Píseň: Gates of Valhalla

Interpret:
Manowar
Album:
Into Glory Ride
Valhalla the gods await me 
Open wide thy gates embrace me. 
Great hall of the battle slain 
With sword in hand. 
All those who stand on shore 
Raise high your hands to bid a last 
farewell to the Viking land. 


Death's chilling wind blows through my hair 
I'm now immortal, I am there 
I take my place by Odin's side 
Eternal army in the sky. 


I point my hatchet to the wind 
I guard the gates and all within 
Hear my sword sing as I ride across the sky 
Sworn by the sacred blood of Odin onward ride. 


Valhalla the gods await me 
Open wide thy gates embrace me 
Great hall of the battle slain 
With sword in hand. 
Behold the kingdom of the kings 
Books of spells and magic rings 
Endless knowledge, endless time 
I scream the final battle cry.
