In Muspel gather the fire giants | At last their time is nigh
Niflheim’s dead congregate | Hel is ready to lead them
The giants of Jotunheim collect | Swords and spears with glee
They all gather together | Ready to fight the gods

Hither comes Jormungand | Dread serpent with venom dripping
Spilling over the world | The waters flood the world of Men
Midgard is flooded | And the Ship of Nails sails with
Hel’s ship and | her armies

Rides now the Aesir | The Vanir
The Einherjar | The Valkyrie
Ride to Vigard Plain | Where the battle will rage
Revere them who | Fight and die to destroy evil

What said Odin | Father of gods
To the gods and champions | To those who surround him
“We will give our lives | Let our world be destroyed
But we will battle so that | Those evil powers will not live after us.”
