[Intro]
[Verse ]
Through clouds torn apart by a blaze of fire,
The sky of Asgard knows no peace or play!
On iron wheels of the heavy chariot,
Goats gallop across the rumbling sky!
Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjóstr pave the way,
Where the gloom grows dark and grim.
Fiery beard and a fierce, sharp gaze,
The god of strength who never finds peace!
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Fasten the belt of Megingjörð,
Don the iron gauntlets of Járngreipr!
The land of Midgard trembles in fear,
Bow to the passing of its Great Lord!
[Chorus]
Thor! Son of Odin! Champion of the strong!
Strike with the hammer, awaken even the dead!
Thunder is your cry, lightning is your gift,
Before Mjölnir there is no mercy!
Crush the giants, protect the land,
You are the invincible god of this eternal war!
[Verse 2]
Forged in shadows by Sindri and Brokkr,
The perfect hammer that shatters every rock!
Though its handle was born a little short,
Whoever challenges that iron walks as a dead man!
In the ruthless realm of Jötunheimr,
Hearts freeze in the kingdoms of cold.
Frost giants know the heavy blade,
Crushed and destroyed in his iron grip!
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Fasten the belt of Megingjörð,
Don the iron gauntlets of Járngreipr!
The sky cracks open in a silver beam,
Monsters crumble into the oblivion of the wind!
[Chorus]
Thor! Son of Odin! Champion of the strong!
Strike with the hammer, awaken even the dead!
Thunder is your cry, lightning is your gift,
Before Mjölnir there is no mercy!
Crush the giants, protect the land,
You are the invincible god of this eternal war!
[Verse 3]
In the depths of the sea a viper lies in wait,
Jörmungandr the serpent fuels his rage!
Ancestral hatred between monster and warrior,
A duel sealed by a harsh, dark fate.
The seas rise up, foaming with wrath,
But the god's fist aims his weapon true!
There is no creature in all of creation
That can escape a blow unleashed!
[Bridge / Breakdown]
[The tempo slows down brutally. Low, heavy guitars, deep male voices singing in unison]
Flash of light! Strike of iron!
Cast the demons into the depths of hell!
[Gradual acceleration of the drums]
When the rain falls heavy,
When the lightning is blinding,
Shout his name toward the stars,
Carved in blood, etched on your skin!
[Verse 4]
And when the day of Ragnarök comes,
And the shadow of the wolf enfolds the world,
Thor will stand on the front lines, Mjölnir in hand,
Defending man, king, and peasant!
His legend can never die,
As long as a single thunder can be heard!
[Final Chorus]
Thor! Son of Odin! Champion of the strong!
Strike with the hammer, awaken even the dead!
Thunder is your cry, lightning is your gift,
Before Mjölnir there is no mercy!
Crush the giants, protect the land,
You are the invincible god of this eternal war!
(Outro)
The hammer returns to the King's hand.
The skies calm, the rain falls upon me.
But the roar of the god remains carved in the wind...
(Deep spoken voice)
"As long as the earth shakes beneath the storm,
The Master of Thunder will be our shield."
