The song is inspired from the Norse myth of Fenris. Eldest of Loki's offspring, Fenris is a giant black wolf that is destined to kill Odin at the battle of the end of the world, fitting for the closing song of the album.
lyrics
Intro
The seed ov Loki
Father of mischief
Born decimation
I, the Fenris-wolf
Trans
Enslaved by mighty Odin
Cast to Asgard to seek allegiance.
Verse 1
Alas! I have grown too large for the immortals. They fear the presence of
I! They pathetically bind thy being with Laeding. A stretch tears it in
Two! Not even the strongest Droma stands my strength. Burst to Piec-
es! Fenrir! Can not be contained!
Chorus
As Skoll and Hati pursues (sun and moon)
I rot 'til earth's curfew (the end nears soon)
My vengeance strikes at this hour (crush divinity)
When sun and moon are devoured (even this treachery)
Trans
Desperately the gods bring Gleipner.
Verse 2
An obvious enchanted rope,
I agree on condition
Tyr's hand be placed,
in my jaws of famine
Betrayed, his fist I feed
Tossed to abyss of the sea
Howl stopped by sword drawn
My blood, the river Von.
Chorus
As Skoll and Hati pursues (sun and moon)
I rot 'til earth's curfew (the end nears soon)
My vengeance strikes at this hour (crush divinity)
When sun and moon are devoured (even this treachery)
Bridge
The sun is no longer!
The stars are falling from the sky!
Gotterdammerung destroyed Gleipner!
The Fenris-wolf has returned!
Outro
Ragnarok! Hell is here!
Fenris released! Gods in fear.
The earth is split. The sea is boiled.
Loki rises! On Nagilfar.
His seed below! Mouth spread wide!
A blackened hole! Devours Odin!
Consumed it all! From earth to sky!
The Fenris-wolf! Belts his final cry.
