Steady he, old Väinämöinen
Seer eternal, everlasting
Rise to glory, young Cú Chulainn
In the battle never-ending

Take me away, proud valkyrjur
To the hall where Odin waits
Where the einherjar will fight
When Surtr sets the world ablaze

Take me back to a time long ago
When the gods ruled over this land
When storms raged and thunderbolts rained down
From Jupiter's mighty hand

When the arrows of Artemis flew
'Cross the bounds of time and space
And the mighty Minotauros fell
In the challenge Hēraklēs faced
This is basically my love song to mythology. I just love all those myths and legends, and this just came to my head one day. It's still not finished, and won't be for a while, but I wanted to put it up here to let you guys see it.

If you didn't know, by the way, Cú Chulainn is pronounced "Koo kullen".
