The Second Grief Of Hlín

Theudho


The Yggdrasil shakes 
The old tree moans 
Fenrir breaks his chains 
Fear strikes you all 
From the realm of Hel 
Released from his bonds 
Garm howls loudly 
The wolf will jump 
The time has come 
To meet our fate 

What of the Ǽsir 
What of the Alfar? 
Jötunheim groans 
The Ǽsir take counsel 

Hymir rides from the east 
and raises his shield 
Jörmungand writhes 
The serpent beats 
The icecold waves 
Loki brings us doom 

A ship from the east 
Muspell's men are coming 
The monster's brood 
Comes with the wolf 
Surt travels from the south 
with the burning flame 
dead tread the road to Hel 
The sky splits open 

The second grief of Hlin 
now comes about 
When Wuotan fights the wolf 
Before the falls 
Widar comes to advance 
against the wolf 
He stabs his sword 
Through the heart 
His father is avenged
