Sleipnir
(Spoken Intro)
He is descended from giants.
His father Loki, God of fire, is the sworn blood
brother to Odin himself.
He rides across land, sea, and air from the land of
the living, to the land of the dead.
This eight legged steed crosses eight points of the
compass, from eight directions into eight
dimensions.
He is the bringer of the valiant dead from the
battlefield to Valhalla!
Carry we who die in battle
Over land and sea
Across the rainbow bridge
To Valhalla
Odin's waiting for me
He was born of giants
His icy coat is grey
At night he rides into the world of death
The living by day
One day on his back I shall ride
From the battlefield into the sky
Borne by Valkyries we Valiant Dead
Into the Hall of Heroes shall be led
Ride down from Asgard
To the battlefield
Bringer of the Valiant Dead
Who died but never yeilded
Carry we who die in battle
Over land and sea
Across the rainbow bridge
To Valhalla
Odin's waiting for me
Faster than the fastest horse alive
The living son of fire rides
From the halls of Asgard across the sky
To the world of Gods and Men
Eight legs and magic runes
Carved upon his teeth
Thunder and lightning
Sound beneath his feet
On his back the war God Odin rides
Sword and magic spear held high
Ride down from Asgard
To the battlefield
Bringer of the Valiant Dead
Who died but never yielded
Carry we who die in battle
Over land and sea
Across the rainbow bridge
To Valhalla
Odin's waiting for me
(Instrumental Solo)
Carry we who die in battle
Over land and sea
Across the rainbow bridge
To Valhalla
Odin's waiting for me
Carry we who die in battle
Over land and sea
Across the rainbow bridge
To Valhalla
Odin's waiting
Carry we who die in battle
Over land and sea
Across the rainbow bridge
To Valhalla
Odin's waiting
Carry we who die in battle
Over land and sea
Across the rainbow bridge
To Valhalla
Odin's waiting for me
Carry we who die in battle
Over land and sea
Across the rainbow bridge
To Valhalla
Odin's waiting for me
