Delpht Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Came to collect the souls
Choosing who′s to die who's to live
Obey the supreme voice
Now the wolves of sea are in the holy drakkars
Waiting for the sign that they will see
In a new sunrise
In the skies nine desires
Fill men′s hearts with fear
'Cause they all know one of them
Will be taken to the last fight
Now the nine valkyries complete one more mission
Leading to valhala a killed soul
In his last sunrise
Riding through the clouds
With faith in their weapons on greatest winged steeds
They love someone, the warrior with no face
Riding, fairies are riding
Fairies sent by the gods

The ride of the valkyries.
The song "Ride of the Valkyries" by Delpht is a dramatic and epic depiction of the valkyries, female figures from Norse mythology who rode winged horses and were tasked with selecting who would live and who would die in battle. The opening lines of the song describe the valkyries descending from the skies to collect the souls of fallen warriors and choosing who will die and who will be allowed to live. The valkyries are portrayed as obeying the will of a supreme voice, likely a reference to the Norse god Odin who commanded the valkyries.
The song then shifts to describe the wolves of the sea, waiting for a sign that they will witness a new sunrise. This is likely a reference to the Vikings, who were known for their seafaring prowess and pillaging raids. The imagery of the nine desires filling men's hearts with fear suggests that these desires are for battle and glory, and that the warriors know that one of them will be selected to join the valkyries in the last fight.

From the skies nine dreams
Nine otherworldly beings descended from the heavens
Came to collect the souls
To select and gather the departed spirits of the fallen
Choosing who's to die who's to live
Deciding who will perish and who will survive
Obey the supreme voice
Following the command of the high authority
Now the wolves of sea are in the holy drakkars
The fierce warriors of the ocean are aboard the sacred vessels
Waiting for the sign that they will see
Anticipating the signal that they shall receive
In a new sunrise
As a fresh day dawns over the horizon
In the skies nine desires
The nine aspirations soar high above
Fill men's hearts with fear
Instilling dread within the hearts of men
'Cause they all know one of them
For they are all aware that one among them
Will be taken to the last fight
Shall be taken to the final battle
Now the nine valkyries complete one more mission
The nine demigoddesses finish yet another quest
Leading to valhala a killed soul
Guiding a deceased warrior to Valhalla
In his last sunrise
During his final dawn
Riding through the clouds
Galavanting through the aerial plains
With faith in their weapons on greatest winged steeds
Mounted on powerful winged horses, armed with conviction and armament
They love someone, the warrior with no face
They hold affection for an anonymous hero
Riding, fairies are riding
Ambling forward, guided by fantastical beings
Fairies sent by the gods
Mythical creatures dispatched by the divine forces
