To Valhalla

Here I stand, alone again
Upon the battlefield
With sword in hand, I lay me down
My destiny awaits
The first to strike, the last to fall
My father would be proud
One last time I think of home
My legacy remains

When the time comes for me
I’ll be buried at sea
And a valkyrie will take me where I long to be
Carry me through the gates
Where my brothers await
In the halls of Valhalla we’ll celebrate

The drums of war are silent now
And snow begins to fall
I cannot move, I cannot feel
But I am not afraid
I’ll fight again by Odin’s side
Such is my destiny
My time has come, I close my eyes
And draw my final breath

When the time comes for me
I’ll be buried at sea
And a valkyrie will take me where I long to be
Carry me through the gates
Where my brothers await
In the halls of Valhalla we’ll celebrate
