Danheim Song Lyrics

Lyrics (From havamal / Old Icelandic + Runes)

Fé, úr, þurs, oss, reið, kaun, hagall, nauðr, íss, ár, sól, Týr, bjarkan, maðr, lögr, yr, Æsa.

138. Veit ek, at ek hekk vindga meiði á nætr allar níu, geiri undaðr ok gefinn Óðni, sjalfr sjalfum mér, á þeim meiði, er manngi veit hvers af rótum renn.

139. Við hleifi mik sældu né við hornigi; nýsta ek niðr, nam ek upp rúnar, æpandi nam, fell ek aftr þaðan.

English translation + Runes

Fé, úr, þurs, oss, reið, kaun, hagall, nauðr, íss, ár, sól, Týr, bjarkan, maðr, lögr, yr, Æsa.

138. I know I hung on the wind full tree all nine nights, with spear wounded and given to Óðinn, myself given to myself, upon that tree, that nobody knows from what root it ran.

139. They gave me no bread nor anything to drink; carefully I looked down, I picked up secrets, took them screaming, I fell again from there.

Lyrics (Danish)

Tungt og trægt
tungen løftes,
at løfte vægten med versets skat;
Odins tyvegods ikke let fundet,
tungt at slæbe fra sindets skjul.

English translation

Heavy and tired
Tongue lifted,
To lift the weight with the treasure of the verse;
Odins stolen goods
Not Easily found,
Heavy to tow
from the minds hiding.

Lyrics Danish

Vi er Vikinger, i nord vi sejler fra.
kyst til fremmed land, vi kæmper alle mand.
Æsir giv os mod, til valhal efter død.
i den mørke muld, vi skåler Frydefuldt

Lyrics Old Icelandic

Þat mælti mín móðir,
at mér skyldi kaupa fley ok fagrar árar,
fara á brott með víkingum,
standa upp í stafni, stýra dýrum knerri,
halda svá til hafnar höggva mann ok annan,
höggva mann ok annan.

Þél höggr stórt fyr stáli stafnkvígs á veg jafnan út með éla meitli andærr jötunn vandar,
en svalbúinn selju sverfr eirar vanr þeiri Gestils ölpt með gustum gandr of stál fyr brandi.

English translation (from Danish)

We are Vikings, from the north, we are sailing from.
From coast to foreign land, vi are figting every man.
Æsir give us currage, to Valhal after death.
In the dark soil, we cheer joyfully.

English translation (from Old Icelandic)

That said my mother,
that I should buy
fley and beautiful years,
go away with vikings,
stand up in the letter,
steer animals knierri,
keep going to the harbor
chop man and another,
chop a man and another.

It knocks a big steel head
pimple on the way evenly
out with a little girl
anderr jotunn vandar,
a cool selling
they swear their names
Gestils swallowed with gusts
gandr or steel fire brandi.

Lyrics (Danish)

Ni verdener står stille (så stille)
Bundet af livets træ,
kendt af de dødelige,
ved navnet Yggdrasil.

Hvert træ har sine ringe,
gamle historier fortæller.
Under skygge i træets dyb,
husker vi navnet yggdrasil.

Lyrics (Translated to English)

Nine worlds stand still (so still)
Bound by the tree of life,
Known by the mortals,
by the name Yggdrasil.

Each tree has its rings,
old stories they tell us.
In shadows of the depths of the tree,
we remember the name Yggdrasil.

Lyrics Icelandic

Stend ég við mitt vé
Er Aldagautur nálgast
grípur hann um mig
og í sömu andrá sé ég Hliðskjálf
Býður hann mér sæti
og ég sest

Ég sé níu rætur alls
ég sé vindinn reika
Falinn milli fjalla
elds og ísa

Ég sé Fegurð trjáa
ég sé Undur dýra
hljóð vængja
ást manna
hugsjón Ása
reiði Þursa
þrótt Vana
Styrk Dverga

English Lyrics

I stand by my shrine
as Aldagautur approaches
He grabs me
and in that moment I see Hliðskjálf

he offers me to sit
and I sit

I see the nine roots of all
I see the wind wander
hidden between mountains
fire and ice

I see the beauty of trees
I see the wonder of animals
Sounds of wings
Love of men
visions of the Æsir
the anger of Þursar
vitality of Vanir
strength of Dvergar

Lyrics Old Icelandic

Lýsi ég staðarhelgi, lýsi ég mannhelgi, lýsi ég blóthelgi.
Lýsi ég véböndum, lýsi ég griðum, lýsi ég sáttum.

Set ég grið og fullan frið,
Fégrið og fjörgrið

Heill dagr!
Heilir dags synir!
Heil nótt ok nift!
Óreiðum augum
lítið okkr þinig
ok gefið sitjöndum sigr

Heilir æsir!
Heilar ásynjur!
Heil sjá in fjölnýta fold!
Mál ok mannvit gefið okkr mærum tveim ok læknishendr, meðan lifum.

English Translation

I declare holy ground, I declare peace among men, I declare a sacred blót,
I declare union, I declare grace, I declare reconciliation.

And healing hands, life-long.

Lyrics (Old Norse)

Aldinn for-eldra, rísa upp fyr ek kaldr mold neðan.
þau er fremst um man, þá var roðinn Ár fólk.
Leiða oss til okkarr Æsir, segja frá vor forløg

English translation

Old ancestors rise from the cold dark soil.
Old tales I remember
blood-stained was the ground of people
Æsir lead us to the gods,
Tell of our fate

Lyrics (Old Norse)

Móðir girndar
ok ásæki,
Fögr sem nóttin,
í járnviði dvelr
þrjá risa ber hon
þrjá risa el hon

English translation

Mother of lust
and haunt
Beautiful as the night
In ironwood dwells
Three giants she births
Three giants she raises

Lyrics Danish

Hvo er den Mand,
som i vore Haller
vender sit Ord til os?
Ud du kommer
aldrig af vore Haller,
hvis ej du mon den viseste være.

Gagnråd hedder jeg.
Fra Gang er jeg nu kommen
törstig til dine Sale.
Længe jeg rejste
og længtes efter at brydes
som Gæst til din Gård, du Jætte.

Hvorfor, Gagnråd!
står du på Gulv og taler?
Gå til Sæde i Salen.
Vi vil da prøve,
hvo visest mon være,
Gæsten eller den gamle Taler.

Ringe Mand,
som til Rigmand kommer,
skal tale klogt eller tie.
Megen Snak
slet ham båder
