lyrics

Part 2

Leaving Asgard three Gods journeyed
To Midgards shores, their grace to show
Ash and Elm, drift wood trees
Unbound by fate, their worth was low

No breath no soul nor spirit found
In washed up tree trunks by the sea
Odin gave breath, Heimdall gave soul
Beards and faces, gift of Loki

Would You Know More?

I know an ash tree, Yggdrasil
Tall and mighty, known as great
Forever green as dew drops spill
Forever shading the well of fate

Three wise women weave their web there
Urd, Verdandi, third is Skuld
They weave all fates inside their lair
Of all the young and all the old

Would You Know More?

War came first into the world
Gullveig speared and burned alive
In Odins Hall three times she died
But back to life each time she would rise

Heith she was named, the unwelcome guest
Dark was her magic, her witchcraft sure
She poisoned minds, left them unblessed
Of all things good, she was evil pure

Cattle Die, Kinsmen Die
I know one thing never dies

To their thrones in Council sat the Gods
Holy powers wielding words
To give tribute or to endure
These sacrifices so impure

Mighty Odin cast his spear
Thus was war unleashed on all
The Vanir rose and showed no fear
To tear down Asgards walls

To their thrones to pass their judgment
Holy powers wielding words
To find the source of strife and lies
Lest Odins wife become an etin bride

Thor alone rose up to fight
His hammer strong, would not allow
Let no oath sworn be set alight
In flames of deceit and broken vow
