Original lyrics
The Age of Oppression
We drink to our youth, for the days come and gone.
For the age of oppression is now nearly done.
We'll drive out the Empire from this land that we own.
With our blood and our steel we'll take back our home.
All hail to Ulfric! You are the High King!
In your great honor we drink and we 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!
All hail to Ulfric! You are the High King!
In your great honor we drink and we sing.
We're the children of Skyrim, and we fight all our lives.
And when Sovngarde beckons, every one of us dies!
We drink to our youth, to the days come and gone.
For the age of oppression is now nearly done.

The Age o Oppressioun
We drink tae oor youthheid, for the days cam and gane
For the age o oppressioun is nou nearlins daen.
We will drive oot the Empire frae laund that we awn.
Wi oor bluid and oor steel we’ll tak back oor hame.
Aw hailse tae Ulfric! Ye are the Heich Keeng!
In yer muckle honour we drink and we sing.
We’re the bairns o Skyrim, and we fecht aw oor lifes.
And whan Sovngarde wyses, ilk ane o us dees!
But this laund is oors and we’ll see it dicht clean
O the scourge that haes suddelt oor howps and our dreams!
Aw hailse tae Ulfric! Ye are the Heich Keeng!
In yer muckle honour we drink and we sing.
We’re the bairns o Skyrim, and we fect aw oor lifes.
And what Sovngarde wyses, ilk ane o us dees!
We drink tae oor youthheid, for the days cam and gane
For the age o oppressioun is nou nearlins daen.

About translator
The Age of Oppression is known to be sung by almost every bard in Skyrim. It's a pro-Stormcloak song that is typically sung in Stormcloak controlled cities.
The Age of Oppression and The Age of Aggression are variants of one song. It isn't known which of the two was written first but the tune, with loyalty appropriate lyrics, is quite popular on both sides of the war.
Ulfric Stormcloak can rarely be heard mumbling these lyrics when he is sleeping.
