Runaljod |
Brethren, lend thy ear |
Listen to my tale |
How I discovered |
The secrets of runes |
I hung for nine full nights |
On the windswept tree |
Sacrificed to Odin |
Myself to myself |
Depraved of water |
And bread for strength |
Pierced by a spear |
Hangs the one-eyed |
This son of Bestla and Borr |
Threefold the highest is he |
Tyr of the hanged man |
Ruler of Asgard |
Father to the slayer of giants |
Once gave his eye, a sacrifice |
So he might drink from Mimir’s well |
To master poetry and wisdom |
There I hung from Yggdrasil’s branch |
Reached for the runes and screamed with all my might |
Suffered for wisdom, fell from the tree |
Magic of runes, strong and stout staves |
Fell from the tree |
Fell from the tree |
The highest of Aegir |
That in Asgard dwell |
But with this wisdom |
Come frightful visions |
Of the sailing of Naglfar |
And Loki’s son |
Unchained at last |
Marching in Surtr’s wake |
For the gods are doomed |
Once the branches burn |
