Long ago over mountains cold Two ravens flew high above The streams ran on, the forests grew As a village lay below The young ones sat around the flames And listened to stories of old A time of great men and fame And so the tales were told As the sun arose, bewitching the night sky The day's first dawning was nigh Upon the horizon, rainswept and tousled men Waiting for the call to fight Atop their steeds on a mountain covered in snow Waiting for the call at light Thunder cracked above; The ruby sky glowed Then came the call to die Now we feast and now we dine To celebrate times gone by Of warriors and journeys We dance with mead and wine Battles past and brave men gone Fell on they field where they trod Valkyrjur carried them To the hall of one-eyed god A full retinue leading down the slopes Horses racing to war Into the enemy, they clashed in sight of Sol The storm filled their spirits with Þórr Midnoon shown down upon their bloody flesh Two ravens watching above; They soared Gales of wind blew, the bloodstained grasses swayed Battle would commence... no more Long ago over mountains cold Two ravens flew high above The streams ran on, the forests grew As a village lay below The young ones sat around the flames And listened to stories of old A time of great men and fame And so the tales were told "Cattle die, kinsmen die And so one dies one's self The one thing now that never dies The fame of a dead man's deeds" Now we feast and now we dine To celebrate times gone by Of warriors and journeys We dance with mead and wine Battles past and brave men gone Fell on they field where they trod Valkyrjur carried them To the hall of one-eyed god
