Battle Of Tettenhall

All the armies are deployed and fit
My father stands fearless in the front line
Our future is already sealed
Will our courage lead us to win?
For two centuries we controlled these lands
But now it’s time to spill the blood on the sand
Shield Wall!

Inside me the tension keeps increasing
The rune in my hand will protect me
Wessex and Mercia are preparing to attack
For all of us there is no way back.

Day after day, night after night
For the immortal gods we fight
All together valiant and brave
Until the sun goes down
Day after day, night after night
When the blades still wildly shine
Like a storm we’ll rise up from
The ashes of our ancestors.

Side by side, every man hides his hope
In a sword, in a shield, in the sky.

Ethereal entities are watching us around the battlefield
Flocks of birds above our heads create multiple shapes
If this is to be our final effort, we will fight
If this is to be our last day, we’ll proudly die.

Will our souls be protected for eternity?
Will our spirits be welcomed to Valhalla and be free?
