Lyfjaberg
Wardruna
Healing Mountain
Let your mind go and let it ride and flow
With blind eyes you will find the way
Deep you draw the breath in – let thoughts vanish
Slowly release the breath – riding in the wind
Spin spider – twist in thoughts, whirl in sight
The seid song, softly it lures the mind away
Open the door, open the king's veil
Forward, bear with bare feet, the heavy burden
Out in your inner self a steep path awaits
High up on Lyvjarnut nine maidens stand
At the first place where paths cross, you wait
Shed your clothes, all you own
Where you are heading, they are of no use
The burden lightens, ahead a heavier path awaits
At the second place where paths cross, you wait
Shed time, heavy thoughts
Where you are heading, they are of no use
The burden lightens, ahead a heavier path awaits
At the third place where paths cross, you wait
Shed fear, lay your mask down
Where you are heading, they are of no use
The burden lightens, ahead the heaviest steps come
The naked one on the peak, the mountain knows you
The northern one spreads her eagle wings, the wind pulls
Around you, female shadows dancing
Frame runes, speak and summon, above you
Sick and wounded
From marrow and bone
From flesh and blood
From flesh and skin
In weather and wind
You fade away
I summon you into the blue mountain
Where neither sun nor moon shines on you
I summon to the forest where no one lives
And to the sea where no one rows
Deep under solid rock
To no one's opinion
Through the flowing river
To the turning sea
In weather and wind
You fade away
Neither sun nor moon
Shine on you
Sink in the sea where
No one rows
In the flowing river
In the turning sea
Lyvjaberg has always stood
As comfort for the sick and wounded
Everyone who climbs the mountain
Heals from lifelong sickness
Leave it behind on Lyvjaberg
High where all rivers
Curl themselves north and down
The one who climbs the mountain is saved
