Out on the fields where the lonely horizons lies
So cold to the touch, every valley is made of ice Fairest of gods, he was forced to be put on trials Facing his end staring in to the tricksters eyes Metal and steel, fire and ice Was thrown at his naked brow They all were repelled no matter the might Nothing could harm him now God of light so wise and strong The fairest of them all His downfall was a mistletoe Now hope is bound to fall Loki’s plan so evil and so vicious in its way Now only tears can save the worlds From Ragnarök’s dismay In search for the truth he came up with a grand disguise One conversation that lit up his evil eyes For Loki, the envy was too much for him to bear A secret revealed of a flower with skills so rare Metal and steel, fire and ice Was thrown at his naked brow They all were repelled no matter the might Nothing could harm him now God of light so wise and strong The fairest of them all His downfall was a mistletoe Now hope is bound to fall Loki’s plan so evil and so vicious in its way Now only tears can save the worlds From Ragnarök’s dismay 02. Son Of Odin
I am the son of Odin
I bring lighting from the sky With my hammer Mjölnir I was born to die Brother of deception Leaves me with no choice I want to scream my heart out But I have lost my voice Thursday bears my name Shameless I’m still the same All father of wind and rain Thunder I am your bane I believe in honour And my fist made of steel Loki is my brother, he has no sex appeal Fire, blood and magic Leaves me with a thirst I want to ride to battle But I have lost my horse Thursday bears my name Shameless I’m still the same All father of wind and rain Thunder I am your bane Our warriors, we come riding from beyond Oh the bravest few we look for you Who are worthy of hearing our song We will carry every broken heart and bone Fall asleep and by Odin be reborn Thursday bears my name Shameless I’m still the same All father of wind and rain Thunder I am your bane 03. Prophecy Of Ragnarök
Prophecy of Ragnarök, twilight of the gods
No escaping destiny when Balder’s gone Snow and ice will freeze the world, mountains crack Fenrir’s fetters is no more, the sky is turning black Prophecy of Ragnarök, legend of our death Time to be corroded by the serpent’s breath Riding through the wastelands, there’s fire everywhere The gods won’t be around to hear our final prayer Axe-time, sword-time – gods go under Wind-time, wolf-time – death to all Axe-time, sword-time – shields are sundered Wind-time, wolf-time – worlds will fall Titans of justice – fearless we stand Odin, all father are we blessed by your hand? Together we rise, together we fight We ride in to battle and in to the night The giants are raging, the gods meet their fate The heaves crack open, thunder fall through the land Guardian of bifrost is blowing his horn We ride into battle and into the storm Brothers they e fighting together, side by side Valkyries assembling as Aegir brings the tide In Odin’s hall we gather, champions from the past Warriors of Valhalla – we will die last! Everything’s devoured by the rushing of waves The bottom of the ocean will be our graves Mountains clash together, under Yggdrasil Crumbling to pieces and sink into the sea Axe-time, sword-time – gods go under Wind-time, wolf-time – death to all Axe-time, sword-time – shields are sundered Wind-time, wolf-time – worlds will fall Titans of justice – fearless we stand Odin, all father are we blessed by your hand? Together we rise, together we fight We ride in to battle and in to the night The giants are raging, the gods meet their fate The heaves crack open, thunder fall through the land Guardian of bifrost is blowing his horn We ride into battle and into the storm A perfect darkness follows all A perfect silence to end the war Oh Ginnungagap, oh bottomless abyss It’s the ultimate nothingness where death is bliss Warriors of Valhalla Hear my final words This is our purpose This is our end 04. Defenders Of Valhalla
They can take away our lives
But they van never take our metal This is a tale of warriors Questing far and wide A tale so true and glorious It will turn the tide Those who have seen us Either fled or died And those who tell you otherwise Know that they have lied We’re siblings of the north Eight we’re standing strong Adventuring across the realms To write this awesome song On our quest for might and glory Foes will fall Filling up our inventory A potion of strength for all We are warriors of the world In our hearts we know what’s right We will stand up for the weak And bring the flames of courage into the fight Champions Defenders of Valhall, with glory we ride Together, side by side We strike down on evil with all our might Guardians of light With hammers of justice we will win the fight Brothers and sisters unite We will rise Nidhögg the dragon Gnawing at our tree Defenders of Valhalla We will banish thee Sture the storm born Quick as one can be Catching every squirrel And crush them with his knee Agnar has fallen He fought like a beast If we all shall die today Tomorrow we will feast Snorre, son of Sturla The greatest skald he be Telling tales of ancients The future he could see Champions Defenders of Valhall, with glory we ride Together, side by side We strike down on evil with all our might Guardians of light With hammers of justice we will win the fight Brothers and sisters unite We will rise 05. Concerning Norns
There stands an ash called Yggdrasil
A might tree, showered in white hail From there come the dews that fall in the valleys It stands evergreen above Urd’s well From there come maidens, very wise Three from the lake that lies beneath the pole One is called Urd, she’s the weaver of faith Another Verdande who’s forever present Skuld is the third, the future lives within her Together they carve into the tree The lives and destinies of children, men and gods To them, the all-knowing, we pay our dues this day As we bring you our hymn, Yggdrasil 06. Yggdrasil
Rising up from a day of plunder
The ale of yesterday has gone down under The battlefield awaits my soul to Odin – for whom I wait Thor guide me through my battles Lead me home to Asgard The victorious will rise to the glory of the gods Rise above the mountains Light a fire in the sky For the blood is running still From the roots of Yggdrasil Rise above the mountains Light a fire in the sky Carry me to the hill To the top of Yggdrasil In the hour of final judgement all father, lead my way When the fire of war reign I will watch my brothers fall Our names will be long forgotten we live on forever The victorious will rise to the glory of the gods Rise above the mountains Light a fire in the sky For the blood is running still From the roots of Yggdrasil Rise above the mountains Light a fire in the sky Carry me to the hill To the top of Yggdrasil In the dust I swore my hatred From seeing unborn children die The mothers weeping wakes my sword for vengeance I thirst for blood I ride into infinity and as if all I rise in Asgard The victorious will rise to the glory of the gods Rise above the mountains Light a fire in the sky For the blood is running still From the roots of Yggdrasil Rise above the mountains Light a fire in the sky Carry me to the hill To the top of Yggdrasil 07. Tyr
One arm, one fist
One battle in the night So pale, so stiff Defeated by Tyr and his might The raging thunder strikes May gods be with us My sword of doom is wet Around me – blood, tears and death My god of justice - Revenge in you name Guide me to victory - Victory and pain Remember the fallen - The wicked brave Make it your day For Tuesday It’s Tuesday It’s Tyr My arm, his feast Great jaws of fire So brute, this beast Blood he desires In moonlight Fenrir cries I stole his freedom Now Gleipner holds him tight Made out of beard, spit and breath My god of justice - Revenge in you name Guide me to victory - Victory and pain Remember the fallen - The wicked brave Make it your day For Tuesday It’s Tuesday It’s Tyr 08. Siblings Of Metal
Gods of war
May your hammer be mighty! Fire, blood and steel The wrath of the gods is all we feel Metal that is real Thunder and lightning strikes As we ride in to the night Hammers and gods of might We’re chasing freedom with ultimate steel An epic journey begins Across the wastelands, over the seven seas We are the brothers of metal Raves are crossing the sky When a Viking is questing arrows fly Fighting until we die Hammer and sword held high We’re spreading fear with our battle cry Reaching for the sky On our way to victory we fight for certain death Forever we are one and we are glorious We’re chasing freedom with ultimate steel An epic journey begins Across the wastelands, over the seven seas We are the brothers of metal 09. Gods Of War
So now we have gathered, with mead in our veins
We drink and we gamble we’re screaming your names Filling our horns for the gods and their rein We’re warriors of Valhalla, we’ll rise again The tavern is shaking, the barrels are drained We’re brothers of metal We’re fucking, we’re fighting, we bleed And we’re never gonna fail before the sons of Odin All hail gods of war – war All hail gods of war – hail my brothers All hail gods of war – war All hail gods of war – brothers of metal As brothers arrive they are joining the feast All brought from the battle by the Valkyries And Saerimnir feeds every man, every beast In life we would suffer, but here we are pleased So drink brother, drink for the living deceased We’re brothers of metal We’re fucking, we’re fighting, we bleed And we’re never gonna fail before the sons of Odin All hail gods of war – war All hail gods of war – hail my brothers All hail gods of war – war All hail gods of war – brothers of metal 10. Freya
There’s a goddess, love is her mark
She breathes life into all She’s the master of death of lust and war And her beauty known wide and far Queen of the Valkyries The fiercest of cavalries – for death, a legion Into the night she rides As the northern lights With her band of sisters She will conquer all All her enemies will fall Within the darkness, comfort find When in sorrow your heart bound In her tears of red gold Her lover, gone Through night and through dawn Missing, far at sea In a feathered robe She ventures forth, her beloved to set free Gods of Alfheim awaits a sign of the highborn child Gone for years, searching for her one and only one As the fields, plagued by death rot away Found at last, lost at sea Forever he will haunt her dreams A tear of gold is shed by the priestess so true With her band of sisters She will conquer all All her enemies will fall Within the darkness, comfort find When in sorrow your heart bound In her tears of red gold Her lover, gone Through night and through dawn Missing, far at sea In a feathered robe She ventures forth, her beloved to set free 11. The Mead Song
This is a song about death, mead and a goat
The Einherjars final preparation for Ragnarök Welcome to the land of no hangovers! If you are ruthless, in battle so true If chosen in death there is room for you too By an army of Valkyries, taken away To the hall of the fallen A feast awaits Mead – another Into the mist the she-goat will us lead From Heidrun’s teat the endless stream of mead Drink brother drink there’s no need to think We fight until we rise again, we drink until we fall We kill each other every day ‘til the final battle call We’re an army of warriors, vicious and strong in the hall of the fallen The feast goes on Mead – another Into the mist the she-goat will us lead From Heidrun’s teat the endless stream of mead Pour me another and you’ll be my brothers When you are thirsty and hungry for fights There’s no need to worry – there’s mead left and right We’re an army so wasted, no mead is too strong in the hall of the fallen Hear our song Mead – another Into the mist the she-goat will us lead From Heidrun’s teat the endless stream of mead 12. Sleipnir
Loki, the greatest magician of all
He’s on a mission, a giant to stall He seduces, disguised as a mare And carries out Sleipnir, his womb he would tear He’s quicker than quicksand and faster than all He still has no stable, he lives in a hall Over the mountains and over the seas Swifter than time, he moves like a breeze Faster than lightning he rides Over the mountain so high Swiftly he flies over land over sea All father’s pony takes the lead For he is the ultimate breed And Sleipnir is his name He carries all father from his might hall From battle to battle, he’s stronger than all Like the wind he rides to the north Eight legs of fire venturing fourth A slippery charger, no one is his match A god among horses – he strikes and attacks Hoofs made of steel, like war drums so loud Run Sleipnir, run, show us the meaning of haste Faster than lightning he rides Over the mountain so high Swiftly he flies over land over sea All father’s pony takes the lead For he is the ultimate breed And Sleipnir is his name 13. Fire Blood And Steel
We are the sons of Odin
Fire, blood and steel Kings of heavy metal Fire, blood and steel We’re brave, we raid, we’re mad men Brothers of heavy metal Guardians of war On the battlefield we are but one Side by side, blood by blood Dual-wield, armour so strong Crushing the enemy down to the ground Every man, woman, child and unborn Hear my roar, feel my wrath Fuck you all, we will prevail We will splinter your skulls Into toothpicks an grains We will fuck you up Cause we’re brothers of metal We are the sons of Odin Fire, blood and steel Kings of heavy metal Fire, blood and steel We’re brave, we raid, we’re mad men Brothers of heavy metal Guardians of war On your deathbed you’ll cry out in pain Steal your steel, stole your steel Swing your axe, swing every sword In my eyes there’s no fear to be found Burning down everything in our path No regrets, no remorse Our steel will never get cold For raging and raiding will never grow old We are the sons of Odin Fire, blood and steel Kings of heavy metal Fire, blood and steel We’re brave, we raid, we’re mad men Brothers of heavy metal Guardians of war 14.
