Döttrar nio leda
Uti gråkall gryning
Dolda makter
I lönndom vaka
I grottors gemak
Ráns hemvist
Och jag vet
Hon mig vänta
Translation:
Daughters nine, lead
Into a gray-cold dawn
Hidden powers
Watches in secrecy
In the comfort of caves
Ráns home
And I know
She awaits me

Tvenne i natten
En kvinna så vacker
Kärlek hon mig skänker
I djupets dunkel hon mig dränker
Allting upphör
Hennes rygg var urgröpt
Jag lättar ankare
Från livets hamn
_________________
Two in the night
A woman so beautiful
She gives me her love
In the dark depths she drowns me
Everything ends
For her back was hollowed out
I lighten anchors
From the port of life

Av Visa Makter Skapt

I Vanahem han skaptes
av visa makter
och gavs som gisslan åt gudar;
i åldrarnes ände
skall han åter komma
hem till de visa vaner
Hell Njord!
_____
In Vanaheim he was created
by wise powers
and was given as a hostage to gods;
at the end of the ages
he shall come again
home to the wise vanir
Hell Njord!

Jörmungandr

Den folken frälsar
och fäller ormen
hov nu oxens
huvud på kroken
kring agnet gapar
den gudar hatar,
den kring världens rund
sig ringlar i djupet
Djärvt drog dristige Tor
etterormen upp å skeppsbord
Hammarn högg han
i hårets klippgrund
slog ovan i skallen
ulvens broder
isberg brakade
eldfjäll skakade
urgamla världen
av ångest skalv,
men hiskliga fisken
sank i havsens djup
_____________________________
He, who protects people
and kills the serpent,
hung on the hook
the head of the ox.
Against the bait gaped,
the one whom the gods hate,
as around the world
curls in the depths.
Boldly pulled
powerful Tor
the gleaming snake
up on the boat edge;
hair scales
with the hammer he struck,
the excessively ugly
the wolf's brother.
Icebergs broke
Fiery scales shook
the ancient world,
of anxiety trembling,
the horrible fish
sank into the depths of the sea

Klarälven

|

|
Ack, jag försitter
På Klarälvens strand
Tidens tand mig biter
En nomad i ingenmansland
Mitt anletes reflektion på ytan
Ack, så konturlöst
När ögonens regn falla
Ty bergen ej längre bär min sorg
________________________________
I've sat too long
On the banks of Klarälven
The teeth of time bites me
A nomad in no mans land
My facial reflection on the surface
Oh so contourless
As the rain of the eyes fall
Because the mountains no longer holds my sorrow

Veiðistafur
Lyckan är min
Veiðistafur
Jag drar dig in
På korpfjäderns spets
Dryper gärdsmygsblodet
Under segelhästens för
Verkar min blodröda tång
_________________________________________________________
Veiðistafur
The luck is mine
Veiðistafur
I pull you in
On the ravenfeathers tip
Drips wren's blood
Beneath the ships prow
My blood-red seaweed works

Bäckahästen

Ack, de gör en sista ritt
På stora hästen klädd i vitt
De rider ut ur livet sitt
I näckens å blir de tiden kvitt
En sista ritt de gör
I näckens å de dör
_____________
Alas, they make one last ride
On the big horse dressed in white
They ride out of their lives
In Näcken's stream, they step out of time
They do one last ride
In Näcken's stream they die

Trenne nätters väntan
Med trägen id jag söka
Strömkarlns läran
Bloddroppar röda
Bliva toner som dödar
____________________
For three nights I wait
With persistent will I seek
Strömkarlns teachings
Blood drops red
Becomes tones that kill

It is different than previous releases, nonetheless it is astonishing and beautiful homage to nature. One reproach, like both previous albums this one too flown by so quickly. Do yourself a favor and listen to this music in forest you like to visit.
