    TEXT (TRANSLATION BELOW):
    Hlióðs bið ec allar helgar kindir
    meiri oc minni mögo Heimdalar.
    Vildo at ec Valföðr
    vel fyrtelia forn spioll fira
    þau er fremst um man.
    Ec man iotna ár um borna
    þá er forðom mic foedda höfðo.
    Nío man ec heima nío íviði
    miotvið maeran fyr mold neðan.
    Ár var alda þar er Ymir bygði
    vara sandr né sær né svalar unnir
    iorð fannz æva né upphiminn
    gap var ginnunga enn gras hvergi.
    Áðr Burs synir bioðom um ypþo
    þeir er miðgarð maeran scópo.
    Sól scein sunnan á salar steina
    þá var grund gróin groenom lauki.
    Sól varp sunnan sinni mána
    hendi inni hoegri um himinioður
    sól þat né vissi hvar hon sali átti
    stiornor þat né visso hvar þær staði átto
    máni þat né vissi hvat hann megins átti.
    Þá gengo regin öll á röcstóla
    ginnheilog goð oc um þat gættuz:
    nótt oc niðiom nöfn um gáfo
    morgin héto oc miðian dag
    undorn oc aptan árom at telia.
    Þrír qvómo ór því liði
    öþgir oc ástgir æsir at húsi.
    Fundo á landi lítt megandi
    Asc oc Emblo ørlöglausa.
    Önd þau né átto óð þau né höfðo
    lá né læti né lito góða.
    Önd gaf Óðinn óð gaf Hoenir
    lá gaf Lóðurr oc lito góða.
    Asc veit ec standa heitir Yggdrasill
    hár baðmr ausinn hvítaauri.
    Þaðan koma döggvar þærs í dala falla
    stendr æ yfir groenn Urðar brunni.
    Þaðan koma meyiar margs vitandi
    þriár ór þeim sæ er und þolli stendr.
    Urð héto eina aðra Verðandi
    - scáro á scíði - Sculd ina þriðio.
    Þær lög lögðo þær líf kuro
    alda bornom ørlög seggia.
    TRANSLATION:
    Attention I ask from all the sacred people, greater and lesser, the offspring of Heimdall. Odin, you wished that I should declare the ancient histories of men and gods-those which I know.
    I, born of giants, remember them who nurtured me then.
    I remember nine worlds, and nine roots, and the mighty Measuring Tree down below the earth.
    In ancient times when Ymir lived, there was no sand nor sea nor cool waves.
    Earth was nowhere nor the sky above, chaos yawned, grass was nowhere there.
    First the sons of Bur brought up the earth, the glorious ones who shaped the world between.
    The Sun shone from the south on the ground of stones, then the soil was grown over with green plants.
    From the south, Sun, companion of the Moon, threw her right hand 'round the edge of the heaven, Sun did not know where her hall might be, the stars did not know where their place might be, Moon did not know what power he had.
    Then all the Powers went to the thrones of fate and considered this. To night and her children they gave names: morning they named and midday, afternoon and evening, to reckon up the years.
    Three Aesir, strong and loving, came to the Sea.
    They found on land Ash and Embla, capable of little, lacking fate.
    They had no spirit, no life, neither warmth nor voice, nor fresh complexions.
    Life gave Odin, spirit gave Hænir, warmth gave Lodur, and fresh complexions.
    I know that an ash-tree stands, called Yggdrasill, a high tree, soaked with shining loam. From there come the dews which fall in the valley, ever green, it stands over the well of Fate.
    From there come three wise young women, from the lake which stands under the tree.
    Fated one is called, Becoming another, the third Must-Be, they carved runes on the wood.
    They set down laws, they chose lives for the sons of men, the fates of men.

    This vocal easyness and brilliance at the same time as the gravity of text - fantastic!🤩

    A riveting performer in person. I have heard her twice with Sequentia. This music taps into a source that is otherwise typically not available.

    Sure its a beautiful song sung beautifully...I just wanted to comment on the video...If you feel depressed sad or lonely, any feeling that leaves you longing....Put your hands in the dirt, plant a flower vegetable or tree, pull some weeds, feel it smell it, the soil is good for you! Long and good health to you!
