Dauði (Live - Bonus Track)

Ligg ég, leka mín sár,
Loppinn kólnar minn nár.
Dauðinn dregur mig nær,
Dettur yfir mig snær.

Lið mitt liggur hjá mér,
Látin hersingin er.
Hetjur höfðu það af,
Hefndin frið okkur gaf.

Hinsta dreg ég andardráttinn,
Drengur Óðins missir máttinn.
Sortinn teygir sína arma,
Sól úr austri kastar bjarma.
Loksins reiði lægja öldur,
Laskað sverð og brotinn skjöldur.
Bros á varir Baldurs færist,
Bræðralagið aldrei tærist.

Vígamaður Baldur Óðinsson!

Gunnar jarl og Grímur deyja,
Guðirnir þá munu heygja.
Vargurinn í valinn beygður,
Verður seint af nokkrum heygður.
Brosi nú til barna minna,
Brátt mun öllum sorgum linna.
Kæra sé ég konu mína
Kúra upp við syni sína.

Nú er ekki neinn sem lifir,
Nóttin hellist kolsvört yfir.
Líf í Baldurs auga blikar,
Bíður dauðinn, aðeins hikar.
Upp er runnin stóra stundin,
Stöðvast allt við hinsta blundinn.
Blæs úr norðri, bærast stráin,
Baldur er nú loksins dáinn!

Multitude (Live - Bonus Track)

Lying here, I lick my wounds,
My body grows cold.
Death draws near,
Snow falls upon me.

My men lie beside me,
The battle is over.
Heroes have fallen,
But revenge has brought us peace.

I take my last breath,
A warrior of Odin, my strength fades.
Darkness spreads its arms,
But the sun rises in the east.
Finally, the storm of centuries subsides,
Broken swords and shields grow still.
A smile touches Balder's lips,
The brotherhood will never end.

Warrior, Balder, son of Odin!

Gunnar the Earl and Grim will die,
And the gods will bury them.
The wolf was slain in the battle,
And no one will mourn its death.
Now smile upon my children,
For their sorrow will soon end.
I love my wife dearly,
May she comfort our sons and daughters.

Now there is no one left alive,
And night falls, pitch-black.
Life glimmers in Balder's eye,
He waits for death, but it hesitates.
The great moment has arrived,
All things come to an end with this final blow.
The wind blows from the north, carrying the straw,
And Balder is finally dead!
