Hermod's Ride to Hel - Lokes Treachery, Part 1 (demo) Songtext
von Amon Amarth

"Ride, Sleipner!
Ride for all you′re worth
Faster than lightning
To the dark realms of the world"
Through valleys of darkness
On our way to Nifelheim
To the halls of hel
Where my brother waits Wailing voices on the wind
Urging me to turn
Distant tortured screams
Cold blue fires burn
I hear the sound of river Gjoll
Running cold and deep
Its golden bridge shines in the dark
The bridge that Modgud keeps


Over the bridge, on 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 Balder greets
Bound by invisible, frozen chains

"I have come to bring him back with me
The whole world mourns his death
Please set Balder free
Give him back his breath"
"If it's 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 breath"
