Thor
Thrudvangar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Im Lande Thrudvangar
steht sein Heim Bilkimir
gleich einem Wolkengebirge,
sich bis in den Himmel türmt.
Es ist der Sohn des Odin,
der Mächtigste unter den Göttern.

Überragend in Größe und Kraft,
rotes Haar schmückt sein Haupt.
Seine Augen blicken milde,
aber wenn er zornig wird,
bläst er in seinen Bart,
ein Donner, den seine Feinde kennen.

Seine Waffe ist der Hammer,
Zermalmer ist sein Name.
Schleudert er ihn im Kampf,
trifft er wie ein Blitzstrahl.
Spaltet harte Riesenschädel
und tausendjährige Felsenhäupter.

Refrain:
Thor, Gott der Gerechten.
Mit Blitz und Donner
und Mjölnir in seiner Hand.




Verteidiger der Welt,
Midgards Wehr.
