Translation of the song Ravens artist Baldrs Draumar

Njoggen wrâlden, njoggen nachten

Nine worlds, nine nights…

Kâld

Cold!

Der fleane twa ravens yn en yn

Two ravens fly there one by one...

Swart

Black.

Wûndere wjukken liede troch

Their majestic wings course through the

Loften

Skies.

Njoggen loften om ien grutte

Nine skies around one great

Beam

Tree.

Midgard, sjoch omheech, twa ravens befleane dyn loften

Midgard, look above! Two ravens fly over your skies!

Seine mei de jefte om de goadetaal te sprekken

A sign with the gift of the Gods’ language spoken!

De heimnis fan de wrâld flústerje sy yn Weda’s earen

They whisper the secrets of the world in Weda’s (Odin’s) ears,

Om sa de kommende dei wer út te fleanen

Of how they’ll fly out again on the coming day.

Trije woartels, trije boarnen

Three roots, three sources.

Libbensieren foar elts bloeiend leat

The treasures of life for each blooming twig.

It lot wurdt dêr spûn troch de trije Noarnen

Fate is spun there through the three Norns,

en Hugin en Munin, sy bringe dêr it nijs

and Huginn and Muninn, they bring the news there.

Hugin en munin, wêr bin jim no?

Huginn and Muninn, where are you now?

Tinzen en oantinken

Thoughts and memories,

Kom dochs wer by my werom

Come back to me again!
