- Comment if you'd like and hail to the Hammer.
Yea, the Faroese part in the beginning is as follows: Please note that this translation below might not be 100% correct.
"Silence, old legend, langauge of yore,
Vengeance and hatred named, envious fire.
On the battlefield, hope itself dies,
High before the gates of Hel, Garmurin* howls.
Wind-age*, wolf-age has come,
Axe/Beard-age*, Sword-age soon is gone.
Carry forth uniform, marked by many wars,
Coat of mail and shiny sword and ride forward to the field.
Come what must come, let everything go,
Long I've had this day hidden in my mind."
*Í Norrøna guðalæru er Garmurin ein hundur, sum verjur inngongdina til Helheimin.
In Norse mythology the "Garmr" is a hound, guarding the gate of Hel.
*Vøluspá er søgan um byrjanina til heimin og tá heimurin loksins kemur at enda.
Völuspá is the story of the creation of the world and its coming end. It mentions the wind-age and wolf-age, you can look it up on wikipedia or some better places of knowledge. :)
Rætting: Tað eigur at standa fornminnismál og ikki forminnismál. -_-
Tað er spell at sovorði slíkt skuldi gerast í einum teimum fyrstu orðinum...
![Tyr-The Lay of Thrym [Lyrics]](/img/n.gif)
This was the first song i listened to from Tyr. Best decision of my life
Third song I heard, after Hammer of Thor and Ride to Hel. Best decision of my life.
hold the heathen hammer high was my first
and it's absolutely the best choice :3
Turið Torkilsdóttir for me. I love vocal harmony.
You must hear Sinklars Visa
Lord of Lies was my first song c:
Translation for Intro... Your welcome.
Silence, ancient tales, the voices of ancient sites
Revenge and hatred mentioned, the fire of envy
Hope has died on battlefields
Garm barks loud before the gates of Hel
Wind-age, wolf-age has come
Axe-age, sword-age will soon be gone
Bring forth armour, marked by many battles
Chainmail and shiny sword and ride forth into the field
Face what may come, then let everything go
Long have I carried this day in my mind.
It is all a reference to Ragnarök, the wolf in chains is Fenrir, the dragon in the deep is the second son of Loki who fought Thor and Thor was only able to take 9 steps before collapsing after defeating the beast, the Earth will be green again and 2 humans survived and repopulated Earth, and an Eagle flew over a waterfall and hunted it's prey and the Gods who survived Ragnarök gathered and shared memories, whereas the worst place to be after Ragnarök is Hel(?) where a dragon would be destroying the corpses of the dead.
When all is good again, the dragon (with the fallen) will enter the world again, starting the cycle anew.
if tyr had it's own guitar hero... this song would be the end game song... considering the end is "Ragnarok"
Or the soundtrack from the cd called "The END"
Ragnarok is also the beginning tho
Nah too easy for the last song
Ragnarök is neither the end or a beginning. It's the culmination of deeds and ill-deeds; namely the deeds of the Aseir.
Proud to be Faroese
you should be! \m/
Danish*
+Torsvård *Faroese
+Torsvård It's really both
Looked into Norse mythology, and that shit just oozes awesomeness!!!
All mythology is awesome to me. But Norse and Celtic in particular speak to me me. I might be biased, being mostly Irish and Swedish Norwegian ancestry.
Yeah, your biased. I've got quite a bit of swede in me, and family has the nobility title over there in sweden. So, i'm biased too.
Norse myth is cool till ragnarok, that is shit
I actually like Ragnarok. It tells a story that all things must come to an end and that life will continue in our absence and Ragnarok will happen again bringing about the perpetual cycle of death and rebirth. And my chosen god is Tyr because he's the fucking man, so Ragnarok is a bitter sweet tale for me.@@MetalWolf47
Man, the entire middle section of this track puts chills down my spine. Every time.
Ok, wow... now that my head is still spinning from the annoyance below on several points. Back to the main point. I love this song INCLUDING the Faroese at the beginning! Heri Joensen and the other members of Tyr are beyond talented and really bring the culture and lore to light. Being of Norwegian decent as well as majoring in archeology and anthropology, I just love it!!! :)
I totally gree. There is a "call" through the bloodlines. I feel it seems as though it is specific for this time. Victory of the light brothers and sisters. Now is ragnarok. True ragnarok
Hail from Brazil
If I die, let me go to Valhalla so I may stand with my allies in the great battle that awaits us all at Ragnarok. No Jotun nor Dragur will shake us, and with swords in hand, we will stand firm, knowing we all die in vain, but we die fighting the enemy... And we die with honor
We will fight till the end when hammers break our bones and arrows dring in our chests!!
I'm sorry, but none of us is going there. We need to die fighting with sword or such real weapon to end up in Valhalla
Luhnge I know, but we're living in the world of gunpowder and ranged weapons. No chance that any commander will let us fight with a sword if any war comes up.
You neopagans make me lol......
Szymon Woźniak You could pull a Jack Churchill. Then again, he was a commander himself.
I missed this song so much
Banda fantástica!!!
*Grabs an Axe and a sword* Brothers, Ragnarok is upon us.
+Geeky Metalhead HAIL TO THE GODS !!! IM READY FOR RAGNAROK!
Yea, sucks ass that the gods will die
+Crazy Crow no. that is how things should be
Sucks that the rest of us are going to be following them as well when the continents flood
+Iordáin Breathnach we will die with honor and we will die for our gods
Merry Ragnarök!
VIKING METAL IS SO AWESOME!
So, how many here are heathens? Hail Thor!
Me. Hail all our gods and hold the heathen hammer high!
I’m here. :)

Excellent! Thank you Anna!
Skal! Hail to the true Gods
The best Tyr song I 've ever heard!
proud days to be a part of the Asa thanks for sharing =D
Son Fabulosos, LOS AMOOOO !!!
This Music is classic!!
Hail Tyr!! Great band!
Neither did I until I started listening to Týr. You're not alone on that one.
Never even heard of that language until now. Wow.
Heri,it is Masterpiece!
Shit, I was looking for Periphery and I found this. This is fucking tight.
Such a beautiful song
I hope my neighbors like Týr cause they're gonna listen to it now hahaha
This song would be so much better if it was all in faroese.
Yeah but I guess they had to switch to get more fancy rhymes..
I dono because i duno faroese
Why, because your english speaking ass has a superficial cultural fetish for words you can't understand, so the poet should limit themselves for you? Grow up.
@@shadowrunner138 No, It sounds more organic in their native tongue
The lyrics are simply poignant at this point - good to understand them.
Thanks ^^
i am from the faroe islands and i love this song. and if you love this band i would recommend checking out hamradun the old singer for tyr is in hamradun it is also a faroese band.
Awesome, I didn't know about that band until now
HAIL ODIN BROTHERS!!!!!!!!!
Hail!
This boost my spirit.
The start of this song always reminds me of Diablo 1 for some reason...
When i hear or read Scandinavian languages, a sense of VALOUR and HONOUR is felt !
Almost broke my neck headbanging to this..
Thank you vm.! (...from Hungary!)
Zu geil :-D
Ragnarok is yet upon us
This song fills me with a longing, a longing for something. I don't know what, but it makes me feel sad and manly at the same time.
Epic!
HAIL!
This song was perfectly thought through enough, and again, it's not like they were writing bomb defusing manual, they were writing a progressive metal song. I see where you're coming from, as I don't speak Faroese, but, more importantly, I think it sounds cool, so I enjoy the employment of the multilingual lyrics to add to the songs individuality. The beginning makes this song sound like a true old viking tale, and it transitions into what we can understand.
Right on @highmax 17! The only place for a warrior to go after the physical dying is to face the Second Death at Ragnarok. I swear to follow my liege lord Týr to the gates of hell, and there to die beside him fighting the hound of destruction. So ducking what if we're called to sacrifice our spirit- lives?! Our reward will be knowing that we restore the earth to her natural honor, the way it was always meant to be -- as Heri says, where eagles will soar over the green land and hunt beside the waterfalls.
F. Elaine Anderson it is spelt hel!
We don't claim him. I'm American and I came here because I appreciate the beauty of Faroese
EPIC!
ah old gold track
If you have ever played the game 'telephone' you can see how a story can grow and change over time and transmittance. Snorri was trying to take the stories and make them fit within his own limited scope of cosmology while trying to not get burned at the stake for heresy by writing down the mythology of pagan gods. He was not interested in preserving the lore. He wanted to preserve the style of skaldic poetry that was rapidly dying out at the time.
(Part 3)
Nice song!
Hail Odin! I am a Celtic Heathen. Hail Thor!
i fell in love with this song. i thought about looking up what it means in english but i desided to learn the language but i got a long way to go lol
Hail from miklagaard!
Doesn't Skeggold mean Axe-age?
Yes, it does... Skálmöld means "Sword-age"
I thought I was the only one!
Guardian of the Fenris wolf mighty Tyr.
Well said
amen brother, amen
Góður føroyskur málmur.
good lord i love that game
good song and band!
Tyr is not Odin's son. Fenrir does not swallow the sun, that is Skoll. Fenrir is the son of Loki & the Angrboda. The Aesir raised Fenrir amongst them in Asgard. When he became too big they began to try & find ways to bind him. After 2 tries they asked the dwarves for the rope that is described below. Fenrir would not at first allow it as he smelled magic. Only after Tyr agreed to place his hand in the wolf's mouth would he relent. The rope held, Fenrir could not free himself, Tyr lost his hand.
Protip: stop taking drugs, get sober.
The ending ( 5:39 ) is the best part, with its heavy beat. I love this song.
Sweden here, hail to our real claimors and ancestors. Hail Valhall.
i understand allot of this since im icelandic and this is very similar
i love this"römtömtöm smörrebröt"^^^^^^^^ the best band i've heard the last years
Excellent.......good heavy beyond England and USA...
The lyrics translated: Bring forth armour, marked by many battles
Chainmail and shiny sword and ride forth into the field
Face what will come, then let everything go
Long have I carried this day in my mind.
how many songs are on this album? i can only find two. this and Valhalla
love föreyjen language, i understand the lyrics (in video) 100% Týr forever!!! fróm iceland
Right, and they were.
You know iirc so many think of viking axes and think "COOL!", but the truth is the axe and spear were (relatively) common mans weapons, men of stature in the nordic lands had custom swords made for them, even named them and wrote poems and sagas about them
I want this played at my funeral
@MrRiverman81 so the language they use in some songs is their islands language? i looked a little at their homeland, looks like a pretty awesome place.
maybe 2021 ? :))
hail from anglesey
still nice
I think that has been the first time that I have ever been referred to as 'sir' on the internet. Hell, I don't ever remember being called that, internet or otherwise. :P
no problem sir
In addition to being much older than the information in the Prose Edda where Týr is listed as Óðinn's son, the compilation of the Poetic Edda that we commonly accept today is NOT what is actually put together in the manuscripts extant. Baldr's Drapa, for example, is not included in the manuscripts used to reproduce the Poetic Edda. It is in a different manuscript all together.
(Part 5)
hail
Oh, this hurts my head. Norse Lore is not only part of my faith but my area of scholastic study as well.
Týr has been portrayed as both a son of Óðinn and a son of Hymir. Archaelogical evidence points to a time where he was considered the father of the pantheon of gods rather than Óðinn.
(Part 1 of response)
Majority yes but there are still the few of us that do not obsess about ourselves.
The bands name is named after the son of odin TYR his name is pronounced like Tear. tyr had his arm bitten off by fenrir the wolf, one day fenrir the wolf would swallow the sun and cause ragnarok but to prevent that they got the dwarves to make a magic chain to hold the wolf in place the chain was made out of things like the footstep of a cat, the roots of a mountain, a woman's beard, the breath of fishes, the sinews of a bear, and a bird's spittle. Norse mythology is mental in a good way
looks like a fun language to learn
The intro always makes me want to play Diablo 2.
of course. :D
I don't think of any games... i think of history.
Týr's name is sometimes linked to that of Teutates/Tuisto on the continent and is placed in equal if not greater status to the god that became known as Odin. To follow along societal rules of leaders not being blemished or disabled, the moment that Týr no longer had one of his hands made him unable to rule. For the benefit of the tribe and mankind he made this sacrifice. If you remember, Týr sent Thor to his mom and dad's house in Jotunheim in search of Hymir's cauldron.
(Part 6)
as a pagan/witch and viking descendant, i fucking love this song and band! thanks for sharing!
Which variety of Templar?
I have been trying to learn (kinda OK) how to speak faroese and from what i can tell from all that i have translated/read the start is weird cuz Tøgn translates (according to websters online multi langual dictionary) silence Gomul (from a lesson i am reading) is female and (same as Tøgn) søgn is legend? well i'm not sure and i dont know if they have more meanings that one
is there a English version?
The lyrics were created essentially being in what they were sung us, not to show it in a specific language. If you wanted to sing the song, this is the video you would watch. Not one showing the faroese part translated into english, not the one showing the english part translated into faroese. Those are translations, these are lyrics. Last time I checked lyrics was what a person sung, not what they would be singing in another language.
Faroese. An old and nice language that we in Scandinavia once spoke. Or another dialect of Norwegian/Swedish/Danish.
Ragnorak has not come upon us yet brothers, does Thor not still light up the sky?
