Text
- He is descended from giants. His father Loki,
- God of fire, is the sworn blood brother to
- Odin himself. He rides across land, sea and air
- From the land of the living, to the land of
- The dead. This eight legged steed crosses eight
- Points of the compass, from eight directions
- Into eight dimensions. He is bringer of the
- Valiant dead from the battlefield to Valhalla!
- Carry we who die in battle
- Over land and sea
- Across the rainbow bridge to Valhalla
- Odin’s waiting for me
- He was born of giants
- His icy coat is grey
- At night he rides into the world of death
- The living by day
- One day on his back I shall ride
- From the battlefield into the sky
- Borne by Valkyries we valiant dead
- Into the hall of heroes shall be led
- Ride down from Asgard
- To the battlefield
- Bringer of the valiant dead
- Who died but never yielded
- Carry we who die in battle
- Over land and sea
- Across the rainbow bridge to Valhalla
- Odin’s waiting for me
- Faster then the fastest horse alive
- The living son of fire rides
- From the halls of across the sky
- To the world of gods and men
- Eight legs and magic runes
- Carved upon his teeth
- Thunder and lightning
- Sound beneath his feet
- On his back the war god Odin rides
- Sword and magic spear held high
- Ride down from Asgard
- To the battlefield
- Bringer of the valiant dead
- Who died but never yielded
- Carry we who die in battle
- Over land and sea
- Across the rainbow bridge to Valhalla
- Odin’s waiting for me
