A time of religion and war legends tell the tale of a lion
This beast in the shape of a man with a dream to rule sea and land

And all those who stand in his way die by God and victorious arms
With the righteous that follows him south once more set ashore to war

Legends have taught battles fought this lion has no fear at heart
Lion come forth come from the north, come from the north

Gustavus Adolphus, Libera et impera
Acerbus et ingens, Augusta per augusta

A storm over Europe unleashed dawn of war a trail of destruction
The power of Rome won't prevail, see the Catholics shiver and shake

The future of warfare unveiled showed the way that we still walk today
Der Löwe aus Mitternacht comes once more he is here for war

Stories of old truth unfold control over Europe he holds
Freedom he'll bring lion and king, lion and king

Gustavus Adolphus, Libera et impera
Acerbus et ingens, Augusta per augusta

Gustavus Adolphus go forth libera impera (Gustavus Adolphus Libera et impera)
Acerbus et ingens go forth libera impera (Acerbus et ingens Augusta per augusta)

Mighty eagle rule alone
Liberator claim the throne
Lion from the northern land
Take the scepter from its hand
Mighty eagle rule alone
Liberator claim the throne
Lion from the northern land
Take the scepter from its hand
(Oh, oh, oh, you lion from the north, oh, you lion from the north)
Mighty eagle rule alone
Liberator claim the throne
Lion from the northern land
Take the scepter from its hand

Legends have taught battles fought this lion has no fear at heart
Lion come forth, come from the north, come from the north

Gustavus Adolphus, Libera et impera
Acerbus et ingens, Augusta per augusta

Gustavus Adolphus go forth libera impera (Gustavus Adolphus Libera et impera)
Acerbus et ingens go forth libera impera (Acerbus et ingens Augusta per augusta)
