I once heard a song,
A tale of the sea,
Carolingian swords,
Raised to the sky...
Heavy these oars,
Long ships of wrought iron,
Steel and flint,
Will make for a good fire...
Hana-Yaya...
We chant
Hana-Yaya
Hail Adiona,
Safe home we will be...
Hana-Yaya
We chant,
Hana-Yaya...
Hail Adiona,
Safe home we will be...
Bring forth the flames,
That touch the waters edge,
But we are not afraid,
We fight to the death...
We're strong as our swords,
Spirit of the boar,
Our shields together,
Our hearts made of
War.
Hana-Yaya...
We chant,
Hana-Yaya
Hail Adiona,
Safe home we will be...
So bring forth the flames,
That touch the waters edge,
But we are not afraid,
We fight to the death...
Hana-Yaya...
We chant hana-yaya...
Hail Adiona,
Safe home we will be...
hana-ana- ana-yaya-haya...
