WOLF
Asenblut Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Von Krankheit zerfressen kämpftest du
unermüdlich ohne Ruh'
für dein Leben, Frau und Kind,
die dir treu geblieben sind.

Ein leuchtend Vorbild du uns bist,
kein Tag an dem du nicht vermisst,
dein Licht leuchtet hell und stark,
gibst uns kraft selbst aus dem Grab.

Hast die goldne Halle betreten
wurdest dort zu Tisch gebeten,
an Allvaters Seite sitzt du nun,
die Asen singen zu deinem Ruhm.

Mit stolz dich zu erfüllen ist unser sehnen,
und wenn wir nun die Hörner heben,




dann soll dieses Lied erklingen,
auf das wir uns an dich erinnern!
