Viking-Battle-Song

Let loose the hounds of war,

The whirling swords!

Send them leaping afar,

Red in their thirst for war;

Odin laughs in his car

At the screaming of the swords!

Far let the white-ones fly,

The whirling swords!

Afar off the ravens spy

Death-shadows cloud the sky.

Let the wolves of the Gael die

'Neath the screaming swords!

The Shining Ones yonder

High in Valhalla

Shout now, with thunder:

Drive the Gaels under,

Cleave them asunder --

Swords of Valhalla!
