lyrics

Sá hon Valkyrjur vítt of komnar
Görvar at ríða til goðþjóðar
Skuld helt skildi en Skögul önnur
Gunnr, Hildr, Göndul ok Geirskögul
Nú eru talðar nönnur Herjans
Görvar at ríða grund Valkyrjur

x4
Görvar at ríða
Görvar at ríða
Valkyrjur

x4
Sá hon vítt ok of vítt of veröld hverja

-

On all sides I saw Valkyries assemble
Ready to ride to the ranks of the gods
Skuld bore the shield and Skogul rode next
Gunnr, Hildr, Gondul and Geirskogul
For they are named Herjan's maidens
Valkyries ready to ride over the earth

x4
Ready to ride
Ready to ride
Valkyries

x4
Widely I saw over all the worlds

Deep Dark Germanic Folk. Such in love with your work. Perfect feeling for moving through Landscapes or for Dancing. Feeling the ancestors, pray with them and stay in ecstatic states. Love dark atmosphere surrounded with hopeful melodies. Through the dark comes Light. Never forget the Balance of both. Love you All Krishnasøn

This might be my favourite of Heilung. They've improved a bit on their later releases but their debut is still much meaner, and darker. Maria's amazing voice obviously steals the show but I also quite like Kai's too, especially on the live performance. In fact I'd say get LIFA over this IMO. The spoken word bits are really cool to hear proto-germanic in use but for relistening purposes they are going to be a bit obtrusive. Nevertheless the proper music here is on continual repeat for me.
