|
While the barley of Huginn |
|
Lies unburied still; |
|
Their bones picked clean by ravens |
|
The liberator of Germania was betrayed |
|
|
|
Wuotan gives and Wuotan takes! |
|
|
|
A fate worse than death was her share |
|
Thusnelda, a trophy for Germanicus |
|
So Thumelicus was born |
|
A slave of noble blood ... |
|
|
|
Wuotan gives and Wuotan takes! |
|
|
|
Able to meet his end |
|
with the fire of Wuotan |
|
clenched firmly in his hand; |
|
the final path to Valhalla |
|
There is no place for personal fame |
|
There is only the thread spun by the maidens |
|
Who dwell by the well of Urd |
|
Steering your fate, towards glory or disgrace... |
