Hela

I Am Hel
(A Song of Solace)

Tune: "Skarazula Marazula" (15th century, Giorgio Mainerio)

I am Hel MP3 (0.6 MB) sung by me
Sheet Music written out by Raven Kaldera

I am Hel the Dark One, and I will get you all.

Every man and woman must come into my hall,

the young ones and the old ones, and I will not let you go,

even if all the worlds should weep for you.


I am Hel the Beautiful, be greeted and come in.

Enjoy my hospitality together with your kin.

Your ancestors are sitting next to Balder in the light,

I bid you welcome - I am Hel the Bright.


We greet you, our lady and mistress of eternity,

you will unite us with the ones who went before;

with our friends and families we keep forever company,

and we shall sing till sorrow is no more.
