I cannot remember my name
As I lay on the battlefield
And hear the war drums
I died here with honor today
Warrior queen with my sword by my side

I can't remember the names of these men
As they cover my body with furs
Now I am floating up over the land
Leaving my body below

Now they will carry me home
Through the mountains and groves
To the land of my birth
They will make me a funeral pyre
Where my bones turn to dust
And my flesh turns to fire

Then to Valhalla I'll go
To gaze on the face
Of my king and my sons
There will be a feast laid for me
Warrior queen with a Valkyrie shield

I watch them carry me over the lands
On through the fields and the farms
People are waiting to watch me pass by
Look now our queens is coming home

Now they will carry me home
Through the mountains and groves
To the land of my birth
They will make me a funeral pyre
Where my bones turn to dust
And my flesh turns to fire

A very long journey I've come
To the lakes and the streams
And the lands that I love
Where as a child I roamed
Warrior queen at fourteen years old

I watched them carry me over the lands
On through the fields and the farms
People were waiting to watch me pass by
'Look now our queen has come home.'

Now they have carried me home
Through the mountains and groves
To the land of my birth
Set flame to my funeral pyre
And my bones are now dust
And my flesh gone to fire
