Hermods Ride To Hel Lyrics

Ride Sleipnir Ride for all your worth Faster then lightning To the dark realms of the world Through valleys of darkness On the way to Nifelheim To the house of Hel Where my brother awaits Wailing voices on the wind Urging me to turn Distant torture screams Cold blue fires burn I hear the sound of River Gjöll Running cold and deep Its golden bridge hangs in the dark The bridge that Modgunn keeps Over the bridge, all through the night Hel is getting near There are the gates, towering high Afflicting me with fear In her hall at the honour seat My brother sits in pain Pale and tortured by the shrieks Bound by invisible frozen chains [Hermod:] I am bound to bring him back with me! The whole world mourns his death! Please set brother free! Give him back his breath! [Hel:] If its true, what you say to me That the whole world mourns his death If the whole world will weep, I will give him back his life!
