I am the God Thor
I am the War God
Here in my Northland
My fastness and fortress
Reign I forever!
Here amid icebergs
Rule I the nations
This is my hammer!
Giants and sorcerers
Cannot withstand it!
These are the gauntlets
Wherewith I wield it
And hurl it afar off
This is my girdle
Whenever I brace it
Strength is redoubled!
The light thou beholdest
Stream through the heavens
In flashes of crimson
Is but my red beard
Blown by the night-wind
Affrighting the nations!
Jove is my brother
Mine eyes are the lightning
The wheels of my chariot
Roll in the thunder
The blows of my hammer
Ring in the earthquake!
Force rules the world still
Has ruled it, shall rule it
Meekness is weakness
And strength is triumphant
Over the whole earth
Still it is Thor's Day!
I am the God Thor
I am the War God
Here in my Northlands
My fastness and fortress
Reign I forever!
Reign I forever!
Reign I forever!
Thonor forever!
From the poem "The Challange of Thor" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
