In Norse mythology, Valhalla (from Old Norse Valhöll "hall of the slain") is a majestic, enormous hall located in Asgard, ruled over by the god Odin. Chosen by Odin, half of those that die in combat travel to Valhalla upon death, led by valkyries, while the other half go to the goddess Freyja's field Fólkvangr. In Valhalla, the dead join the masses of those who have died in combat known as Einherjar, as well as various legendary Germanic heroes and kings, as they prepare to aid Odin during the events of Ragnarök. Before the hall stands the golden tree Glasir, and the hall's ceiling is thatched with golden shields. Various creatures live around Valhalla, such as the stag Eikþyrnir and the goat Heiðrún, both described as standing atop Valhalla and consuming the foliage of the tree Læraðr.
Valhalla is attested in the Poetic Edda, compiled in the 13th century from earlier traditional sources, the Prose Edda, written in the 13th century by Snorri Sturluson, Heimskringla, also written in the 13th century by Snorri Sturluson, and in stanzas of an anonymous 10th century poem commemorating the death of a Eric Bloodaxe known as Eiríksmál as compiled in Fagrskinna. Valhalla has inspired various works of art, publication titles, popular culture references, and has become a term synonymous with a martial (or otherwise) hall of the chosen dead.
Blind Guardian is a German power metal band formed in the mid-1980s in Krefeld, West Germany. They are often credited as one of the seminal and most influential bands in the power metal and speed metal subgenres. Blind Guardian is a part of the German heavy metal scene that emerged in the mid-1980s.
The band's lyrics, written by vocalist Hansi Kürsch, are inspired by the fiction of fantasy authors such as J. R. R. Tolkien, Michael Moorcock, Robert Jordan and George R. R. Martin as well as traditional legends and epics. Over the years, a running theme has developed personifying the band members as travelling bards, leading some fans to refer to the band affectionately as "The Bards".
Blind Guardian was formed in 1984 in Krefeld, Germany, by Hansi Kürsch (vocals, bass) and Andre Olbrich (guitar) under the name Lucifer's Heritage. The band first released two demos in 1985 and 1986, despite undergoing chaotic lineup changes: Markus Dörk (guitar) and Thomen Stauch (drums) were replaced by Christof Theißen and Hans-Peter Frey, respectively. Finally, in 1987, Marcus Siepen joined and Thomen came back to form the lineup which would stay consistent for the next 18 years.
Eldrick Tont "Tiger" Woods (born December 30, 1975) is an American professional golfer whose achievements to date rank him among the most successful golfers of all time. Formerly the World No. 1, he is the highest-paid professional athlete in the world, having earned an estimated US$90.5 million from winnings and endorsements in 2010.
Woods turned professional in 1996, and by April 1997 he had already won his first major, the 1997 Masters. He first reached the number one position in the world rankings in June 1997. Through the 2000s, Woods was the dominant force in golf, spending 264 weeks from August 1999 to September 2004 and 281 weeks from June 2005 to October 2010 as world number one. From December 2009 to early April 2010, Woods took leave from professional golf to focus on his marriage after he admitted infidelity. His multiple infidelities were revealed by several different women, through many worldwide media sources. This was followed by a loss of form, and his ranking gradually fell to a low of #58 in November 2011. He snapped a career-long winless streak of 107 weeks when he captured the Chevron World Challenge in December 2011. As of April 8, 2012, he is ranked #8.
Heaven Shall Burn is a German heavy metal band from Saalfeld, formed in 1996. They combine an aggressive metal sound with lyrics that show a militant support of anti-racism and fighting social injustice. All members of the band are vegan.
Heaven Shall Burn was formed in Autumn 1996, under the name Consense. With the recording of its second demo in early 1997, the band changed its name to Heaven Shall Burn. The name is taken from a Marduk album titled Heaven Shall Burn... When We Are Gathered. In an interview, the band said, "It's not that we're huge Marduk fans, but we liked the name. It sounds a bit provoking and so people ask us again and again for the meaning behind our name. It has been like that since the very beginning. We use the term heaven as a metaphor for some kind of a fake paradise that people create in their heads. Some people close their eyes and don't see the truth surrounding them. So this kind of fake heaven should burn. Some people might think that our name is an anti-religious statement, but it isn't."
Valhalla,
Valhalla
Pick up your sword
Pick up your sword
And get your ass on to the battle field
This hell on earth
That you call your life
We'll snuff it out
And you're gonna die
We come from the north
We come from the ice
We live dangerously
And very short lives
We fight day by day
Sailing the seas
We're natural born slayers
We live by the sword
And die by the sword
We're never afraid
And to drink with the gods
To be singing their songs
I raise my cup in valhalla
To feast in their halls
And laugh with them all
I raise my cup in valhalla
Valhalla
You live by the sword
You die by the sword
The hammer of Thor
Beating you down
The thunder crashing
Through your door
With the gods by our side
We follow the stars
As we're sailing into
This holy war
We come from the north
We come from the ice
We live dangerously
And very short lives
We fight day by day
Sailing the seas
We're natural born slayers
We live by the sword
And die by the sword
We're never afraid
And to drink with the gods
To be singing their songs
I raise my cup in valhalla
To feast in their halls
And laugh with them all
I raise my cup in valhalla
Valhalla
We live by the sword
And die by the sword
Valhalla
Valhalla
Valhalla
We come from the north
We come from the ice
We live dangerously
And very short lives
We fight day by day
Sailing the seas
We're natural born slayers
We live by the sword
And die by the sword
We're never afraid
And to drink with the gods
To be singing their songs
I raise my cup in valhalla
To feast in their halls
And laugh with them all
A sultry haze hangs in the air
A lightning storm cuts through the sky
Thunder, the master, calling for the clouds
Thunder, your master, summons you to this place
Boldly tread this fearless path
Don't fear the giant's wrath
Over the mountains, the sun rises up
A castle of gold shines through the clouds
The gods awaken out of their dreams
Crossing the valley to the rainbow bridge
Valhalla, Valhalla, Valhalla, Valhalla
Shrouded from the pale cold night
In the east, you'll see its blinding light
From dusk to dawn, in peace and serenity
Follow the king and dwell with me
Boldly tread this fearless path
Don't fear the giant's wrath
Over the mountains, the sun rises up
A castle of gold shines through the clouds
The gods awaken out of their dreams
Crossing the valley to the rainbow bridge
Valhalla, Valhalla, Valhalla, Valhalla
Over the mountains, the sun rises up
A castle of gold shines through the clouds
The gods awaken out of their dreams
Crossing the valley to the rainbow bridge
Leading us on, to the land of Eternity
Riding the cold cold winds of Valhalla
The Kingdom of Odin is the Kingdom of Gods
Where only souls of the brave may rest in peace
But someone among them had the skill of deceit
And raised the hand that would open the road to Hell
CHORUS
When the winds of Valhalla run cold
Be sure that the blood will start to flow
When the winds of Valhalla run cold
Valhalla
The ring has been broken and a soul must be saved
Among the bravest of men, who rides to Hell
The longships are sailing and the chariots ride
And yes the anger of Thor will serve you well
CHORUS
Raise your hands
Reach and Valhalla will save your soul
Raise your eyes
And Odin will lead us on
They say that history repeats itself
Upon the year of the seventh Century
Well nobody knows no you never can tell
So you'd better run now and hide away
God of Thunder
Who crack the sky
Swing your Hammer
Way up high
In chariot of gold
Ride across the clouds
The black storm is unfold
Burning mist is but a shroud
Seeds and honey
Milk and blood
A Sacrifice
To Thunder God
Laid in ship of Oak
On final sail to fate
Steel is at side
Drifting to the open Gates of
Valhalla
Shields of gold
Valhalla
Great warriors hall
I swing my sword in the wind
I feel the powers all within
Valhalla
Valhalla
God of Thunder
Lightning rain
The Winds of Glory
Whispers your name
Pounding pounding
Of hooves and wheels
Forks of lightning
At your heels
Sword of steel
Held up high
Lightning strikes
From blackened skies
Fallen heroes
In Battle slain
Awaits my arrival
At the gates of
Valhalla
Shields of gold
Valhalla
Great warriors hall
I raise my fist to the Air
In the creed of powers and glory swear
I swing my sword in the wind
I feel the powers all within
I raise my fist to the Air
In the creed of powers and glory swear
Valhalla the gods await me
Open wide thy gates embrace me.
Great hall of the battle slain
With sword in hand.
All those who stand on shore
Raise high your hands to bid a last
Farewell to the viking land.
Death€™s chilling wind blows through my hair
I€™m now immortal, I am there
I take my place by Odin€™s side
Eternal army in the sky.
I point my hatchet to the wind
I guard the gates and all within
Hear my sword sing as I ride across the sky
Sworn by the sacred blood of Odin onward ride.
Valhalla the gods await me
Open wide thy gates embrace me
Great hall of the battle slain
With sword in hand.
Behold the kingdom of the kings
Books of spells and magic rings
Endless knowledge, endless time
I scream the final battle cry.
(Chorus)
Yellow Heaven
World is yellow
Freedom, oh yeah
Feel your sorrow
(Verse 1)
5:35 and I'm living senseless
Just another homie picking on the defenceless
Don't request yet, nothing really to mention
Lookin through the mirror and I'm making a censure
Whoa, black people in the mall grease
Came around the corner and she caused me to freeze up
Ease up, watch how the world could tease us, ease us
But only G.O.D can please us
Hey, got my ride and my Momma's too
Show me how to roll without breakin the rules
Payin my dues, MC's droppin out choose
Decides to get with lyrical facts, don't stop
Whoa, black people dyin to shop
Everything is fine when you're losing your mind
I'm like a black alley cat, freestyle batter-up
Doesn't get better than that, is that a gat in the back?
(Chorus)
(Verse 2)
And the Valkyrie's blood runs red through the halls of the dead
And the warrior's blood runs red through the hearts of the dead
And the Valkyrie's blood runs red through the halls of the dead
And the life you're been lookin for in the world that you live 2x
In the name, we were all born in the flame
Not the same, but under the moon on the desert plane
We roam, home, take the ?coast ghost?
I saw with my naked eye, way to close now
I was the son of a man on a mission
Who worked with his hands and brought him the former land
In the inter-land, swingin the mic like an axe
With a fear in the atmosphere, layin down tracks
High in the sky where eagles fly
Morgray, the dark enters the throne
Open wide the gate, friend
The King will come
Blow the horn and praise the highest Lord who'll bring the dawn
He's the new God in the palace of steel
Persuade the fate of everyone
The chaos can begin, let it in
So many centuries, so many Gods
We were the prisoners of our own fantasy
But now we are marching against these Gods
I'm the wizard, I will change it all
Valhalla, deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me
Valhalla, deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me
Valhalla, deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me
Oh, Valhalla
Valhalla, deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me
Valhalla, deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me
Valhalla, deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me
Oh, Valhalla
Magic is in me, I'm the lost magic man
Never found what I was looking for
Now I found but it's lost, the fortress burns
Broken my heart, I leave this world
All Gods are gone
So many centuries, so many Gods
We were the prisoners of our own fantasy
But then we had nothing to lead our life
No, no, we can't live without Gods
Valhalla, deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me
Valhalla, deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me
Valhalla
Oh, Valhalla
Valhalla, deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me
Valhalla, deliverance
There is a place
where every man who falls
in battle surely will go
and in this place
lives a God
who is their Lord
one of knowledge
who surely knows
Eyes are burning brightly
shining on into the night
heads are falling
valkyries calling
back the men to fight
for The Terrifier
Magic Mystifier
preparation for victory
Mighty Oh! VALHALLA
they're coming Home
to VALHALLA
Each day the valiant
armies of the past
would fight outside the hall
then in the evening
the vanquished would rise up
with the victors
and feast one and all
Written on the runes
the many tales of men of old
ancient kings who ruled the land
a thousand years ago
prayed to The Terrifier
Magic Mystifier
for knowledge and Victory
Mighty Oh! VALHALLA
they're coming home to VALHALLA
Come the final battle
Odinn charges on his steed
Fenrir's foe is thrusting home
but it was not to be
now The Terrifier
Magic Mystifier
Vanquished but he will live on
Mighty Oh! In VALHALLA
He's living on In VALHALLA
VALHALLA!
Valhalla's where I'm waiting. I watch with loving eyes from far away,
It's where I need you. In my lullabies of sorrow you remain.
Valhalla's where you're coming, cause here this burning madness had to die.
My heart screams come to me, but here I can say nothingâ¦but goodbye.
If you're just another soldier, then battle elsewhere please.
But if not tear me from this earth, and take me to your seas.
Cause it's difficult to feel now, and I ache in every bone.
A twisted fate has left us both alone.
Valhalla's where I'm waiting, my devil and my angel too.
For they are joined and show themselves through you.
You lie beneath my skin now, you wear my piece of metal close,
Just as close as I could ever come to touch you there
If you are just a soldier, then battle elsewhere please.
But if not tear me from this earth, and take me to your seas.
'Cause it's difficult to breathe now, can't you hear it in my tone?
The life in me has hardened into stone.
Until we reach Valhalla, where I'll be your dear Persephone,
Look to shallow heavens and that's where I'll be.
Here I tempt the gallows, cause there this love would be an art.
Yellow heaven
World is yellow
Freedom, oh yeah
Feel your sorrow
5:35 and I'm living senseless
Just another homie picking on the defenseless
Don't request yet, nothing really to mention
Lookin' through the mirror and I'm making a censure
Whoa, black people in the mall grease
Came around the corner and she caused me to freeze up
Ease up, watch how the world could tease us, ease us
But only G O D could please us
Hey, got me a ride and my mama too
Show me how to roll without breakin' the rules
Payin' my dues, MC's droppin' out, choose
Decides to get with lyrical facts, don't stop

I'm like a black alley cat, freestyle batter-up
Doesn't get better than that, is that gat in the back?
Yellow heaven

The Valkyrie's blood runs red through the halls of the dead
Oh, the warrior's blood runs red through the halls of the dead
Yeah, the Valkyrie's blood runs red through the halls of the dead
And the life you've been lookin' for in the world that you live
Yeah, the life you've been lookin' for in the world that you live
In the name, we were all born in a flame
Not the same but under the moon
On a desert plane, we roam
Home, hey, coast, ghost
I saw with my naked eye, way too close now
I was the son of a man on a mission
Who worked with his hands and brought him the former land
In the inter-land, swingin' the mic like an ax
With a fear in the atmosphere, layin' down tracks

The Awakening
[M/L: Jevo]
Long time ago into the deep caves
Under the Mountains Of Hope
The Gods of Thunder
Gathered to create a perfect being
Hammerers and forgers
Worked together day after day
Night after night
Only they knew the secrets of steel
Finally a mighty creature was born
Made of forged iron, fire and steel
He was the Master of all the elements
He had the gift of immortality
Thousands of descendants
Spread all over the Universe
All his sons were made of flesh and bones
The flame still burns
Within their Hearts of Metal
They will never die
The Gates of Valhalla await.
Starflaming Heart Of Ural

Shadow Of The King (Part I)
[M/L: Mikel]
Battle has called me I am waiting
With no fear left in my heart
Dead flesh´s smell is what I`m feeling
In a rough fight tonight in the dark
By power of gods I am fighting
To drive evilmen back to hell
Like dragon of hate they are roaring
With fire they scream fight and yell
Riding the days
And sailing the nights
All I have seen
Is my victory
But now is the time
To look through the past
When all bravemen die
And black is the sky
I will fight my war forever
I will fight my war ´cause I am the one I´m the king
My enemies (are) here just to haunt me
Too much blood spilled once again
A demonized arrow behind me
That shows me the way to the end
All I see now
Is the red of my blood
So far from home
And I`m so alone
My heart bleeds for free
And I`m on my knees
Waiting for death
I take my last breath
I´ll be gone not lost forever
My son will come to fight ´cause he is the one he`ll be king
Rohirrim
[M/L:Ivan. V]
Fly and take the light of the sunrise
over the top of the hills.
Ride till the twilight come to us
Never rest, never retreat and never loose.
Hard as iron ; valiant stong and noble like a horse
cause on a shaddle I was born
Listen to the horn
calling us to war;
answer the horn call.
Ride across the hills,
share out the wind
with the Rohirrim riders.
Fight all day and night
This the life
of the Rohirrim riders.
One with my clan snd one with my horse
The fury of my sword
that will fall over my enemies heads.
Feel the thunderstep of the defenders of The Mark,
the wall of spears when we attack
and the power of the braves.
Listen to the horn
calling us to war.
Listen to the horn call
Warlike is my blood, thick and heavy
I can feel it flowing through my veins.
In my throat a battle hymn, in my hand a sword of steel
that my enemy will taste : all of them have sealed their fate
On the battlefield they 'll die.
Here comes the earthquake. The ground will shake
with the charge of the Rohirrim riders.
Ride Of Norsemen
[M/L: Jevo]
We sailed the North Sea up and down
Spreading norman piracy
Searching for conquest and for loot
Reached the Mediterranean sea
Reckless and daring vikings
Pirates of northern lands
Searching for gold and treasures
Wild men of war
Side by side - by means of hard axe blows
One by one - they fell to the ground
Side by side - with swords strokes and arrows
One by one - to die suffering were they bound
Founding reigns in Irish lands
Up the Seine we took Paris
The wrath of Odin did we bring
Burning towns from France to Greece
By drakkars crossed the oceans
Boarding warships and boats
Inland we raped and plundered
Thirsty for blood
Side by side - with power of Norsemen
One by one - their ships did we burn
Side by side - we sailed up the rivers
One by one - destroying the towns we found
Revenge (Shadow Of The King Part III)
[M/L: Mikel]
Rain`s falling down I see the mist begins to rise
I`m coming back to spew my fire
A yearning vengance feeds my hunger every night
Just one desire burns inside my head
Closer is coming closer
A demon`s rising by my hand ready to die
Stronger I`m feeling stronger
Courageous power down from hell up to the sky
Shadowking`s still alive
Shadowking is the one
From the fire of death has returned
At the end of the light
Face to face we will fight
A new kingdom a new freedom call
Revenge has begun
Years full of silence anger misery and pain
An evil nightmare cold of darkness
A new beginning comes a place we all can go
One hope of freedom just before the storm
Higher please take me higher
I feel the thunder`s power running through my veins
Closer it`s coming close to me
I feel the battle`s fury hate`s my only friend
I`ve come back reborn by the light of the day
I`ve walked among the dead but now I`m free again
Here to bring freedom and justice for all who fight by my side
for one kingdom
King....will you follow me?
Aclaimming freedom a new better world
Strong...I will fight for you
All toghether we`ll break down the wall
Shadowking`s still alive
Shadowking is the one
From the fire of death has returned
At the end of the light
Face to face we will fight
A new kingdom a new freedom call
Revenge has begun
Resurrection (Shadow Of The King Part II)
[M/L: Jevo]
Voice of death is calling
I'm running through the dark
Cold is blood of power
Cold is in my heart
Heaven's waiting for me
Not ready to die
Cross the line before fear highs
Gods I will fight searching for resurrection
The end of the dream hurts like a silent scream
Now, I will fight, revenge's my own light
Here I stand, sorrow land, evil hate 'til the end
Sorrow marches through the
Mighty hands of god
Now I pray for my return
Defend what I believe
It's my only way of life
Defending my son my own life
Resurrection gives me strength to war
To bring me home, to carry on
Resurrection heals me more and more
To fight in life
To live in shadows every night
Requiem To The Welkin
The Sky Is Torn By The Winds
Their Blowings Sow The Death
The Reason Is Severed With
The Steel Whip Of Infernal Cold
Summoning To The Demon Of Blood
The Blackness Turns To Evilness
Growing Through The Flesh
Blood Rains Down Onto The Face
The Silent Voice Of Reaper
Pierces The Soundless Night
The Black Shadow Of Evil Is Drunk
With The Blood Of The Wind
The Music Of Darkened Valleys
Flows Like The Soundless Song
The Moon Awakes Soon
Over The Peaks Of Snowy Rocks
The Infernal Nocturne
Sounds Amidst The Silent Stones
The Spirits Of Sky Shall Play
The Requiem To The Welkin
The Dying But Mortal Sky
Is Crushed With The Steel Of The Wind...
The Dwellers Of Black Night...
The Steel Lash Of The Wind
Rebellion
[M/L: Jevo]
So many years working hard for a dream
Sweating blood, facing the tempest
Through Hell and high water we never rest
Until we reach our aim.
Days of misfortune and days full of joy
We won't surrender, we won't give in
Short of money but plenty of balls
We'll be on the front!
We were born to play Metal
And for Metal we'll die
One for all and all for one we cry
Break the spell, dethrone the tyrant
Now is time to scream it loud
And the day will come when victory is ours
The Rebellion will break out
Hey, bloody bastard, why don't you get out
Eat your own shit and forget us
Sooner or later you will understand
That we're not kidding at all.
We were born to play Metal
And for Metal we'll die
One for all and all for one we cry
Break the spell, dethrone the tyrant
Now is time to scream it loud
And the day will come when victory is ours
The Rebellion will break out
Raise Your Tankard
[M/L: Jevo]
Take one beer, take two beers
So you can wet your whistle
Take three beers, take four beers
Now on you cannot stop
Take five beers, take six beers
Girls look like Claudia Schiffer
Seven beers, take eight beers
The bladder's ready to blow up!
In the pub, in the tavern
At any time in your life
Everywhere in the planet
Beer will always be at your side.
Raise your mug high drinking a toast
Sing all together, go on a spree!
Raise your tankard, sober or drunk
Beer will set us free.
Take nine beers, take ten beers
The friendship's exaltation
Eleven beers, take twelve beers
You've got the clues to mend the world
Thirteen beers, fourteen beers
Tongue-tied and double vision
Fifteen beers, sixteen beers
Bumping and crawling you get home
Take some beers, drink some beers
Drink'em all, you'll feel alright
Take some beers, drink some beers
Drink'em all to see the light.
Raise your mug high drinking a toast
Sing all together, go on a spree!
Raise your tankard, sober or drunk
Beer will set us free.
Preludium
[Instrumental]
Postludium (The Wolf And The Night)
A Fang Tearing The Tough Flesh
A Claw Eclipsed With Its Shine The Moon
It Is Wolf Bleeding The Dawn
It Is Howl Ruining The Silence Of Night
The Silvershine Of Fullmoon
The Cold Eyes Are Like Glittering Steel
Fouled Trails Of Wolfish Paws
The Grey Haze Of Frosty Traceries
Per Aspera Ad Astra
[Instrumental]
No Time To Surrender
[M/L: Mikel]
Who`s going to fly when your wings lay in chains
Who`s going to run while you`re fading
Who`s going to see if you look through a blind eye
Never surrender I`ve got to survive
Truth, is a precious desire
Lies, a knife straight to your heart
Hate, an invisible madness
Open the gate and reveal what`s inside
Never give up, can`t stop fighting
No Surrender
Never look back, choose your side
Out in the cold evil voices sorround me
The beast seems to be... alive!
How can you see me if you don`t know where I hide
How can you live while they`re dying
How can you lie when the truth is behind you
It`s late to remember I`ll be ready to strike
Hopes, we are trapped in the abyss
Lost, as the darkness descends
Hate, with no breath or emotion
Beware of the tears running down from your face
Never give up, can`t stop fighting
No Surrender
Never look back, choose your side
Out in the cold evil voices sorround me
The beast seems to be... alive!
Metalopolis (Orchestral Version)
[M/L: Jevo]
Far from the place you live,
Away from the din.
There is a land of joy,
Amusement and spree.
Called Metalopolis,
The town of your dreams.
Made of green grass and trees
And clear water streams.
Rivers of sweet wine
And lakes full of beer,
Lightly clad women everywhere
Huge amplifiers placed
along the streets
to play loud metal symphonies
Come with me to a never Neverland
And you'll see
Landscapes of trees and lush.
Stay a while so we can have some fun
In this world of bliss
Metalopolis
[M/L: Jevo]
Far from the place you live,
Away from the din.
There is a land of joy,
Amusement and spree.
Called Metalopolis,
The town of your dreams.
Made of green grass and trees
And clear water streams.
Rivers of sweet wine
And lakes full of beer,
Delightful dishes everywhere.
All girls are gorgeous
Who you can romp with,
While birds chip metal melodies.
Come with me to a never Neverland
And you'll see
Landscapes of trees and lush.
Stay a while so we can have some fun
In this world of bliss
No fumes in the atmosphere,
Fresh air's what you breathe,
People are really free
And live without fear.
A place where Metal rules
And work's not allowed.
Beer is the only God
And binge is the law.
Lightly clad women
lying on the lawn.
Pleasantly basking in the sun
Huge amplifiers placed
along the streets
to play loud metal symphonies
Medieval Feast
[M: Jevo, Patxa / L: Jevo]
Now winter is gone
and a new day is born
The season of Spring
when life is reborn.
Time to harvest time of crops
Farewell to darkness and cold
and welcome to sunlight,
fertility and hope.
The solstice has come,
Mother Earth hear our call
We pay honour to you
One feast and this song.
By moonlight we have met,
this night in the heart of the forest,
to enjoy a banquet of meat.
Creatures of the night,
staring eyes in the darkness
but campfires will keep the away.
Lambs, boars and deers,
pheasants, ducks and other pieces
to roast by scalding firewood.
Women in a ring,
dance to the sound of gay melodies
while bards are singing their songs.
The horn has been blown,
it's sound flies all over the valley
the feast has already begun.
Red wine and beer,
let us drink to Gods of Iron
And the bards keep on singing their songs.
Hymn Of Victory
[M/L: Jevo]
From the guts of Metal we were born
Steel and Fire in our hearts
Proud we stand against the wind and storm
No one can stop our rage.
I see the armies of Metalians
Wielding their hammers in the air
The clash will make Earth tremble
You will hear the screams
Of Victory!
Raise high your fist
All together in a voice
United we stand, not alone
With Power and Might
We will show the World
That Heavy Metal´s here to remain.
When we march, we never step backwards
There's only Triumph or Death
Gods of War are always on our side
And Metal keep us alive
Never give in, never surrender
Our Unity and Hate make us strong
We are less in number
But they´ll never beat us down
The flame still burns!
Humans
[M/L: Jevo]
I came from the stars on a mission to find
A place for a colony somewhere to live
But the influence of humans
Wasted all hopes for my race.
Carbon dioxide is blackening your lungs
Chemical warfares, pollution we breathe
There's a leak in a nuclear station
That no one controls.
Humans - Wasting the Earth
Destroyers - Heading for Death
Time has come for this fading planet
Straight to darkness
This is the beginning of the End.
I must go back where I belong to
Far from here and
Leave this pigsty world that you call Earth.
Black tides on the oceans, all sealife is dead.
Decreasing the ozone, the greenhouse effect
Warms the crust of the Earth
Drying rivers and melting the poles.
Look at the menu you taste everyday
Uranium-full salad, pork chops with aphta,
Crazy roast beef on the grill
And fresh three-eyed fish.
Humans - Wasting the Earth
Destroyers - Heading for Death
All I see now is a cancer in this world
Your fate is sorrow and doom.
No turning back, my predictions will fulfil
There`s nothing that we can do.
Centuries ago, many centuries before your birthday
I found a planet with perfect conditions of life.
But everything was spoilt by a plague of humans
Now that my mission is done, I want to go home.
Holywar
[M/L: Jevo]
In the name of the Holy Scriptures,
The iman's calling us to war.
Tearing down the Western Countries
So many infidels will fall
We will fight
Fight this...
Holywar, for Allah I give my life
Holywar, we are not afraid to die.
Together we stand
Together we fight
The only way...Holywar.
Overthrow the Christian Devil
Mahomet's words we shall obbey
Sacrifice our lifes for the Islam
Allah awaits beyond the veil.
We will fight
Fight this...
Holywar, for Allah I give my life
Holywar, we are not afraid to die.
Together we stand
Together we fight
The only way...Holywar.
We will fight
Fight this...
Holywar, for Allah I give my life
Holywar, we are not afraid to die.
Together we stand
Together we fight
The only way...Holywar.
Guardians Of Metal (V. 2000)
[M/L: Jevo]
Riding the wind with power and might
Higher than sky
Out from the dark to enter the light
Higher they fly
They've got the balls to face the storm
To face the storm
Keeping the faith of those who believe
In power of Metal
Others betrayed but they will not leave
Never this battle
They've got the balls to carry on
To carry on
Guardians of metal, your power I feel
A blend of light beams, fire, magic and steel
Thunder and lightning will crack up the sky
The Gates of Valhalla awaits
Against those whose soul and music was sold
For fame, lust and riches
Selling themselves for pieces of gold
Like luxury bitches
While others fall they carry on
The flame still burns
Guardians of metal, your power I feel
A blend of light beam, fire, magic and steel
Thunder and lightning will crack up the sky
The Gates of Valhalla awaits
Flowers Of The Evil
Through The Steadfastness Of Centuries Growing Up
Are The Dead Stalks
Dimly Glaring In The Moonshine
Are Cold Roses
Putrid Stench Of Flowers Of Evil
Is The Fragrance Of Death
In The Silvery Shine Of Cold Thorns There Are
Bloody Streams
Like The Fingers Of Black Iron Hand
Are The Panzers Of Buds
The Cold Of Their Leaves Like The Razorblade
Cuts The Flesh
The Black Night Is Fulfilled With Silent Knell
With The Singing Of Death
With The Twittering Of Dead Phantom Birds
In The Dead Roses
Through The Steadfastness Of Centuries Growing Up
Are The Dead Stalks...
Steel Of Thorns, Ice Of Buds
Blades Of Leaves...
Those Were Inhaling The Aroma
Of Flowers Of The Evil In The Black Night
Are Consumed Forever With The Coldness
Of Lifeless Realms
Eve Of Winterdawn
[Instrumental]
Egypt
[M: Patxa, Iván, Mikel, Jevo / L: Jevo]
In a land, close to the Nile
Surrounded by desert is Egypt.
Down below, under the sand
Lie the rest of ancient kings.
Ooh, relics and gold in their graves
Ooh, better not desecrate.
Many centuries ago
Egyptian kings
were protected by the Gods
For their Glory and Peace
In the land of pyramids
I found my doom
And the curse will follow me
For all eternity
Egypt, the legend, curse of the pharaohs
Horus, Osiris, wrath of the Gods
Suffering and Sorrow, the prophecy reveals
Egypt forgive me, the curse fulfills
Tales were told that I did ignore
About maledictions and curses
Now my soul, eternally damned
Until the End of all days
Ooh, shadows appear in my dreams
Ooh, grim visions, demons of greed
Hidden traps and labyrinths
Were not enough
And I entered the vault
To appease my greed
Hieroglyphics on the wall
Signs on the stone
Maledictions shall be cast
For whom profane the tombs
Eclipse
[M/L: Ivan. V.]
"Blaze: tell me your sin."
whispers the wind.
Blind is the sun for the moonlight charm.
right to your doom;
love for the moon.
Love for the moon!.
Look at the moon in the sky,
the bright of her eyes
and the blush enlightening her face.
Hidden her nudity in gauce,
in cotton, in white:allways dazzling.
She's trapped the blaze.
Oh, my sun,long for this you will never have
sad is your bliss
for the sweetest disease
of desire's in your own.
deadly is your wound.
Maybe today'll be the night
of the light...
maybe...
Magic becoming Eclipse
when her lips settles over his lips.
Senses becoming a prize
when his look get lost in her eyes.
Weaven two threads in the loom
when the sun's hidden into the moon,
joining together in one
when the moon's laying over the sun.
Dreams Of Apocalypse
Dances Of Sanguinous Moons
The Songs Of Soundless Mouths
The Mystery Of Ancient Runes
From The Ancient Times
The Night Consumes A Day
With A Light Of A Nocturnal Star
The Black Shadow Of Hatred
Is Radiant With Pain
The Heralds Of Evil Death
Dark Shades Of Evil
Leftovers Of Empty churches
Corpses... Ashes...
The Glowing Coal Of Eyes
Thaws Down The Reason's Ice
The Diamond Of A Black Moon
Calls You Onward Beyond The Life
The Flaming Armageddon
Thrust Onto The Night
The Devil's Daughter Rides
The Bloody Stallion
As The Omen In Silence
Summoning The Demons' Horde
Crushing Down To The Dust
The Hopes Of christian pigs
Dances Of Sanguinal Moons
In The Ruins Of Great Mountains
The Axe Of War Is Speckled With
The Mystery Of Ancient Runes
The Thick Black Shadow
Thirsts For Blood Of pigs
The Night Murders The Day
With Light Of A Nocturnal Star
Towards The Unlight... On Black Wings Of Death
With A Distant Sparks Fulfilled The Dome Of Nightsky...
The Nocturnal Haze Enlightened By Moonlightwaves...
Into The Chasm Of Darkness
Belost In The Stream Of Shadows
Towards The Eternal Unlight
Losing The Taste Of Life, Fallen
Into Oblivion In The Stream Of Days...
To The Cold Of Death
Immersing Into Unbeing
Sights Of Another World Shine
Through The Silent Darkness Of Nebular Nights...
I Awake
Life's Ended, man Is Dead
Away From Light
On Black Wings Of Death - Forever
My Lifeless Sight Gazed
Beyond The Flaming Horizon
Forever Now I'm Free
From Blinkers Of Fleeting Life...
Carpathian Tales: Vlad The Impaler
[M/L: Jevo]
Son Of Dragon, Prince of terror,
Known as Draculea
Ruler Of Wallachia,
Vlad The Impaler, you're the law.
Godless and brave,
From the craddle to the grave
Hatred I see in your eyes
Son of the Devil
Your anger we fear
The unholy rider is back.
Cry revenge, renounce Christianity
Avenge your father's death
And proclaim yourself as King
Cry revenge, bring back prosperity
Slay your enemies
And Wallachia will be free.
Impaling boyars, skinning beggars
Bury them alive
20.000 rotting turkish
Forest Of The Impaled
Defend your throne
By the fierce and cruelty
Vengeance I see in your eyes.
Son of the Devil
Your anger we fear
The unholy rider is back.
Cry revenge, renounce Christianity
Avenge your father's death
And proclaim yourself as King
Cry revnge, bring back prosperity
Slay your enemies
And Wallachia will be free.
Carpathian Tales: Countess Bathory
[M/L: Jevo]
Born in Transylvannya
In the frozen Carpathian lands
Countess Elisabeth
I Surrender my soul for you
Your lesbian aunt Karla
Taught you all pleasure games
Victims yell and you smile
In an orgy of blood and lust
When night falls down
and the shadows lurk in the dark
One little girl
in a gloomy dungeon she cries.
Pleasure and pain
in your merciless game
See you in Hell
Countess Bathory
Went you insane?
Oh, my sadistic dame
See you in Hell
Countess Bathory
In league with the Devil
To find the eternal youth
Vanity drove you mad
Sacrifices for beauty lasts
Six hundred young virgins
Were slain in a crimson pool
Draining blood in a bath
Drinking blood from a golden flask
When night falls down
And the shadows lurk in the dark
One little girl
In a gloomy dungeon she cries.
Pleasure and pain
in your merciless game
See you in Hell
Countess Bathory
Went you insane?
Oh, my sadistic dame
See you in Hell
Countess Bathory
Born By Metal
[M: Iván V., Mikel / L: Iván V.]
Right, It has begun.
I can feel there's magic in the air.
Heavy Metal is here.
It's in you... It's in me.
Noise and show, fire and lights
We want it loud and we want it high.
Soul of Metal anew.
It's in me... It's in you.
Never!
Never debase what we have.
Never!
Never forget what we are
Heavy Metal!
By Metal I was born,
For Metal I will die.
Heavy Metal music is my life.
By Metal I was born,
For Metal I will die.
Nothing else but Metal in my mind.
Now I see there's Metal in the air.
Let me feel it...
Let me hear your scream...
By Metal I was born,
In Metal I will die.
Heavy metal music is my life.
By Metal I was born,
In Metal I will die.
Nothing but Metal tonight!
Bigwigs
[M/L: Jevo]
We are members of a private brotherhood.
We control the guild of rock n'roll
Radiostations, mags and record companies
Managers and friends, so we are strong.
This is the Empire of Wirepulling
In our Reign we impose the rules
You won't succeed if we don't feel like it.
Money talks I hear the call
Money talks we hear the call
When The Mafia is in control.
Bigwigs and henchmen are tripping you up
Bleeding you white to the end.
Sorry man, there's little more that we can do
Bring your sister, we will talk again.
Money tricks and fiddles, our way of life
Kiss my ass and I will give you a chance.
This is the Empire of Wirepulling
In our Reign we impose the rules
You won't succeed if we don't feel like it.
Money talks I hear the call
Money talks we hear the call
When the Mafia is in control.
Bigwigs and henchmen are tripping you up
Bleeding you white to the end.
Dark Side Of Life
[M: Jevo / L: Mikel]
There`s no place for us
There`s no way to run
We`are waiting for the future
The curse will go on
On the wings of the storm
Cold rain`s falling down
We're waiting for tomorrow
Our race will reborn
Gone with the wind
We're drowning in tears
Dark side of life
Is burning inside
But now is the time to wait for the light
Lord of the mountains
Lord of seven seas
Please hear our call
Give us force to believe
In a world in a place
With reasons to live
At the end of the rainbow`s edge
The end has begun
The moon`s turning black
We cross the line of darkness
Our soul will survive
A moment in life
With no turning back
Don`t you hear them cry?
No light shinning bright
With nothing to say
We're sealing our fate
Sadness and pain
Our hearts will remain
So strong is our faith we wait for the day
Lord of the mountains
Lord of seven seas
Please hear our call
Give us force to believe
In a world in a place
With reasons to live
At the end of the rainbow`s edge
To The Other Side
[M: Patxa, Jevo / L: Jevo]
Your time is up,
Listen to the bells, they´re tolling
The race against the Reaper no one wins.
Remember now
All those years of pain and pleasure
Thoughts and memories gone with the wind
One shiny light
Leads you through the darkness.
What is beyond
You will see.
Spread your wings and fly
Up to the rainbow
Fly and cross the Gates Of Paradise
The hands of time, they never rest
Ticking on and on...and on.
Leave all behind
You´ve got what you need,
Just one ticket to The Other Side.
No matter where,
Who you are, there´s no criteria
You know time is always passing by
One shiny light
Leads you through the darkness.
What is beyond
You will see.
Join us in the eternal sleep
Take our hand we will show you
The land of the free
Welcome to the Destiny´s End
Where your mind and your soul rest in peace.

Ural Darkness
The Reason Is Toughly Enshrouded
The Bloody Haze Hides My Sight
A Gasping Wheezing Breathe...
I Walk Away Into The Ural Woods
I Am Entailed With The Wolf's Howl
Towards The Dark Of Forest Thicket
The Deathly-Still Beauty Of Woods Draws Me
Towards The Eternal Silence Of Heathen Realm
The Bleeding Sunset Consumes The Firmament
Like A Glowing Strip Of Steel
The Day Has Failed His Everfight To Night
The Darkness Falls Upon The Ural Woods
The Reason Is Toughly Enshrouded
The Bloody Haze Hides My Sight
A Gasping Wheezing Breathe...
I Walk Away Into The Ural Woods
Being Consumed By The Ural Darkness Into The Realm Of Night
I Disappeared In The Silence Of Woods
Leaving The Filth Of Wretched World
With The Mourning Songs Of Wolves...
The Wolfish Nocturne
...And Again - Into Cold Twilight
Of Dense Ural Woods
Under Marbled Cloudy Sky
I Go Away... Away...
Lost In The Forest Marshes
I See No Sunlight
I Roam Solely Being Worn With Grey Fur
Burdened With Sorrow And Spite
And At Night Like A Shadow In Silence
I Run Forth Upon The Fresh Snow
Through The Firwooden Thicket
And The Eyes Blink In Its Dusk...
I Gaze Into Starion Sky
From Where The Lonesome Moon
Surrounded With Spectral Halo
Enlightens The Woods With Its Silversome Light
The Wind Roams In The Branches Of Trees
And Throws The Snow Off Them...
The Fur Is Silver With Frost...
And Again - The Aimless Run...
... No, Not There Where The Sun Rises On
Mornings Endawning The Woods
With The Crimson Aurora's Light
No, There's No Aim Of Mine...
The Moon Fades With The Sunrise
The Snow Sparkles Under My Paws
The Gloomy Green Forest Stands In Front Of Me
This Forest Is My Stronghold...
I Go Into Darkness Forever
Under The Dome Of Woods And Of Sky
I Go Away From The World Of humans
Into The Ural, Where I Never Roam Before...
The Outlaw
[M/L: Jevo]
Listen, I´m an outlaw
Riding to live and living to ride.
Wanted for my misdeeds
Yes, I am wanted dead or alive.
Born of a wolf and a rattlesnake
Strong whisky runs through my veins
Black is my horse, like the wings of Death
As I ride through desert plains
Ride like the wind over prairies and cannyons
The reward for my head´s so high
But I laugh, gallows will wait!
Trainraids, banks and ranches
Gold and dollars, I rob without rest.
Faster than my shadow
I'm the fastest gunman in the West.
Watch out your back when I'm on the run
For even the redskins fear me
Riots and women at the saloons
Playin' poker I always cheat
The Oak
[M/L: Jevo]
There´s a place in the wood
Where The Oak has been there through the ages
On its bark magic runes
Written by the old wizards and witches
It´s midnight and darkness surrounds us
Thick mist is here
Wolves howl at the moon, hear them crying
Bewitchment starts
The oak will show its secret
Will-o-the-wisps will light our way
Head for the path to glory
To a place where dreams come true
Witchcraft and incantation
Don´t break the spell, the charm goes on
Beyond the realms of reality
Tonight we´ll cross the gates of space and time
So dark is the night
Imps, goblins and fauns dance together
Hear the wind, don't take fright
Take this potion and you´ll live forever my friend
Bats, mushrooms and toads in a couldron
And you will fly
Black magic to invoke ancient spirits
They never died
The Fallen Angels
[M/L: Jevo]
One poster on the wall
"Heaven's for sale
We have closed down"
If there's not job above
We can ask below
And join the staff.
Just void and silence in the sky
Heaven is out of fashion, let's go to Hell
We are the ones,
The Fallen Angels
We are the souls that rove your minds
We are the ones
The Fallen Angels
Sinner or Saint you will decide.
"Sorry, my winged lads,
I give you the sack,
The best of luck"
No guardian angels now
That show you the way
To the Promised Land
No job, no future in the sky
Heaven is out of fashion, let's go to Hell
We are the ones,
The Fallen Angels
We are the souls that rove your minds
We are the ones
The Fallen Angels
Sinner or Saint you will decide.
Searching for the light
You know what is wrong
And you know what is right
Searching for the light
Choose your side
We are the ones,
The Fallen Angels
We are the souls that rove your minds
We are the ones
The Fallen Angels
Sinner or Saint you will decide.

This is life
It's a test
It's a game
Did you pass?
Play again
In the hope
That you see
Where you've been
It's the fame
It's the drugs
It's the social circle that you're not part of
It's the fear
It's everybody else, it can't be me
You're the reason I can't control myself
You are the reason I can't control myself
You're the reason I can't control myself
You are the reason I can't control myself
I can't control myself
I am done
With this war
I will spit right in the face of all you whores
In the hope
That you see
Where you've been
It's the fame
It's the drugs
It's the social circle that you're not part of
It's the fear
It's everybody else, it can't be me
You're the reason I can't control myself
You are the reason I can't control myself
You're the reason I can't control myself
You are the reason I can't control myself
It's the world
On its knees
It's the heaven that everyone seems to need
It's the light
It's the focus that you cannot seem to find
The fame
The fear
The social circle that you can't get near
The drugs
It's everybody else, it can't be you
You're the reason I can't control myself
You are the reason I can't control myself
You're the reason I can't control myself
You are the reason I can't control myself
You're the reason I can't control myself
You are the reason I can't control myself
You're the reason I can't control myself
You are the reason I can't control myself
Winds of Odin guide us
Over violent seas, the silent graveGods of thunder
Roaring, crackling power
In flashing light, they pound the night
Rising winds and howling fury
Towering shadows crashing down
As we awaken and beholdThe crystal seas and ships of goldTo the colored winds our sails ariseThe distant shore before us liesWinds of Odin whisperOver silent waves, no trace remains
We have found a new horizonFar beyond the stars that shine aboveThrashing wings valkyries rising
To the hollowed halls of Valhalla
Valhalla, Valhalla
Valhalla, Valhalla
Dein Name brennt auf des Kriegers Brust
Nur du kannst meine Wunden heilen
Mir bricht das Herz, mir brennt das Blut
tut mich der Heldentod ereilen
Nun gebt acht und lauschet diesem Reigen
erhabene Worte in Yggorasil's Zweigen
Verschlossen der den Kampfe scheut
Mag diese Verse klingen
Doch in Walhall wird man sie ewig singen
Walhalla - Walhalla - Walhalla
Schaust so stolz auf uns hernieder
kennst du den alten Wanderer
Hr wie erklingen unsere Lieder
Du kennst der letzten Wonne nicht
Oh Mensch - wirst sie nie ergrnden
In meinem Herzen glht ein Licht
Das will nicht wrmen - sich entznden
Es ist die Welt sofern von Treuen,
das meine Miene sich erbost
Das Feige fllt nun unsere Reihen,
das des Allvaters Blicke erbost.
Dein Name brennt auf des Kriegers Brust

God of Thunder
Who crack the sky
Swing your Hammer
Way up high
In chariot of gold
Ride across the clouds
The black storm is unfold
Burning mist is but a shroud
Seeds and honey
Milk and blood
A Sacrifice
To Thunder God
Laid in ship of Oak
On final sail to fate
Steel is at side
Drifting to the open Gates of
Valhalla
Shields of gold
Valhalla
Great warriors hall
I swing my sword in the wind
I feel the powers all within
Valhalla
Valhalla
God of Thunder
Lightning rain
The Winds of Glory
Whispers your name
Pounding pounding
Of hooves and wheels
Forks of lightning
At your heels
Sword of steel
Held up high
Lightning strikes
From blackened skies
Fallen heroes
In Battle slain
Awaits my arrival
At the gates of
Valhalla
Shields of gold
Valhalla
Great warriors hall
I raise my fist to the air
In the creed of powers and glory swear
Repeat chorus
I swing my sword in the wind
I feel the powers all within
Repeat chorus
I raise my fist to the air in the creed of powers and glory swear
Sleet, waves, lightning and thunder
Scarfaces with bright eyes
Singing and shouting
On the way to the next bloody challenge
Listen to what Thor calls out to you
Dip your swords into enemy blood
You men with brave hearts, wild and free
Follow the desire of your gods
Great proud battleship, fulfil our dream
Carry us high into the blue sky
Raise your draginhead out of the stream
Great proud battleship, fulfil our dream
Carry us high into the blue sky
To Valhalla we fly
Like in a dream
Fair long plaits blow in the storm
Far away from home
Devoted to their fate
On the search for the eternal glory
Fighting, wounded, killed in action
To please the gods without fear
Praying, cursing with pride in the heart
Valhalla, we are here
Great proud battleship, fulfil our dream
Carry us high into the blue sky
Raise your draginhead out of the stream
Great proud battleship, fulfil our dream
Carry us high into the blue sky
To Valhalla we fly
Like in a dream
Great proud battleship, fulfil our dream
Carry us high into the blue sky
Raise your draginhead out of the stream
Great proud battleship, fulfil our dream
Carry us high into the blue sky
To Valhalla we fly
Faiths and fools will pretend they have the answers to all
In awe they'll defend fictional visions of mist
I never believed in their stories
I never saw sense in their speech
All they ever taught me was hatred
Through the ages your desolate pages we're forced to learn
Bitter days and your logical maze in return
Through the stages of conscience in cages we bleed and burn
Just take me to Valhalla
Truth and tears of the past haunting my mind as I lay
Alone have at last made up my mind what you are
No learning or logical method
No reason or rhyme in your word
I have learned that nothing is sacred
Through the ages your desolate pages we're forced to learn
Bitter days and your logical maze in return
Through the stages of conscience in cages we bleed and burn
Just take me to Valhalla
Solo: Terji Skibenæs
Take your time, in the end time takes us all we grow
Old and ail, don't pretend you have the answers to all
Don't trouble me with all your worries
Don't tell me were born into sin
Physically and mentally naked
Through the ages your desolate pages we're forced to learn
Bitter days and your logical maze in return
Through the stages of conscience in cages we bleed and burn
Just take me to Valhalla
Existential dictatorship when shall we see the days
Come around when you burn to the ground in a blaze
Stay this madness and keep all your sadness inside your maze
Valhalla,
Valhalla
Pick up your sword
Pick up your shield
And get yourself on to the battle field
This hell on earth
You call your life
We'll snuff it out
And you're gonna die
We come from the north
We come from the ice
We live dangerously
And very short lives
We fight day by day
Sailing the seas
We're natural born slayers
We live by the sword
And die by the sword
We're never afraid
And to drink with the gods
To be singing their songs
I raise my cup in valhalla
To feast in their halls
And laugh with them all
I raise my cup in valhalla
Valhalla
Live by the sword
Die by the sword
The hammer of Thor
Beating you down
The thunder crashing
Through your door
With the gods by our side
We follow the stars
As we sail into
This holy war
We come from the north
We come from the ice
We live dangerously
And very short lives
We fight day by day
Sailing the seas
We're natural born slayers
We live by the sword
And die by the sword
We're never afraid
And to drink with the gods
To be singing their songs
I raise my cup in valhalla
To feast in their halls
And laugh with them all
I raise my cup in valhalla
Valhalla
We live by the sword
And die by the sword
Valhalla
Valhalla
Valhalla
We come from the north
We come from the ice
We live dangerously
And very short lives
We fight day by day
Sailing the seas
We're natural born slayers
We live by the sword
And die by the sword
We're never afraid
And to drink with the gods
To be singing their songs
I raise my cup in valhalla
To feast in their halls
And laugh with them all
