Sword by side
Eyes open wide
Warm blood flows
Onto the snow
Red battlefield
Drunk on warriors' blood
His mortal wounds
Deep and cruel
He caught the eye
Watcher from the sky
Visions of beauty
Swoop close by
Once again grasps his sword
Arises tall, strong and pure
As he was once before
And will be forever more
Three colours joining the sky to the ground
And journeying beyond the horns resound
This is where brave warriors go
When a sharp blade takes its toll
Stars burn bright
Round the gapping moon
Into the night
Strides the dead hero
Bridge ahead, blue, green and red
This must be the path of the glorious dead
Now ascending, rising high
To the realm beyond the sky
Winds blow cold and the blackness screams
And in the distance a light is seen
Greeted by sights, wondrous splendour
"Asgard is mighty indeed," said the warrior
… Said the warrior
Valhalla's gates before his eyes
Tall and gold and open wide
Familiar figure stood within
Welcomed, by Odin
"Welcome into my hall
feast and fight forevermore"
Laughter echoes around
As the horns resound
Fallen brothers live again
Sword-death is not the end!!
"Welcome into my hall
feast and fight forevermore"
