lyrics

For þrea nydum we cwelaþ unnendre heortan
irfe-weardness is sylfra blod
Woden þara hæþenra God

When we've got Demons as our leaders
If we let them they'll deceive us
Take our hearts and they will bleed us
Dry of everything we are
We must take sword and axe and spear
Drive out weakness drive out tears
No more running no more fears
If we want to keep our home
If it is we want to keep our home

The Gods are with us in the trees
They haunt the mountains and the seas
They are in there rocks and in the mud
They are in our hearts and in your blood
Air above us is our breath
Land beneath us is our bread
Night surrounding is our test
The fight before us is our death

Wassail Home

Earth othala
Wind othala
Fire othala
Water othala
Home othala roots othala

Hail to Woden hail all Father
Hail to Thunor God of thunder
Hail to Frigg Goddess mother

Hail to Woden hail to Frigg
Hail to Thunor, Tiu ond Ing

We spent this year's summer holiday in Iceland and so I collected some indie, rock, pop and soft metal albums for the three week round trip. VEVAKI became the main soundtrack for the darker days, when clouds, wind and rain in the mountains or at the sea made the amazing landscape even more dramatic and beautiful. When we listen today to dark folk like "Heimdalagaldr" or "Jötnablót" our thoughts go back to Iceland! H.L.
