|
I lie awake on the battlefield |
|
A fatal wound in my breast |
|
I'm soon to be dead |
|
Yet still |
|
I am thinking... |
|
A sail on the horizon |
|
Vanishing in the crimson dawn... |
|
My comrades are gone... |
|
Victorious! - and silence descends... |
|
Suddenly I hear the hooves |
|
Not born from this earth |
|
The valkyries come |
|
They found me worthy |
|
I'm drawn upon a horse's back |
|
Shivering with fright and joy |
|
I know I have died |
|
To live forevermore |
|
Leaving the world of mortals |
|
I already can see those gates |
|
Once arrived |
|
I will join the feast |
|
Where all my brave ancestors wait |
|
Welcomed by ravens |
|
I'm shown the place |
|
I've earned |
|
Around the fire we sit and drink |
|
Until time ends... |
