|
Outside of this world, there are others to be found |
|
Many rise above Midgard and some lie below the ground |
|
They're all bound together by the great world tree |
|
There Odin hanged for days so we all could be free |
|
Not anything can bring it down, no force or man alive |
|
Only Nidhoggr down below can threaten all mankind |
|
No mercy will be shown on that fateful day |
|
When it falls, the wolf breaks free, and all gods join the fray |
|
Jormungand surrounds the sea to keep the waves at bay |
|
When he leaves, the sea will flow as the sky turns gray. |
|
The Einherjer will rise again to fight another day |
|
They work with the Aesir to drive evil away. |
|
[Chorus] |
|
Yggdrasil |
|
The tree of all life |
|
On the day it comes down, we all join the fight |
|
Yggdrasil |
|
Consumed by burning flames |
|
Soon the mighty Surt will descend from Muspelheim |
|
Sons of Muspel ride across the bridge Bifrost |
|
Heimdall blows his mighty horn, or all will be lost |
|
Naglfar sets its sails, and Jormungand comes to shore |
|
Only the serpent can be faced by the mighty Thor |
|
Loki comes to the battlefield, followed by legions of Hel |
|
Fenrir breaks from his chains, and others too evil to tell |
|
To the giant battlefield, the evil legions arrive |
|
It is time now for the gods to ride |
