Immigrant Song
Led Zeppelin · Definitive Collection Of Mini - Lp Replicas [2008]
Ah, ah
We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow
Hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new land
To fight the horde, sing and cry
Valhalla, I am coming
On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore
Ah, ah
We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow
How soft your fields so green
Can whisper tales of gore
Of how we calmed the tides of war
We are young overlords
On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore
So now you'd better stop
And rebuild all your ruins
For peace and trust can win the day
Despite of all your losing
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow
Hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new land
To fight the horde, sing and cry
Valhalla, I am coming
On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore
Ah, ah
We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow
How soft your fields so green
Can whisper tales of gore
Of how we calmed the tides of war
We are young overlords
On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore
So now you'd better stop
And rebuild all your ruins
For peace and trust can win the day
Despite of all your losing
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song" stands as a defining anthem of hard rock, blending bluesy roots with the band's signature heavy distortion. Released in 1970, the track exemplifies the group's ability to fuse traditional American blues with British rock energy, creating a sound that would influence countless artists for decades. The song's aggressive guitar work and driving rhythm established it as an early staple of the genre, often cited alongside tracks like "Kashmir" and "Stairway to Heaven" as essential listening for fans of classic rock. Its enduring popularity reflects the band's mastery of songwriting and their role in shaping the musical landscape of the early 1970s.
