Valhalla

Accompanied by my legion,
The most feared in the region.

Because we are stronger as one,
Taking enemies by the tons.

A brotherhood of family and trust,
Lucky to have the gods look down on us.

Finding pride in battles won,
Because we together are strong.

Said the viking when his enemies fled, 
The beast inside is asleep not dead.

I'm a proud descendant of such men,
In me, their heart beats strong again.

A warrior up until demise,
Strong as the great barn owl is wise.

And when I'm laid down in my grave,
I'll join the mighty and the brave.

As I meet in Valhalla the mighty and the clever,
Where they say the brave may live forever.
