I come to the hall of my brothers

Weary with sleep and spilt blood

Battle-worn, blade scarred

Hoisted upon my shield

Eagles watch my fate with hungry eyes

Ravens sing and wolves bay

There shall be a feast tonight

Honored dead greet great Valfather

Victorious, ravaged, hailed

Companions of Shield Maidens

I know one sacrifice yet to be made

That which is due the father of battle.
