Wyrd of the Dead |
Wounded |
I hung on a wind-swept gallows |
For nights all of nine |
Pierced by a spear |
Odin |
Offered myself to myself |
Wisest know not |
From whence spring the roots |
I pledged to Odin |
A hanged mans gift |
Saw him hang nine days and nights |
Pain did blind his sacrifice |
More dead than alive |
Carve the runes the dead to speak |
Enlight the strong desert the weak |
The wyrd of the dead |
Suffer |
A sacrifice so profound |
They gave no bread |
They gave no mead |
Peered down |
I grasped the runes screaming of need |
I took them |
From that tree I fell |
I pledged to Odin |
A hanged mans gift |
Saw him hang nine days and nights |
Pain did blind his sacrifice |
More dead than alive |
Carve the runes the dead to speak |
Enlight the strong desert the weak |
The wyrd of the dead |
