The Rootless Tree Falls
Come Easter,
Come dawning day,
Come, fathers and mothers of
High lineages,
Come roosters into the three worlds.
Come all-father Odin,
Come Frigg, my mother
Come, wise vanar
Come ancient thurses.
If the seeds are fruit,
Sing the song
That once gave life.Standing ash tree
Is called Yggdrasil.
Enthroned evergreen
Over Urd’s well
Hear me all
Sons of Heimdall!
Stand up from your sleep,
Give strength to the roots!
Sharpen the oldest
Of serpents that
Gnaw in the ground.
Three norns I bid,
that you shall spin life.
Three norns I bid,
that you shall twine life.
Three norns I bid,
that you shall bind life
… bind to the roots…
Æsir, norns,
wise vanirs,
thurse maidens,
yearning Valkyries,
Elves, dwarves,
Goddesses and witches.
High protectors
of Yggdrasil.
