Unfurl the banner
Language: English  after the Norwegian (Bokmål)
Unfurl the banner in warlike manner! Hearts high are beating and eager for fame. On, striving ever, bravely endeavor! Glorious the cause, that our hearts sets a-flame. Brethren united, troth we have plighted, that for our freedom we'll fight with might. Hearts overflowing, spirits are glowing; steadfast unflinching we gladly fight.
From the Sinding score.
