Starkad

In the silence of years

We all are spent

But who will dare to forget?!

The time when heroes were fighting

For faith and glory,

Honor and pride of the dead.

I was cruel and noble

Like a northern wolf

I laughed at the face of death

When I spoke my words turned

To wizard poems

No one looked at me as I left.

What a great life it was

When I went for distant shores

The One Eyed God took all those

Who were slain in the war!

I knew no fear, no pain

And no despair,

And the victories always were mine.

And my treasures and gold

Were bright and fair

And my steel sword was true and fine.

After all the days I lived

I'm standing on my knees

All the beautiful verses I said

Faded like dead leaves.

My glorious victories

Are paid with unhealing wounds

And so heavy lies on my shoulders

The blood of the beloved ones.

My third life came to the end

I'm old, my eyes can't see

God of the fallen, remember your word

Send your ravens to me.
