Followed by the Raven by Taunusheim Lyrics
Followed by the raven
By rain, by wind with might
Followed to the mountain
To Raven-Forest-Ever-Night
Raven the unknown being
The mighty beating wings
Black eyes are always seeing
The real and unreal things
The spirit of the black bird
Knows to fly between water and sky
The spirits of the black birds
Are screaming from the halls of valhall
Look up to the snowy forest
Which is to see in the great white hills
Flying down a creature to the frozen lake
Croaking loud it is singing his hymn
Fog is stroking meadows and the trees
No more living are now to see
The gliding raven is looking to his fellow
The gods called him Munin
Night by night the ones flying to north and south
The other to east and west
Odin is sitting on his wooden throne
Hoping they will come back
No one could ever take his greatness
So often they had tried
They called him bird of death
And tried to seek his might
But they never reached their aim
He's still what he had always been
The bird of strength, the bird of wisdom
The black bird of the north
By rain, by wind with might
Followed to the mountain
To Raven-Forest-Ever-Night
Raven the unknown being
The mighty beating wings
Black eyes are always seeing
The real and unreal things
The spirit of the black bird
Knows to fly between water and sky
The spirits of the black birds
Are screaming from the halls of valhall
Look up to the snowy forest
Which is to see in the great white hills
Flying down a creature to the frozen lake
Croaking loud it is singing his hymn
Fog is stroking meadows and the trees
No more living are now to see
The gliding raven is looking to his fellow
The gods called him Munin
Night by night the ones flying to north and south
The other to east and west
Odin is sitting on his wooden throne
Hoping they will come back
No one could ever take his greatness
So often they had tried
They called him bird of death
And tried to seek his might
But they never reached their aim
He's still what he had always been
The bird of strength, the bird of wisdom
The black bird of the north
