Valkyria from Frozen Hordes by WarTroll

Our backs to the wall, One by one our comrades fall
Soon only I and her, A ring of foes draws in closer
Swords, spears, forward thrust, Axe bites shield as bone is crushed
Wounded, bloodied, beaten, maimed, Show no fear, show no pain

We stand tall, side by side, Her and I not afraid to die
One last glance, a firm embrace, No words needed, charge towards our fate
Smash their lines, break their bones, Impale their flesh, their blood runs cold
They begin to break, their courage fails, Victory in sight, we may prevail

Archers appear behind their ranks
Drawing their arrows aiming for our flanks
Let loose their volleys, a rain of death
I see her fall, I hear her last breath

I raise my head and scream to the sky
My One, My Queen, My Beloved, My I
I rush to her body, now pale and cold
Blood gushing forth from her many wounds
My mind is torn, my heart ripped apart
Her once bright eyes, now dead and dark
Yet her face was neither enraged nor grim
‘Twas calm, peaceful, with the slightest grin
As if she knew what would await
Over the Bridge and through the Gates
In Hall on high, Before the Gods
Oh, my Valkyria!!

Oh, Valkyrie I know you’ll be, And fairer there could never be!
Of all of those who have gone before, beyond the stars and through the door!
The memories come back to me, of Her and I and what used to be!
Our love so strong, our fire bright, my Warrior Queen, her Champion I!

Berserker rage takes over my sword
I charge through their lines, smash through their hordes
Break through their shields, cleave through their skulls
Hack through their mail, 'til my blade is dull
Pierced by their blades and many arrows
I finally fall, succumbed to my foes
She returns from Hall on High
Armored and winged, my Valkyria!!



I see my body on the ground, covered in blood and gore
I fought on to the last, I grip my broken sword
I see my tattered bloody corpse, rising through the sky
In her arms she carries me, to Golden Hall on High

Now we fight forever, Battles in the sky
Her and I together, My Valkyria!!
