Oh Warfather on high I am calling you from the battlefield And as I take my last breath, I call for the mightiest of miracles For none but the brave, be he king or a slave With a pounding heart in his chest, Will be worthy to rise and with the Valkyries fly And ride to the ancient Valhalla Oh Warfather on high Listen to my prayer I lived my life by your rules Oh let death cover me now For none but the brave, be he king or a slave With a pounding heart in his chest Will be worthy to rise and with the Valkyries, fly And ride to Valhalla of old
[Chorus] With the Valkyries, ride over the battlefield Ride your horses and come to me I'm waiting for you to take my soul, high in the sky to Valhalla of old Valkyries, ride over the battlefield I'm dying and glad to bleed Because I know today I will take my place with the heroes In Valhalla of old For none but the brave, be he king or a slave With a pounding heart in his chest, Will be worthy to rise and with the Valkyries fly And ride to Valhalla of old [Chorus] With the Valkyries, ride over the battlefield Ride your horses and come to me I'm waiting for you to take my soul, high in the sky to Valhalla of old Valkyries, ride over the battlefield I'm dying and glad to bleed Because I know today I will take my place with the heroes In Valhalla of old In The Halls of Valhalla I finally took my place With my sword and my shield, I enter Odin's realm I'm an immortal spirit now with a heart made of steel With the gods on high forever, I will live and laugh at the Fears of man

PART I - IV - from 1849 to 1850s - The Full Series Opening in 1849, Richard Wagner is a respected composer living in Dresden, where he works as royal court conductor for the King of Saxony, Friedrich August II, and he is trying to arrange the first performance of his recently composed opera Lohengrin. Although his wife, Minna, enjoys their life and status, Wagner is bored with his work for the ageing king and spends most of his time writing revolutionary pamphlets against the establishment and aristocracy. Eventually, the May Uprising breaks out and Wagner becomes an important figure behind it. When Saxon and Prussian troops crush the uprising, Wagner becomes a wanted man and is forced to flee to Zürich. In the 1850s, Wagner's health deteriorates and he has to be cured in a sanatorium, where he reads Arthur Schopenhauer's work Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung. At his return, Mathilde Wesendonck, the wife of wealthy silk merchant Otto Wesendonck, becomes yet another one of his patrons and offers him the cottage on her estate as his residence. Once installed in the cottage, Wagner begins a passionate correspondence with Mathilde, which upsets both Mathilde's husband, Otto, and Wagner's wife, Minna, who seeks solace in increasing amounts of laudanum. Wagner, who starts composing Tristan und Isolde for Mathilde, is also visited by his good friend Hans von Bülow, and his new bride Cosima, Liszt's daughter. After a while, Minna works up the courage to confront Wagner and Mathilde about their correspondence.
