Who came riding to Whiterun from ole Rorikstead
(pause)
And the braggart did swagger and brandish his blade,
As he told of bold battles and gold he had made.
(longer pause)
But then he went quiet, did Ragnar the Red,
When he met the shield-maiden Matilda, who said;
(shorter pause)
"Oh, you talk and you lie and you drink all our mead,
Now I think it's high time that you lie down and bleed!"
(pause)
And so then came clashing and slashing of steel,
As the brave lass Matilda charged in, full of zeal.
(pause)
And the braggart named Ragnar was boastful no more-
When his ugly red head rolled around on the floor!

We drink to our youth, to days come and gone. For the age of aggression is just about done. We'll drive out the Stormcloaks and restore what we own. With our blood and our steel we'll take back our home. Down with Ulfric the killer of kings. On the day of your death we'll drink and we'll sing. We're the children of Skyrim, and we fight all our lives. And when Sovngarde beckons, every one of us dies! But this land is ours and we'll see it wiped clean. Of the scourge that has sullied our hopes and our dreams. Long live the Empire! Long live the Emperor!
