When I still ran free in Asgard, and we were worlds apart —
I could not hold you in my arms, so I held you in my heart —
I lov’d you with a love so deep, they make no words to say —
I lov’d you in a time when men were young, as I love you still today —
You brought a light to darkness, that I had held inside so long —
You gave meaning to the words, and music to the song —
The sun and moon shone brighter, for they cast their light on you —
And I each day grew calmer, for what the world might do —
I cared no more for destiny, or war, or the evil that gods and men may see —
My thoughts drifted to serene and peaceful times, with you so near to me —
But, when they took me from you, and chained me out of fear —
My hatred grew a thousand fold, without your voice to hear —
Sons light no longer warmed me, as Mani no longer brought me sleep —
And the only thought that kept me was the day I would see them weep —
I will take from them their light, as they have taken mine —
And they will be in darkness, with no  warmth to feel or find —
I will take from them their king of kings, to which they kneel and pray —
Their pleas and sobs be answered not, when on my ears they lay —
And after I have devoured all that laid or came into my path —
And they cry and suffer, for waking up my wrath —
I will leave them then, cold and in the dark alone —
To see if they can bear one tenth the pain my heart alone has known —
