Hermod's ride to hel loke's treachery part i

[Hermod:]
"Ride Sleipner
Ride for all your worth
Faster then lightning,
To the dark realms of the world

Through valleys of darkness
On our way to Nifelheim
To the halls of Hel
Where my brother awaits

Wailing voices on the wind
Urging me to turn
Distant torture screams
Cold blue fires burn

I hear the sound of River Gjöll
Running cold and deep
It's golden bridge hangs in the dark
The bridge that Modgud keeps

Over the bridge, on through the night
Hel is getting near
There are the gates, towering high
Afflicting me with fear

In her hall, at the honour seat
My brother sits in pain
Pale and tortured Balder greats
Bound by invisible frozen chains

I have come to bring him back with me
The whole world mourns his death
Please set Balder free
Give him back his breath!"

[Hel:]
"If it's true, what you say to me
That the whole world mourns his death
If the whole world will weep,
I will give him back his breath."
