Wardruna – Odal (English Translation) lyrics
We are an old tree
With freshly sprung buds
Towards the sun we reach
To forward grow
Listen!
Far below in the roots
And in the growth-rings
The old ones are chanting
Listen!
Far below in the roots
And in growth-rings
In the bark there are wounds
Which bear witness of honor
Which bear witness of shame
Some sting more than others
Look into my eyes
And do understand
Remember that all shall pass
And night shall come
Your birthright I offer
It’s there if you want it
And nowhere will go
Heavy to carry
Don’t take too much to bear
Deep in the earth
Direction from roots
When the storms are raging
They creakingly sing
For each and every sprout
We are taller and deeper
Odal
With freshly sprung buds
Towards the sun we reach
To forward grow
Listen!
Far below in the roots
And in the growth-rings
The old ones are chanting
Listen!
Far below in the roots
And in growth-rings
In the bark there are wounds
Which bear witness of honor
Which bear witness of shame
Some sting more than others
Look into my eyes
And do understand
Remember that all shall pass
And night shall come
Your birthright I offer
It’s there if you want it
And nowhere will go
Heavy to carry
Don’t take too much to bear
Deep in the earth
Direction from roots
When the storms are raging
They creakingly sing
For each and every sprout
We are taller and deeper
Odal
