A trio of war, of battle, of strife

Giver of death and taker of life

Three women and three crowsThe maiden, the mother and the crone

The bloodstained angel watches us all

To deliver us to glory after we fall

Return to the halls of the dead

Her arm in mine, shieldmaiden′s stead

A trio of war, of battle, of strife

Giver of death and taker of life

Three women and three crows

The maiden, the mother and the crone

The bloodstained angel watches us all

To deliver us to glory after we fall

Return to the halls of the dead

Her arm in mine, shieldmaiden's stead

The phantom queen flies sovereign above

A spirit of black feathers watching below

She waits for the fallen to take their leave

So that she might be foretold to come

A squadron of valkyries in her wake

Singing laments and nocturnes for the lost

When cold finality is at stake

We who are crucified on the cross

Freya weeps upon her golden throne

For dead men slain in her name

A circlet of raven′s down on her brow

Rusts from her tears, fallen like rain

Ironically fortunate am I

To gaze upon a goddess so stunning

Pale skin of white and hair kissed by fire

O to a glorious heaven I'm coming

A trio of war, of battle, of strife

Giver of death and taker of life

Three women and three crows

The maiden, the mother and the crone

The bloodstained angel watches us all

To deliver us to glory after we fall

Return to the halls of the dead

Her arm in mine, shieldmaiden's stead

A trio of war, of battle, of strife

Giver of death and taker of life

Three women and three crows

The maiden, the mother and the crone

The bloodstained angel watches us all

To deliver us to glory after we fall

Return to the halls of the dead

Her arm in mine, shieldmaiden′s stead

Sable wings of celestial angels

Draped in white robes flowing freely

Guarded by serpentine armor

Before her I present myself kneeling

If this is the afterlife that awaits me

Then I would go with her to it

Warrior woman, goddess of ice

I trust that she could carry me through it

To a blissful eternity

Spent with her forever and ever

Until Ragnarok and the ends of the Earth

She is the guardian in the great endeavour

Would it be wrong to claim that I love her?

A mortal betrothed to a god of the frost?

I am hers and she is mine

Together in apocalyptic holocaust
