Hel, the enigmatic ruler of Helheim, presides over the realm of the dead in Norse mythology. As the daughter of Loki, she is depicted with a dual appearance: half of her face is strikingly beautiful, while the other half is deathly and decayed. Hel governs the spirits of those who did not die in battle, offering a stark contrast to the valorous halls of Valhalla. Join us as we explore the chilling domain of Hel and uncover the mysteries of this powerful and somber goddess.
Lyrics
In shadows deep, where silence dwells,
Beneath the earth, in darkened wells,
A queen of death, with eyes so cold,
Her tale of sorrow, now unfolds.
With half a face of living light,
The other dark, eternal night,
She guards the dead, in endless sleep,
In Hel's embrace, the silence deep.
Embrace of Hel, dark and grim,
In her realm, the light grows dim,
Where shadows rule and spirits weep,
The goddess calls, in endless sleep.
From frozen wastes and icy tombs,
She gathers souls in endless gloom,
No joy, no light, no hope remains,
In Hel's domain, where sorrow reigns.
With half a face of living light,
The other dark, eternal night,
She guards the dead, in endless sleep,
In Hel's embrace, the silence deep.
[interlude]
Embrace of Hel, dark and grim,
In her realm, the light grows dim,
Where shadows rule and spirits weep,
The goddess calls, in endless sleep.
In the halls of the dead, her whispers flow,
A queen of shadows, where cold winds blow,
With iron will and heart of stone,
Hel reigns supreme, on her darkened throne.
Embrace of Hel, dark and grim,
In her realm, the light grows dim,
Where shadows rule and spirits weep,
The goddess calls, in endless sleep.
In the twilight's end, her legend grows,
In the hearts of mourners, her power flows,
Hel, the dark, forever hailed,
In endless night, her spirit prevailed.
