The Valkyries |
At the beginning of the 10th century |
A nation mighty and boldly |
Reigned over the oceans — the Vikings |
In 901 they lost Dublin |
They invaded to North-Thumberland and founded in York a new realm |
In 913 they undertook the attempt |
To reconquer their former Irish kingdom |
In 916 all shall be decided in the battle of Confey |
Old sagas relate about this battle |
They tell about twelve belldames |
The valkyries, which took part on th clash |
Side by side by the Vikings |
Against th Irish king |
Against the archbishop of Armagh |
Against christianity |
Wide spaned is the webbing |
As a sign of the battle |
The people are raising |
Blood rains |
Braided of intestines |
Strong taut with skulls |
Strike with sword battle webbing |
Shaft shall burst shield shall crush |
Through harness the battleaxe |
Shall pierce |
Harm will come over the Irish |
Never expiring in their mind |
The work is woven at the battlefield |
Bane and horror cross the land |
Bloody clouds cover the sky |
The air is red by the blood of heroes |
Whom our verdict ordained to victims |
We sing tunes of victory |
To the young king we sing hail |
Spur the horses to quicker run |
With bare sword ride away |
So they rode away |
Six to the south and six to the north |
From this time on |
The Vikings shall reign over the lands |
Several generations |
The Irish couldn’t regain their former home |
Which was captured by the Vikings |
