In Odin's Court

"And Io, do I see my father

And Io, do I see my mother

And my sisters and my brothers

And the line of my people,

Back to the beginning...

And Io, they do call me,

In the halls of Valhalla

Where the brave may live forever!"

From death's embrace I awaken

Clutching the sword my life had taken;

Roofs thatched with gold

Songs of warriors old

In Odin's court

My eyes behold splendor untold!

What be this place?

What maiden brought my sould herein?

These are the halls

Of glorious Valhalla!

Step forth ye hammerheart,

Blessed champion of the Gods!

Heimdall will guard it

Vidar will welcome

In Odin's court our Einherjer brethren!

Come o beloved of the Raven,

Feast on flesh and mead;

Forever and all time

'Till Ragnarok arrives!

These are the halls

Of mighty Valhalla!

Heimdall will guard it

Vidar will welcome

In Odin's court

In Odin's court

I return to the ancient tree;

What was, shall forever be

Every nche resounds eternally

Warlike triumphant song

There in Odin's court!
