Weep for the God of Light

like the prophecy foretold,

the end is in sight

Hella holds on with all her might,

hit by an arrow uncontrolled.

Weep for the God of Light

The mistletoe has a deadly bite.

Everything was safe and controlled,

but now the end is in sight

It was the trickster's delight

Hodr's arrow and blindfold

weep for the God of Light

Without him nothing is right

the chaos of Ragnarok unfolds

weep for the God of Light

For the end is in sight.
