Amon Amarth

War of the Gods



Lyrics

WAR!
The very first war of our
WORLD!
When the treacherous
Witch was killed
Three times burned
The three times born
By searing flames
Was Gullveig torn

DEATH!
Oden hurled his spear
Off with great

FORCE!
Deep into the great vana-fyrd
Battle horns
Gave up their sound
And Asgard walls
Razed to the ground
The Vanir felt deceived
Höne was a fool
Without Mimr at his side
Höne could not rule
In a fit of violent rage
Mimr's blood was shed
And to Odin´s court they sent
Mimr´s severed head

TRUCE!
So a brittle and
Frail peace was
FORGED!
And to ensure
That the peace remained
Njord and Frej
To Asgard came
And Hon' and Mim'
To Vanaheim

DEATH!
See the furious
Gods wanting
BLOOD!
Oden knew
That a raging war
Would not bring
Them any gain
Just live a black

And bitter stain
Oden tog huvudet och
Smorde det med örter
Som hindrade det
Fran att kuttna
Han kvad sedan
Trollsanger över det
Sa att Mimr till honom

The Vanir felt deceived
Höne was a full
Without Mimr at his side
Höne could not rule
In a fit of violent rage
Mimr's blood was shed
And to Odin´s court
they sent
Mimr´s severed head
