Amon Amarth - War Of The Gods Lyrics
War, the very first war of our world,When the treacherous witch was killedThree times burned and three times born,By searing flames was Gullveig torn.Death, Oden hurled his spear off with great forceDeep into the great vana-fyrdBattle horns gave up their soundAnd Asgard walls razed to the ground.The Vanir felt deceivedH'nir was a foolWithout M'mir at his sideH'nir could not ruleIn a fit of violent rageM'mir's blood was she'dAnd to Odin's court they sent M'mir's severed headTruce, so a brittle and frail peace was forgedAnd to ensure that the peace remained.Njordr and Frej to Asgard cameAnd H'n' and Mim' to VanaheimDeath, see the furious gods wanting blood,Oden knew that a raging warWould not bring them any gainJust leave a black and bitter stain.Odin tog huvudet ochSmorde det med 'rterSom hindrar detFr'n att ruttnaHan kvad sedanTrolls'nger 'ver detS' att Mimer 'terKunde tala till honomThe Vanir felt deceivedH'nir was a foolWithout M'mir at his sideH'nir could not ruleIn a fit of violent rageM'mir's blood was she'dAnd to Oden's court they sent M'mir's severed headThe Vanir felt deceivedH'nir was a foolWithout M'mir at his sideH'nir could not ruleIn a fit of violent rageM'mir's blood was she'dAnd to Oden's court they sent M'mir's severed head
