(turn turn)
From the mound of my kin¹,
I pulled up the words
Dug the songs
up from the earth
Wonderful tunes
rode the winds
Wardens of fate
bid me visit
bid me view,
my own thread,
in the web of NornsThe loom is set
with threats of fate
mighty rhymes,
strengthen bonds
whirlwind,
bound into spirits
Life and Fortune
bred by their wordsAs you saw your first day
As you draw your first breath
Gathered around, stood nine norns
They wound and weave wind to lifeThere you laid in your mother's arms,
bonded by a navel chord
They switched it with a kind thread
And into it spun, life and fortuneThe maidens went upon the family mound
Danced over elves and dead
The wind is pulling them playfully
It's this wind that shall follow youNine Norns - rise up
wove and wound - fateOn behalf of my child, I offer gifts
So none are weaving with ill will
By stick, stone and sorcerous distance
They spin your fate without ill intentNine Norns - hear me
guard my path
and lead with alleviating hands
and in healing footstepsbreathe in,
thoughts vanish
breathe out
release the fear
In every breath
the will grow
The heart pounds
I see wide and clearly(wind in memory)
Come wind into memory
(wind in mind)
Come wind in at least(In my courage)
Into the growing will
(In my will)
Into taming rhymes
(let it free)
It kindles a storm
(let it fly)
that strangles illness and sorrow(I become whole / healed)
You become whole / healed
(I am whole / healed)
You are whole / healedI become whole / healed
I am whole / healed(turn, turn)
Now, the norns
have weft their tune
Their song stills,
and with it, the wind
Gifts were given
to those who listened
Here I stood
on holy grounds
and this old memory
is leaving meleaving me
leaving me

Drug eg ordi
Leita songar
Oops or jordi
Dreiv på vindar
Vacre viser

Baud meg vitje
Baud meg sja
Min own tråd
I NornespåRend he even
Med ørlogstrådar
Ram rim
Magna banda
Kvervelvindar
Hapti hugar
Liv og lagnad
Ordi avlarSay du din fyrste dag
Drog firste andedrag
The omkring stod nornar ni
Vinda vevja, vinda til livLåg you i favn åt mor
Knytta i ei navlesnor
Byte den med ættarband
Liv og lagnad, i threw itMøyer rises on ættarhaug
Dansa yver alv and draug
Vinden Leiker, i møyer dreg
Vinden som vil fylgje degNornar never rise fram
Vov and tied lagnadFor min ung, eg gåver baud
Så ingen vov med ilske naud
Ved stokk ved stone ved trolletein
Spin egg lagnad utan mineNornar never, høyr meg
Before min veg
For med lindrande hand
I look forward to footballAndar inn, tankar svinn
Andar ut, reidsle rinn
Kvart eit drag, viljen veks
Hjarte sler, vidt eg ser(Vind I had)
Kom vind i had
(Vind i hugen)
Come on, I hug(I mean mot)
Vilje som veks
(I min vije)
I read verse
(Sleep the fri)
Kveikjer a storm
(Lar det fara)
The kveler sott and care(I do it well)
You trust

You he healedEg trust
Eg he is safe(vendum, vendum)
No hev nornar
Vevd si vise
Songs quietly

Gåver gjevne
Til the som lytta

Gamalt love
