| Lyrics |
We set the sails and hauled our oarsheading for the gods alone know wherein the whale's wake we left our shoresheading for the gods know where.
We steered the winds that Asgard sentheading for the gods alone know whereand the waves did rave without relentheading for the gods know where.
So heave me heroes, heave and haul
Valhalla hails thee, one and all.
Clash of salt-crests, foamed and flewheading for the gods alone know wherehail and hoar-frost hacked our crewheading for the gods know where.
The Albatrosses in the skyheading for the gods alone know wherelike Valkeyries where the vanquished lieheading for the gods know where.
So heave me heroes, heave and haul
Valhalla hails thee, one and all.
No time to dream of your fond farmsheading for the gods alone know wherenor to dwell upon your lady's charmsheading for the gods know where.
The mighty Midgard-serpent's tailheading for the gods alone know wheredid writhe, and rise up like a flailheading for the gods know where.
So heave me heroes, heave and haul
Valhalla hails thee, one and all.
The seas turned black as boiling tarheading for the gods alone know whereand shadow-shrouds obscured our starheading for the gods know where.
Then maggot-mouths munched on our hullheading for the gods alone know whereas we drifted in this lurid-lullheading for the gods know where.
So heave me heroes, heave and haul
Valhalla hails thee, one and all.
And as if this destiny was plannedheading for the gods alone know whereeventually we sighted landheading for the gods know where.
So heave me heroes, heave and haul
Valhalla hails thee, one and all.
