The Viking - Repost

Glory and honour oh man of the North Valhalla waits to welcome thee Spend a night of passion with thy Lady For tomorrow death or conquest await Come into my arms my beloved Thou art the queen of my heart Let us share this night it may be our last In joy and majesty our bodies join Tonight is for Love tomorrow Valhalla may await So gently my fingers do play across your soft flesh Thy majesty doth tremble at my touch You moan with pleasure as i do enter thee We shall soon enter Loves' sublime Tomorrow in the battle line we shall stand Tomorrow our fate shall be sealed Tonight the glory of Love Brown eyes that shine with such Love Into me eyes they seep to seek my Soul Come my beloved find my Soul Tonight you have already entered the heart Now I enter thy body If it be one last time then it shall be sublime Night is gone the day is here We stand in battle lines arrayed Shield wall ready to make stand Blood runs fury in the Soul Together my beloved and I shield to shield Battle fury raging deep within An enemy across the empty space does run Come unto thy death sons of war The battle crash heard in Heavens' majesty Odin blow your battle horn Valhalla awaits now let us bathe in blood Odin we fight on to battles' end If this be our end let it be a tale to tell over and over Let the Valkyrie come to take us home The Vikings go home to Valhalla Hail Odin father, God of the Viking The shield wall is broken My eyes now grow dim The battle now over Life it is lost The spirit waits on Unwilling to relinquish Loves' glory Unwilling to relinquish life Yet the Valkyrie come They shall take me or pass me Oh Odin father hear my plea Take thy warrior son to Valhalla Let these struggling eyelids eternally close over this life Over this painful world of memory Yet also memory of Love-light shall live on I know the last sight i see but a memory Two soft brown eyes in a sorrowed face My beloved you had to go home to our son We Loved through our night We fought most of our day My Love left with the ships The dragon flies home to come again We the rearguard held the hounds at bay Once shield wall did break death and destruction Now my heart beats come oh so slowly My sword held tightly in my hand This was a good day Sing the song of my life Vikings Odin father take me home Come Valkyrie I am ready My eyes close on this world my Loves' vision the last thing i see The Halls Of Valhalla!!!!!!! 21/12/2018
