GLORY OF HEL
Lyrics by Erlend Hjelvik

A bloodstained hound is howling
Down in the depths of Hel
A wind of death is blowing
Just like the Norns told well
The world-serpent is writhing
Wolf-father’s taken the reins
Legions of wraiths so murderous
Return once more to kill again

A ship of nails has set sail from the darkest east
Upon its landfall, on gods and mortals feast
The spirits are chanting dirges
On the plains where battle surges
At last she gets her revenge
At the Northern gods’ expense

Go!
Go forth, and kill
For the glory of Hel
Go forth, and kill
For the glory of Hel
Go forth, and kill
For the glory of Hel
Go forth, and kill
For the glory of Hel

In the wake of the wolf
Spring forth the witless hordes
Out from the tears of heaven
Strikes Surtr's shining sword
A giant serpent spewing venom
Fall stars from blackened sky
Sending reinforcements to Helheim
The dead brought back to life

A ship of nails has set sail from the darkest east
Upon its landfall, on gods and mortals feast
The spirits are chanting dirges

On the plains where battle surges
At last she gets her revenge
At the Northern gods’ expense

Go!
Go forth, and kill
For the glory of Hel
Go forth, and kill
For the glory of Hel
Go forth, and kill
For the glory of Hel
Go forth, and kill
For the glory of Hel
