Through Nifelheim's eternal night
A trek of fear and dread
The keeper of the well to find
The wanderer walks ahead
Dressed in grey he struggles on
Through ice and piercing wind
His weary legs drag along
For the price at journey's end
By the root of Yggdrasil
Sits the watcher of the well
Oden offers his appeal
But the man is not compelled
Fill the Gjallarhorn
With water from the pool
Let me drain it down
And wisdom fill my soul
Fill the Gjallarhorn
With water from the pool
Let me drain it down
And wisdom fill my soul
The guardian of memories
Gave his head one shake
Seldom does a silent man
Make any grave mistakes
Mimr's face was hard and stern
He would not be swayed
He didn't move, he didn't turn
And Oden felt dismayed
"Just one drink from your well
One drink and I'll be wise
Ask of me what you will
There must be a price!"
Fill the Gjallarhorn
With water from the pool
Let me drain it down
And wisdom fill my soul
Fill the Gjallarhorn
With water from the pool
Let me drain it down
And wisdom fill my soul
Fill the Gjallarhorn
Fill the Gjallarhorn
Fill the Gjallarhorn
Fill the Gjallarhorn
Oden stared into Mimr's eyes
His face could not be read
Finally he broke a smile
And then Mimr said
"For a drink from my well
Your eye is my price"
Oden showed a steady hand
Then calmly he said
"Give me a knife"
Fill the Gjallarhorn
With water from the pool
Let me drain it down
And wisdom fill my soul
Lift the Gjallarhorn
Drink and you'll be wise
Wisdom comes to those
Who will sacrifice
Fill the Gjallarhorn
Fill the Gjallarhorn
Fill the Gjallarhorn
Fill the Gjallarhorn
The lyrics GJALLARHORN of AMON AMARTH is also present in the album The allfather awakens (2026)
Amon Amarth è una band di melodic death metal svedese proveniente da Tumba, fondata nel 1988. Il nome della band deriva da Amon Amarth, un'alternativa al nome del Monte Fato, la montagna vulcanica presente nell'universo immaginario di J.R.R. Tolkien, la Terra di Mezzo. Dal 2009 la band è sotto contratto con Metal Blade Records e ha pubblicato sette album in studio, un EP, un DVD e sette video musicali. Amon Amarth è nota per le sue melodie epico-nordiche, i testi ispirati alla mitologia scandinava e l'energia bruciante dei concerti. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si possono citare "Twilight of the Thunder God", "Guardians of Asgaard" e "Runes to My Memory". L'album "The Pursuit of Vikings" (2008) è considerato uno dei loro lavori più importanti.
