Written by：Todd Rundgren

I am a Viking of some note
我是声名远扬的维京勇士
Knut's my name and here I float
克努特之名 随浪漂泊于此
Out on the sea in a great big boat
乘巨舟破浪在无垠海域
And I'm the one who beats the drum in time
我击鼓定调 掌舵前行方向
To stroke the oars that drive our Galleons on
号令船桨齐舞 战船破浪向前
And while we rowed we had our song
我们划桨时同声高歌
And we had our God and it may seem odd
信仰作伴虽看似执拗
But at least there was a cause
但至少心怀炽热理想
Caught a wind and we upped the sail
扬帆起航 乘风破浪
Lost two ships when it turned to a gale
风暴骤起 两船沉没
Down went a third when she rammed on a whale
第三艘船 撞上鲸鱼
Though we despaired we could not fail
虽陷绝境 绝不认输
And through it all we never faltered
历经磨难 矢志不渝
Late at night I lay on the deck
夜深人静 甲板独卧
Wondering why I risk my neck
扪心自问 为何冒险
Picture myself in a sinking wreck
想象自己 随船沉没
And down I'm going not knowing why
我不断下沉 却不知为何
I just can't quite recall the reason why
只是记不清当初的缘由
It's such a drag to carry on
继续前行是如此沉重
But there was a cause there was a cause
但曾有一个使命 一个使命
'Till there was a reason reason
直到找到存在的意义
If you like I'll be your Viking
若你愿意 我将成为你的维京战士
Sit you down to a Nordic meal
邀你共进北欧盛宴
Give you strength that you might wield
赐予你征战的力量
A Viking sword and a Viking shield
维京长剑配圆盾
And off we'll sail in mighty ships of yore
乘远古巨舰破浪启航
Perhaps we shouldn't let our hands get sore
或许该让双手免于酸痛
We need someone to pull the oars
需有人共执船桨
And to do the chores
分担琐碎杂务
So we need a cause so we need a reason reason why
为此需寻得征途的意义
Erik is here
