Lo, gjør der jeg ser min far.
Lo, gjør der jeg ser min mor, mine søstre og mine brødre.
Lo, gjør der jeg ser ledningen av mitt folk tilbake til å begynne.
Lo, de kaller til meg.
De byr meg tar mitt sted på Asgard i hallene av Valhalla,
Hvor den modige kan leve for evig.
Lo, there do I see my father.
Lo, there do I see my mother, my sisters and my brothers.
Lo, there do I see the line of my people back to the beginning.
Lo, they do call to me.
They bid me take my place on Asgard in the halls of Valhalla,
Where the brave may live forever.
Respectfully, Ned.

Hvil i fred Gunnar Sønsteby!
Dette er ufatterlig trist.
Rest in peace Gunnar..
Hvil i fred, du var den største blant gigantene.
It is always a sad occasion when we loose another member of the resistance.
But look at the bright side, he lived a long, and presumably happy, life after the war + he lived longer than most of his generation. He will be greatly missed.
Another brave man gone to rest. What a debt we all owe these people.
R.I.P. Sir.

The life that I have
Is all that I have
And the life that I have
Is yours.
The love that I have
Of the life that I have
Is yours and yours and yours.
A sleep I shall have
A rest I shall have
Yet death will be but a pause.
For the peace of my years
In the long green grass
Will be yours and yours and yours.
