Lyrics & Translation

[English]

oh my sweet summer child what do you

know about fear fear is for the winter

when the Sun hides for years

in that darkness the White Walkers came

for the first time does it trace all the

White Walkers the madman sees what he

sees

[Music]

I've been disturbing reports what kind

of reports god I don't want to believe

[Music]

we'll be capturing wildlings more of

the fleeing south

all come in then

on a when and on a home when we fight it

[Music]

it's coming you are the kings hand and

the king is a fool and doomed unless you

save him this is no longer a game soon

you will cross the Narrow Sea and take

back your Father's throne when they

write the history of my reign sweet

sister they will say it began today I

want them dead

you'll dishonor yourself forever do you

think it's all know that's keeping the

peace it's fear fear and blood everyone

who isn't us is an enemy

no one's afraid yet we've come to a

dangerous place

I'll kill him let's talk the king when

you play the game of Thrones you win or

you die
