Helheim lyrics
Helheim
[Den dimholjda]
[Hel, the goddess of death is also the goddess of fulfilment. Her name means both "hole" and "whole" and she governs not only death but also the process of birth and rebirth. Hel was hurled down to the world of ice in the beginning of time and there she created nine dark worlds. The bright god Balder and the power of the sun descend into her misty realm, but in the future Balder will be reborn and rise from the womb of Hel like the sun in the springtime.]
Heldrasil, O Heldrasil
Den dimh�ljda gudinnan Hel
i nio v�rldar styr.
P� Gjallarbron, i �lven Gj�ll
de d�da s�ker Dig.
Allt f�r m�nga inf�r Dig f�rtvivla,
O stora gudinna i Hel,
Ditt sk�te �r moder till tiden
hos Dig tager d�den sin del.
Se nornorna spinna v�r tr�d,
v�rt �de styra de
Till Gnipah�lan g�r v�r f�rd
likt Balder d� vi d�.
Vi till Helheim likt Hermod ska resa
hos D�den vi finna v�rt guld,
n�r Balder en g�ng kommer �lter
fr�n Utrid, Verdandi och Skuld.
N�r Helgrinden ska �ppna sig
d� stiger solen upp
nu �terf�dd ur vinterns djup
tillsammans med H�der.
Som en skugga fanns Loke hos H�der
n�r Balder blev d�dad med list.
och alla f�rsvann ner till Helheim
med Misteltens magiska kvist.
Se Helgrinden som �ppnar sig
och guden stiger upp
nu �terf�dd ur vinterns djup
med solen som sitt sv�rd.
Den f�rdolda gudinnan i Helheim
bedriver med livet sitt spel.
Ditt sk�te �r moder till tiden
O stora gudinna i Hel!
[English translation:]
In Nine Worlds to reign
O magnific Godess Hel
On Gjallarbron, Above the (river) Gjoll
They want you.
To fast You fall into despair
O magnific Godess Hel
With Your Womb you'r the Mother of times
and the death is part of you
To Gnipahalan we will follow our jorney
we'll see the norns making our line
our destiny their guide
(and) just like Balder we will die
Like Hermod we'll ride to Helheim
and dead, we'll find our Gold,
When come back again
From Urtid, Verdandi and Skuld
When is open the gates of hel
the sun rise
Reborning from the deep winter,
With H�der
When Balder was killed on the trap
of loki, like a shadow, guiding H�der,
he vanished like everyone in Helheim
by the Mistletoe's magic spear
The God Rises
Behold the opening gates of hel,
Reborning from the deep winter
Hiden Godness of Helheim
He posses the Sun as a Sword,
Play Your game With the life
With Your Womb you'r the Mother of times
O magnific Godess of Hel!!!
