The Valkyries 가사

At the beginning of the 10th century A nation mighty and boldly Reigned over the oceans - the Vikings In 901 they lost Dublin They invaded to North-Thumberland and founded in York a new realm In 913 they undertook the attempt To reconquer their former Irish kingdom In 916 all shall be decided in the battle of Confey Old sagas relate about this battle They tell about twelve belldames The valkyries, which took part on the clash Side by side by the Vikings Against the Irish king Against the archbishop of Armagh Against christianity Wide spaned is the webbing As a sign of the battle The people are raising Blood rains Braided of intestines Strong taut with skulls Strike with sword battle webbing Shaft shall burst shield shall crush Through harness the battleaxe Shall pierce Harm will come over the Irish Never expiring in their mind The work is woven at the battlefield Bane and horror cross the land Bloody clouds cover the sky The air is red by the blood of heroes Whom our verdict ordained to victims We sing tunes of victory To the young king we sing hail Spur the horses to quicker run With bare sword ride away So they rode away Six to the south and six to the north From this time on The Vikings shall reign over the lands Several generations The Irish couldn't regain their former home Which was captured by the Vikings
