English text
The hardy Norseman's house, of yore,
Was on the foaming wave!
And there he gathered bright renown,
The bravest of the brave!
Oh! ne'er should we forget our sires,
Wherever we may be!
They bravely won a gallant name,
And ruled the stormy sea.
What though our power be weaker now
Than it was wont to be,
When boldly forth our fathers sailed,
And conquered Normandie.
We still may sing their deeds of fame,
In thrilling harmony;
For they did win a gallant name,
And ruled the stormy sea.
