are called Standing proud and tall Here their word is the law The Rus they are called Swjatoslav their present king His names's like thunder on the plain He conquered the bulgars And chasars by sword and flame [Chorus:] They rule the rivers to Miklagard And to pass we must pay A mighty kingdom To last for many a day Explain Request ×
