Odin - the god of nocturnal storms
Ranged the sky with his horse
Deciding man's fate
When there was a battle on earth
Odin sent his valkyries
To mingle with the combatants and determine
Which warriors should fall
And they awarded - victory and glory
To those combatants - who won their favour
After the bloodbath - they returned to Valhalla
Announced to Odin - those who would join the troop
In the splendour of his holyness - he rarely appeared
But in a disguise - he travelled the world
Creating warriors - so strong and glorious
From ordinary men
Grew up so splendid heroes
Heroes in godly blaze
He knew the spells - which cured the illness
Magic formulas - which broke the chains
Those which rendered - weapons so powerless
Dead could speak, waves could rose
- by his magic spells
