He rode for nine long nights without seeing daylight. <br/> Until tired he arrived on the golden bridge.<br/> Tell me why you're going to black Hel<br/> <br/> I'm riding on this path that leads to the land of the dead. <br/> I can find there the son of Odin. Tell me if you've seen him in this lands.<br/> <br/> He passed through here and headed to the north.<br/> <br/> And he rode the gray horse day and night. <br/> For dark and deep valleys in the fog. <br/> As the wind blew over Hel's nine gates. <br/> Tall and proud he stood before the door.<br/> <br/> <br/> There his brother was sitting. <br/> Above a throne of white bones. <br/> His royal bride by his side. <br/> Now they were son of the death. <br/> <br/> The night was cold in those lands, but he fell asleep. <br/> The following morning he appeared before the black queen.<br/> <br/> Let him go back to his home with this gray horse. <br/> Let him go back to his people in his homeland. <br/> I ask you queen of tears and of the dead.<br/> The night does not end in the land of Hel. <br/> Wandering souls and warriors who lied. <br/> The night does not end in the land of Hel. <br/> The misty paths of gloomy and dying light.<br/> The night does not end in the land of Hel. <br/> Dwelling of the dead. Hidden in the dark twilight.<br/> The night does not end in the land of Hel. <br/> You will cry the queen in this night.<br/> <br/> I am the queen of the night and you will listen to me here within these bare walls. <br/> If the God Baldr is truly loved as you say, everyone will have to cry. <br/> Fire and ice, metals and all stones, Trees and beasts must cry and then pray. <br/> Bring this message to your world, son of Odin and never go back to these lands.<br/> <br/> Get out. Never go back to this land again. <br/> Hermóðr son of the one who walks the world.<br/> <br/> He hugged his brother and wife and left. Odin's horse whinnied and flew away. <br/> He returned to Asgard and told the Gods everything he had seen and heard down there in those lands.<br/> <br/> The night does not end in the land of Hel. <br/> Wandering souls and warriors who lied. <br/> The night does not end in the land of Hel. <br/> The misty paths of gloomy and dying light.<br/> The night does not end in the land of Hel. <br/> Dwelling of the dead. Hidden in the dark twilight.<br/> The night does not end in the land of Hel. <br/> You will cry the queen in this night.<br/> <br/> The messengers went to every corner of the world. <br/> All living and should not have mourned the dead God. <br/> Everyone did it, in the world, in the sea and in the sky. <br/> Fire and mountain stones mourned the God. <br/> The Men, the beasts, fire, metals and stones.<br/> Fire, metals and stones.<br/> The trees, the snow, the north wind.<br/> <br/> Dry tears will be shed. Þǫkk will cry on the pyre of the dead God.<br/> Neither in life nor in death gave he me gladness. Let Hel keep what she has!<br/> <br/> The giantess refused to cry for the God. <br/> It is said that she was Loki. With cunning and lie.<br/> <br/> He will be punished for his crimes and cunning lies. <br/> Then he fled and hid in the mountains, in his silence. <br/> The god Baldr remained forever in the black Hel.<br/> <br/> <br/> In that silence he remained forever. <br/> And in the dark he ended forever. <br/> In silence and darkness of Hel.

In those sad days, in their heads. The gods were crying and drinking wine.<br/> The clouds were dark and fall to the ground.

The hammer pounded like a tunderstruck<br/> All men were praying to the dying good God. Beasts and fire, plants and stones.<br/> Their scream of pain was lacerating. The world was wrapped in a storm.<br/> <br/> One day he was sitting in the house on the mountain and the thoughts were as dark as nightmares at night.<br/> The fire was lit in the stone fireplace. The snow fell copiously and whitened the peaks.<br/> When he realized that he was being hunted, he fled to the river and dived.<br/> The gods were deceived and went to the shore. They were finally close to their prey.<br/> <br/> He came from the north, the God of Thunder, to catch the black layer. To stop the great dark.<br/> They surrounded the prey, down to the sea. But Loki was shrewd. He slipped away<br/> <br/> Let's split into two groups, <br/> me in the north and you in the south, <br/> let's use our strength this time. Let's catch the prey now.<br/> This is what we want. <br/> Avenge the god Baldr. <br/> Death to the reaper.<br/> Let's catch the prey now.<br/> <br/> The mountain was snowy everywhere. <br/> He thought about how they could find him there.<br/> The gods were now close.

The hammer pounded like a tunderstruck<br/> All men were praying to the dying good God. Beasts and fire, plants and stones.<br/> Their scream of pain was lacerating. The world was wrapped in a storm.<br/> <br/> He ran away again. He fled to the sea. But the sky is now far away.<br/> Thor grabbed him by the tail, and didn't let him get away. So Loki the liar was imprisoned by the Gods.<br/> <br/> <br/> He was taken to a cave. <br/> The Asir walled it with three stones. <br/> Each large stone had a hole. <br/> He was tied with Narfi's guts to the three stones. <br/> The guts became like of iron and stone.<br/> <br/> Then they took a poisonous snake. <br/> They tied him over his head. <br/> So the poison dripped on his face <br/> making him scream in pain.<br/> <br/> The liar screamed and squirmed in pain. In his eternal pain. <br/> He was imprisoned in a cave. In his eternal pain.<br/> The poison fell on the face. In his eternal pain.<br/> He was chained to three stones. In his eternal pain.<br/> <br/> A violent earthquake broke out. <br/> Victims of fate and black death. <br/> Iron and gold melt in swords. <br/> He will remain in the cave until that day arrives.<br/> The prophecy of Ragnarok will come. <br/> The day of destruction will come. <br/> <br/> The prophecy of Ragnarok will come. <br/> The day of destruction will come. <br/> The history of the world will be told. <br/> He will free himself on that dark day.
