Hakkerskaldyr - The Shieldformation

Skål steemers! I bring here Hakkerskaldyr, a song that seems to be part of a ritual in Norse mythology. Many must know it for the great strength that has, and capable of shivering many lovers of this rich culture.

The translation into English would be something like Shieldformation, that traditional wall of shields that the viking warriors do when they go to war, as in Bråvallaslaget, in this poem I posted a few days ago.

Below is the video, lyrics and translation of this great song.

Y! Ylir men
Ae! Aero their
Era mela os
Min warb naseu
Wilr made thaim
I bormotha hauni
Got nafiskr orf
Auim suimade
Foki afa galande
Hu! War!
Hu war opkam har a hit lot

Hey! Every men!
Hear our voices!
Listen to us now:
In thy hands is death
Thy people we shall slaughter
And any mercy is given
Fearless we are
Death makes us laugh
War is what we want
Thou! Dies!
In this battle thou shall dies.
