The is the chant she uses in the battle, I have a translation below!

The last few days had been a whirlwind of training and preparing for Loki to come, none of us were entirely sure of when it would happen, but for all of the three days, I was just hoping that it would happen soon. I created charms and taught the Dryads the spell they needed to know, I refined my song, preparing to fight an undetermined amount of souls.

When the chasm opened, it was like a powerful explosion occurred, and the entire area was washed in a pale green light, which nearly frightened away some of the Dryads until they realized what it was. We waited with bated breath for anything to happen, but when there was no activity in the first hour, we relaxed enough to prepare the final touches to our welcoming gift before anything happened with the tear.

The moment the first souls began flowing through the tear in realms, I dropped to my knees and had to force back nausea; if I had thought that the feeling here was bad before, it was nothing compared to this. Pure and unadulterated malice followed the first waves of souls into the land of the living, spreading through the air like a disease. If I hadn't had put up those wards, the people who were here would only have lasted a few minutes before needing to leave.

An arm wrapped around my waist and pulled me to my feet, dragging me back into the fight; I looked up and saw that Ban was the one who had helped me, and while he sported a carefree smile, his eyes showed me that he was completely serious. "Ah, is the little banshee being taken down already? Keep your chin up little one, if you drop now, we won't be able to fight against this army; this whole fight has only been made possible because of you."

I nodded weakly and shrugged his arm off me, though he stayed nearby to make sure I didn't fall again.

"I know, you just focus on what you need to do, and we might make it out of here alive." I took another step away from Ban and began the chant I had practiced earlier. It was written specifically to calm rouge souls, so they could be sent to the Necropolis without doing even more damage; I had changed it up a little so that instead of just calming the soul, it would immobilize it entirely.

(This is the translation for the chant which is the video!)

Love, let me home to my mother

Love, let me home to my mother

Darling, let me home to my mother

Love, let me home

to my mother

I only came for the cattle.

It was only last night

That I heard that my love was herding

And though you found me at the perimeter of the cattle fold

Love, let me home as you found me.

I was clambering up the dykes

And descending the ridges

When a friendly lad met me

And he did not enforce his friendship on me.

Though you were to give me cattle and sheep

Though you were to give me tethered horses

Though you were to give me that and men

Love, let me home as you found me.

My mother and father will chastise you

My clan and my relatives will chastise you

But my three brothers will kill you

If I don't return home as I came.

My mother promised me a gown
