Norse War Poetry

A Poem by Ian Teo
"

Norse War Poetry with references of Odin and Valhalla.

"
Stand by me, 
Brothers and warriors 
Beyond lies the rainbow bridge 
Where heroes to Valhalla meet 
Let it be worthy of our keep 

Through this glorious battle 
Let our mortal blood seethe 
Swords clash and helmets smash 
May our courage be truly tested 
For eternity we will be rested 

Shall we fall, 
Bodies torn and souls lost 
May we enter Odin's hall 
Where one who stands before 
Odin's greatest kings of all 

Onwards, 
Made brothers of this day 
March together into the fray 
Live and die on this day 
Heroes of the heathen foray 

When the gjallarhorn sound 
Skies shall cry of thunder 
While fools run aground 
Earth will be torn asunder 
As brothers, we will be found 

If Ragnarok's coming, 
Gods and kings to the fighting 
Let it be this one final day 
Where all shall enter the fray 
Kings of the heathenish foray 

Only the best, 
Shall step into Valgrind gate 
Beyond where Valhalla awaits 
Where glorious is the dead 
And eternal is Odin's grace.
