Epitaph

"Days of glory
Left in the past
This perfect day
Will be the last
As time has come,
Forefathers blessed
Soon to join you
I'll lay to rest..."
(Written on a runestone from the year 997 A.C.)
I hail the old northern gods
So help me thou mighty ones
Odin, tyr and thor
Lead me through my final war
Deep in my mind I
Sail across the sea
Though now I ride to
My final battlefield
I'll meet my destiny
Hail to our gods
To valhall we ride
With our swords held high
We're now prepared to die...
