A Viking Horn Triskelion













When the working week is done
and offices and factories close
a sudden change o'ertakes my son
At weekends he's a viking

With linen clothes and leather boots
and hand made shield and helmet
he holds true to his nordic roots
At weekends he's a viking

When he was wed to his lovely víf
he gained another father
Then we took on a hieroglyph
because our son's a Viking

a viking horn triskelion
is father Odin's symbol
Inscribed for ever on our arms
because our son's a Viking
