Beckoning his fellows to him A man unknown roamed the lands Sol began the long ascent As men rode for the strands Swathed in cloaks, heathens Gallantly went forth to die Thirty score against the christians That day of heathen pride Lusting for blood they were They spilt it over the ground Revenging their fallen ones As the great war horn did sound They fought with all their might To be rid of christian men Far outnumbered, so they fell To Walhall then they went Christians came for heathen bane Who all died for honor and for fame Christians came, tyranny reigned Only eighty christians did remain Men from lands afar came Whilst drawing their honor nigh The Norsemen galloped onward Letting forth a heathen cry Thunderous did they strike Like lightning through the rain Wuotan guiding their swords Many christian men were slain So great did the they fight Many bodies littered the ground No remorse was even felt As the heathens razed them down The christians were no longer alive They slayed them all but one He was sent back to his home To warn what they had done Christians came for heathen bane Who all fought for honor and for fame Christians came, all were slain Only a single christian did remain That night, as Solen shied the land A hearty dinner was to them prepared A celebratory feast on ship and sand For fallen allies the victory was shared Noble men once considered tykes Now mounted upon their horses shod Looked to the sky, upraised their pikes And shouted to the gods... Oh Wuotan, great Wuotan Hail to thee, the mighty One-Eyed God Oh Wuotan, hail Wuotan Forever heathen pride will live on
