Hymn of the Immortal Warriors
Manowar Lyrics

A hero was he
He was a great hero

Touching all our lives
He had an impact on everyone's life

As if he lived and died
His life and death were of great significance

In a single moment
It all happened quickly

Great were his deeds
He achieved many great things

All his words were true
He always spoke the truth

He lived and died
His life and death were noteworthy

A man of honor
He was an honorable man

He paid with his life
He lost his life

For his life was the price
His life was the cost

To pass the gates immortal
To enter the gates of immortality

Thy journey begins
Your journey starts

With sword in the wind
Holding your sword high in the wind

Stay thy hand rest thy command
Hold back and wait for further orders

For odin's call was heard above them all
Odin's call was the most important

Thy name shall never die!
Your name will always be remembered

Long shall we remember
We will remember for a long time

He who walked the road of danger
He took the dangerous path

Master of revenge
He was skilled in getting revenge

Death's no stranger
He was familiar with death

Blood and death lived on his sword
His sword was stained with blood and death

The god of war his only lord
His only master was the god of war

Into the depths of hell
He went to the depths of hell

Go all he fell
He fell along with the others

Take thy shield take thy sword
Grab your shield and sword

All thy weapons to the sky
Lift all your weapons up to the sky

Ye shall need them when odin bid thee rise
You will need them when Odin asks you to rise

For none but the brave
Only the brave

Shall rise up from the grave
Will rise from the dead

To see the valkyries fly
To witness the Valkyries flying

And so it was by the hand of odin
Odin was responsible

Did the immortal warrior pass through
The immortal warrior passed through

The gates of valhalla and into legend.
And became a legend in Valhalla

Rise brother rise pass valhalla's gates
Rise up and pass through Valhalla's gates

Here great warriors await
Many great warriors are waiting

Reborn from thy steel
Reborn from your sword

All thy wounds be healed
All your wounds will be healed

From the earth to the sky
From the ground to the heavens

Now the son of odin rise!
Now the son of Odin will rise

Take thy place among the kings
Take your place among the kings

For thy soul shall never die!
Because your soul will never die
