lyrics

[Sung – Verse]

Now Garmr howls loud before Gnipahellir,
The fetters will burst, and the Wolf run free;
Much do I know, and more can see
Of the fate of the gods, the mighty in fight.
The sea, storm-driven, seeks heaven itself,
O'er the earth it flows, the air grows sterile;
Then follow the snows and the furious winds,
For the gods are doomed, and the end is death.

[Sung – Blast beat]

Now comes to Hlín, yet another hurt,
When Óðinn fares to fight with the wolf,
And Beli's fair slayer seeks out Surt,
For there must fall the joy of Frigg.

[Sung – Verse]

Now Garmr howls loud before Gnipahellir,
The fetters will burst, and the Wolf run free;
Then follow the snows and the furious winds,
For the gods are doomed, and the end is death.

[Sung - Interlude]

Now comes to Hlin, yet another hurt,
When Óðinn fares to fight with the wolf,
And Beli's fair slayer seeks out Surt,
For there must fall the joy of Frigg.

[Sung – Chorus]

Then comes Sigfather's mighty son,
Viðarr, to fight with the foaming wolf;
In the giant's son does he thrust his sword
Full to the heart: his father is avenged.

[Sung – Verse]

Now Garmr howls loud before Gnipahellir,
The fetters will burst, and the Wolf run free;
Much do I know, and more can see
Of the fate of the gods, the mighty in fight.
The sea, storm-driven, seeks heaven itself,
O'er the earth it flows, the air grows sterile;
Then follow the snows and the furious winds,
For the gods are doomed, and the end is death.

-- [All lyrics come from various stanzas in the “Völuspá” poem of the Poetic Edda] --
