Voyaging To Vinland |
We set the sails and hauled our oars |
Heading for the gods alone know where |
In the whale’s wake we left our shores |
Heading for the gods know where |
We steered the winds that Asgard sent |
Heading for the gods alone know where |
And the waves did rave without relent |
Heading for the gods know where |
So heave me heroes, heave and haul |
Valhalla hails thee, one and all |
Clash of salt-crests, foamed and flew |
Heading for the gods alone know where |
Hail and hoar-frost hacked our crew |
Heading for the gods know where |
The Albatrosses in the sky |
Heading for the gods alone know where |
Like Valkyries where the vanquished lie |
Heading 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 farms |
Heading for the gods alone know where |
Nor to dwell upon your lady’s charms |
Heading for the gods know where |
The mighty Midgard-serpent's tail |
Heading for the gods alone know where |
Did writhe, and rise up like a flail |
Heading for the gods know where |
So heave me heroes, heave and haul |
Valhalla hails thee, one and all |
The seas turned black as boiling tar |
Heading for the gods alone know where |
And shadow-shrouds obscured our star |
Heading for the gods know where |
Then maggot-mouths munched on our hull |
Heading for the gods alone know where |
As we drifted in this lurid lull |
Heading for the gods know where |
So heave me heroes, heave and haul |
Valhalla hails thee, one and all |
And as if this destiny was planned |
Heading for the gods alone know where |
Eventually we sighted a land |
Heading for the gods know where |
So heave me heroes, heave and haul |
Valhalla hails thee, one and all |
