歌曲歌詞
Upon his shoulders perch two ravens
Huginn and muninn
They circle the earth
By day seeing all
At night they report
To him the world's tidings
He wears a golden helmet
And a golden ring
At his side sit two wolves
His weapons a magic sword
And a spear called gungnir
They are carved with runes
His eight legged horse sleipnir
Carries him over land sea and air
The bringer of the valiant dead
The einherjar from
The battlefield across
The rainbow bridge to valhalla
For a single drink of the
Enchanted water he paid
With one eye he was granted
Supreme wisdom
He is the god of poetry
Sorcery and death
Wounded pierced by
A spear he hung upside
Down for nine days
Fasting and agony
He made of himself
A sacrifice to himself
Given no bread nor mead
He looked down
And with a loud cry fell
Screaming from the world tree
N a flash of insight
The secret magic of the runes
Was revealed to him
He took up the runes
And mastered them
Eighteen powerful charms
For protection
Success in battle
Lovemaking
Healing and the power
To bring back the dead
His sacred blood mixed
With black wind
And rain wept down
From the world tree
Deep into the earth
He commanded the earth to crack open
And to spew forth
The strongest of the strong
On this day he did bestow
Unto the world the sons of odin
