Valhalla

The God Loki is one of the most intriguing God’s in Norse mythology. There is a lot of debate how to depict Loki exactly, but one of the meanings of his name can be interpreted as ’The end’’

Lyrics (Old Norse)

Loftr, um langan veg ásu at biðja,
at mér einn gefi mæran drykk mjaðar.

x4
Loki laufeyjarson, Loki

Sessa ok staði velið mér sumbli at 
eða heitið mik heðan.

x4
Loki laufeyjarson, Loki

Heilir æsir, heilar ásynjur

x4
Loki laufeyjarson, Loki

x4
Loki laufeyjarson, Loki 
Loki laufeyjarson, Loki

-

I, Lopt, from a journey long,
To ask of the gods, that one should give 
Fair mead for a drink to me

x4
Loki son of Laufey, Loki

At your feast a place and a seat prepare me 
Or bid me forth to fare.

x4
Loki son of Laufey, Loki

Hail the Gods, Hail the Goddesses

x4
Loki son of Laufey, Loki

x4
Loki son of Laufey, Loki 
Loki son of Laufey, Loki

Sól

Loki

The song ‘’Ginnungagap’’ tells the story of the creation of all living matter. Before the beginning there was only a big yawning void called Ginnungagap. In the northern part of Ginnungagap lays the cold Nilfheim and in the south the heat of Muspelheim. The process of life began when Nilfheim and Muspelheim met in the middle of Ginnungagap.

Lyrics in Old Norse

Ár var alda þar er Ýmir bygði
Vara sandr né sær né svalar unnir
Jörð fannsk æva né upphiminn 
Gap var ginnunga, en gras hvergi

Sól varp sunnan, sinni mána
Hendi inni hœgri um himinjódyr
Sól þat ne vissi hvar hon sali átti
Máni þat ne vissi hvat hann megins átti 
Stjörnur þat ne vissu hvar þær staði áttu

-

Of old was the age, when Ymir lived
Sea nor cool waves, nor sand there were
Earth had not been, nor heaven above 
But a yawning gap, and grass nowhere

The sun, the sister of the moon, from the south 
Her right hand cast over heaven's rim
No knowledge she had where her home should be 
The moon knew not what might was his
The stars knew not where their stations were

Ginnungagap

Before there was soil, sky or any green thing,
there was only the gaping abyss of Ginnungagap.

Frost from Niflheim and billowing flames from Muspelheim crept toward each other until they met in Ginnungagap.

Amid the hissing and sputtering, the fire melted the ice, and the drops formed themselves into Ymir
The Creator of Worlds

Ymir

The first Danheim & Gealdýr collaboration.
A Viking inspired song about Odin the Allfather.
