Son of Odin Son of Frigg Father of Forsetti Brother to Thor Nightmares of death cloud my dreams Causing fear to set in Odin rides the might Sleipnir To the underworld Consulting a dead Cirrus Who tells a tale of their son's doom Fearing for the life of her beloved son Frigg traversed throughout the nine realms Making all in existence swear an oath Never harm Baldr All give their word, but the mistletoe For this creature is far too young Loki departs out of jealousy To find the young shrub Fastening it to a spear He gave the weapon to Hjord Unbeknownst to the blind god And ignorant to Loki's scheme He threw the spear at Baldr Thus his life came to an end Knowing that this is the first sign of Ragnarok The gods unable to speak They tremble with anguish, anger and fear Frigg composes herself to ask the gods Please ride to Hel and ask what it will take To have his soul set free Hermond rode nine nights Through dark thick valleys With all eight hooves pounding He crossed the river Gjold Begging and pleading with Hel To release Baldr's soul She said she would under one condition Make all creatures cry for him All creatures, gods and elves Cried and wept for Baldr Except the wicked witch Thokk Asking why she should cry Unbeknownst to Hermond This was indeed Loki in disguise So he gave up the cause & returned To Valhalla defeated Sitting in Hlidskalf Odin sees all Loki won't escape his fate So they all swore an oath The gods begin the hunt Chasing him into a dismal cave As the other chase his sons And seize the traitor's kin Drawing out Nervi's entrails They bound Loki to three rocks Skadi carried a vile snake And fastened it to the stalactites To forever drip venom Into his eyes Writing in pain All of Yggdrasil quakes and trembles
