I will tell you a legend Listen closely, understand Once upon a time, a princess Of this I am certain Solveig was her given name Beloved Sun Warrior of fame Beautiful and proud at dawn All sorrow gone when she shone Banished princess, lost soul Banished princess, reborn star Banished princess, fearless warrior Banished princess, jewel of love In lands of ice and endless war Invasions, power, clash and lore Gold bound upon her brow Her royalty none could disavow Yet she was cursed by fate Not by some wicked witch's hate But for being human, frail and flawed A child of life, earthly and raw Banished princess, lost soul Banished princess, reborn star Banished princess, fearless warrior Banished princess, jewel of love Blind rage and hatred boiled inside In crimson blood that surged with pride So lived she until she crossed To the other side, where wrath was lost Lost within Hel's blinding veil Years trapped in filth and mental jail Desires and refuse of the mind Only damned souls left behind Banished princess, lost soul Banished princess, reborn star Banished princess, fearless warrior Banished princess, jewel of love There suffering is daily bread Torment is the air you breathe instead Armies of Draugr roam and cry No place to run, no way to fly Condemned within her inner core Cursed by herself forevermore Countless hours thrown away Chains on hands that could not sway Banished princess, lost soul Banished princess, reborn star Banished princess, fearless warrior Banished princess, jewel of love Her skin now stained with ash and tears Dried by time and endless fears Sulfur breath, aggressive and wild Each shadow hides an inner trial But destiny proved far too strong Between chance and death she was drawn Savage violence, fierce and dire Struck the interplanetary fire Banished princess, lost soul Banished princess, reborn star Banished princess, fearless warrior Banished princess, jewel of love Yet she saw beyond the veil A fallen Sun, a glowing trail A hand she offered without fear An embrace sincere and clear And in that ancient, sacred spell Within the warmth where kindness dwells The bitter curse was torn apart By the gentle power of contact Banished princess, lost soul Banished princess, reborn star Banished princess, fearless warrior Banished princess, jewel of love A ruby forged of condensed love Was set upon her brow above She saw the whole, she felt the truth Her sealed heart broke into youth Redeemed by burning inner fire Demonic now is her attire Yet the flame that lives inside Glows red and tender, dignified Banished princess, lost soul Banished princess, reborn star Banished princess, fearless warrior Banished princess, jewel of love The pain of darkness still resounds But now it sings with teaching sounds Rage is but illusion's snare A tempting jewel, false and rare Hal, hal, hal! Hail the shield-maiden bright Sweet and true in spirit and sight In the night she gleams in flame Shining ruby-love proclaimed Banished princess, lost soul Banished princess, reborn star Banished princess, fearless warrior Banished princess, jewel of love Banished princess, lost soul Banished princess, reborn star Banished princess, fearless warrior Banished princess, jewel of love
