========= The Royal Guard LYRICS =========

From the frozen north they came
Fought for founding father’s claim
It was then, their tale, began

Trace their roots from 16 strong
By the king where they belong

En tid
Av Krig

Wherever he goes, near or far, they are close
For the King of Sweden they lay down their lives

For the Swedish crown they stand
By the king, at his command
500 years for the fatherland
Marching across the belt
Crushing blow at Narva dealt
Livgardet our Royal Guard

Sworn protectors of the throne
Royal doctrine set in stone
For the crown, you shall give your life

By traditions from the past
Swedish soldiers stand steadfast

I frid
Och i strid

And if one should fall, yet another, heeds the call
For king and for country they lay down their lives

För Sverige i tiden
Dit konungen går
De gör vad som synes omöjligt, vad än framtiden spår

Still for the crown they stand
By the king, at his command
500 years for the fatherland
Marching across the belt
Crushing blow at Narva dealt
Livgardet our Royal Guard

========= Historic Fact ==========

One of the oldest military regiments in the world, the Swedish Royal Guard (Livgardet) was formed in 1521 by the Swedish King Gustav Vasa. For the past 500 years, they have been evolving with the times and have served various kings and queens. They are still active to this day.

    Plot twist: The king is super tiny and the crown is covering him.
  • Sabaton: "We're making another song in Swedish!" English Sabaton fans: "OK, but make the same song in English too" Sabaton: "OK, but we're still going to have part of it in Swedish so you learn it"
  • @mimlee2747
    Hello sabaton band: I’m from mainland China. I played and quoted your song as a work of "How I Understand Patriotic Values" for an exhibition in our school’s music discussion today. As a result, I assimilated a large group of students into spiritual Swedish "This is simply Sweden's national treasure metal band" This is the evaluation of our class teacher
  • @dannelagen
    I am Danish. And this song makes me think: "Wow, the last battle we fought with that country; is over 200 years ago..."
  • @muzycznekurioza
    Sabaton: Fans, wanna go with us at war? next day Joakim: Who are those people with guns in my garden? Pär: Why there is a battleship in that lake?
  • @Nordern
    Really have to respect how good Sabaton has become to translate the song, and make it work!
  • @MrToubrouk
    I love that moment in 0:57 where everybody's hearing the enemy approaching but Par take the time to end his prayer. Feels like an echo to the song "The Carolean's Prayer". Love it.
  • sabaton has the F** best music videos in the world, they dont just tell a story, they tell history itself in the most beautiful way possible

    English Version - Epic battle with kung-fu welding badass Swedish Royal Guards Swedish Version - A heated debate over a map that makes me very hungry
  • @wastwhite2565
    Swedish Version: Gaining Calories. 🍗 English Version: Burning Calories. 🔥
  • @Kratos-uy1gd
    With music like this I’m surprised Sweden hasn’t reunited its empire
  • @jacobzindel987
    It's probsbly safe to say that, at this point, the average foreign Sabaton fan is more patriotic about Sweden than the average Swede is. Lol
  • @lioneye101
    If anyone wants to know the history. This is the "Skirmish at Bender" after the Battle of Poltava where Charles XII of Sweden and his Royal guard defended themselves against an onslaught by the Ottoman Empire. 40 Swedish Soldiers defended themselves against many 100s of Ottoman Turks
  • Turks: "How can he be this strong?" Joakim's knee: "First time?"
  • @lucasromero3812
    This must have been the most epic thing I saw in my entire life
  • The one thing which annoys me the most about songs by Sabaton is that they end
  • @notachilean7942
    If anyone wandering about when a battle like this happened, after the defeat at Poltava, Carolus rex took refuge in the Otoman empire. A small revolt broke out against the long stay of the Swedish King, so he had to flee the city.

    ‘I’m Indy Nydell and this, is how to ignite a major world conflict!’

    Every time Sabaton makes a song about certain groups of soldiers or people, they always manage to make me feel the camaraderie, loyalty, courage and trust that they must have had for each other. Royal Guardsmen, Caroleans, 12th Army, 77th, Swiss Guard, Chasseurs Ardennais, Devil Dogs, all of them. Thank you again for bringing the stories of all these different people to life through your amazing music, fellow Scandinavians! 👍
