I am the God Thor, I am the War God, I am the Thunderer! Here in my Northland, My fastness and fortress, Reign I for ever! Here amid icebergs Rule I the nations; This is my hammer, Mjölner the mighty; Giants and sorcerers Cannot withstand it! These are my 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, Strength is triumphant Over the whole earth Still is it Thor’s-day. Thou art a God too, O Galilean! And thus single-handed Unto the combat, Gauntlet or Gospel, Here I defy thee!
