The Third and the Noble

Wende The Third and the Noble專輯

9.Towards Ragnarok

Thus it is related in Voluspaoud blows Heimdall, his horn aloft.
Odin speaks with Mim's head.
The ash Yggdrasil shakes as it stands,
The ancient tree groans and the giant gets free.
What is it with the Aesir?
What is it with the Elves?
All giantland resounds.
The Aesir are in council
Dwarves groan before rock doorways
Frequenters of rock - walls.
Know you yet of what?
Hyrm drives from the east
Holding his shield before him,
Iormungand writhes in giant rage
The serpent churns the waves
The eagles screech with joy
Darkly pale, it tears corpses
Naglfar is loose bark sails from the east
Across the sea will come Muspell's troops with Loki at the helm
All that monstrous brood
Are there with the wolf
In company with them is Byleist's brother.
Surt travels from the south
With the stick destroyer (fire)
Shines from his sword the sun
Of the gods of the slain rock cliffs crash
And troll-wives are abroad
Heroes tread the road of Hel
And heaven splits then Hlin's second sorrow
Comes to pass
As Odin goes to fight the wolf
And Beli's bright slayer against Surt
There shall fall Frigg's delight Odin's son goes to fight the
wolf
Vidar on his way
Against the slaughterous beast
With his hand he lets his blade pierce
The son of Hverdungs heart
So his father is avenged goes the great son of Hlodyn
Dying to the serpent who shrinks from no shame
And all the heroes shall then leave the world
When Midgard's protector strikes his wrath!
The sun will go dark
Earth sink in the sea
From heaven tanish bright stars Steam surges
And life's fires flame
Flickers against the very sky.
