🎼 Song Lyrics
[Verse 1]
With the thunder of hooves, and the clangor of steel
We ride from the highlands, our fate to seal

[Pre-Chorus]
Through valleys wide, under the age-old sky
Our banners fly high, as we march to die

[Chorus]
For glory we ride, with our ancestors by our side
In the heart of the storm, the Highland Guard's pride
Steel meets flesh, and the brave may fall
But the echo of our voices will outlast us all

[Verse 2]
The call of the pipes, with tales of ancient might
As we forge our way, through the forest's twilight
Armed with axes clutched, with valor in our tune
Marching to the cadence of the battle's drumming rune

[Pre-Chorus]
Across the old mountains, under watchful skies of lore
Towards the hallowed fields, where our fates are forged in war

[Chorus]
For glory we ride, with our ancestors by our side
In the heart of the storm, the Highland Guard's pride
Steel meets flesh, and the brave may fall
But the echo of our voices will outlast us all

[Bridge]
Under the raven banner, a sea of tartans flows
Through smoke and fire, the tide of battle grows
Swords gleam like stars in the twilight's gloom
Each stroke a verse in the saga's loom

[Verse 3]
The clash of our swords writes the tales of old
In the whisper of leaves, in the winter’s cold
We stand where heroes fell, and their spirits dwell
In the hallowed silence, after the battle’s yell

[Chorus]
For glory we ride, with our ancestors by our side
In the heart of the storm, the Highland Guard's pride
Steel meets flesh, and the brave may fall
But the echo of our voices will outlast us all

[Outro]
So raise your horns to the sky, let the mead freely pour
Sing the songs of the slain, who shall die no more
For as long as the highlands cast shadows at night
The Highland Guard will march, in the old gods’ light
