The Valkyries

At the beginning of the 10th century
A nation mighty and boldly
Reigned over the oceans - the Vikings

In 901 they lost Dublin
They invaded to North-Thumberland and founded in York a new realm
In 913 they undertook the attempt
To reconquer their former Irish kingdom
In 916 all shall be decided in the battle of Confey

Old sagas relate about this battle
They tell about twelve belldames
The valkyries, which took part on the clash

Side by side by the Vikings
Against the Irish king
Against the archbishop of Armagh
Against christianity

Wide spaned is the webbing
As a sign of the battle
The people are raising
Blood rains

Braided of intestines
Strong taut with skulls
Strike with sword battle webbing
Shaft shall burst shield shall crush

Through harness the battleaxe
Shall pierce
Harm will come over the Irish
Never expiring in their mind

The work is woven at the battlefield
Bane and horror cross the land
Bloody clouds cover the sky
The air is red by the blood of heroes
Whom our verdict ordained to victims
We sing tunes of victory
To the young king we sing hail

Spur the horses to quicker run
With bare sword ride away

So they rode away
Six to the south and six to the north
From this time on
The Vikings shall reign over the lands

Several generations
The Irish couldn't regain their former home
Which was captured by the Vikings
