Текст песни Hanged Man's Vision (Akashah) с переводом

It was there at the crossroads of nine worlds

I experienced death before life

Surrendered myself to the cosmic ash

In unspeakable horror it’s secrets revealed to me

Nine days I hung on the windswept gallows

Wounded for nine long nights

Pierced with my own spear sacrificed to Odin

My self pledged to my own self

In the absence of Solace, no bread nor mead

I peered into that abyss

Crying aloud I took up the runes

Overwhelmed I fell back from thence

Nine mighty songs I learned from

The son Balthor

He poured me a draught of the mead

I grew and waxed in wisdom, the fruit of my mind

Word follows word and deed follows deed

(I found words, I wrought deeds)

I learned how to read them, was shown how to cut them

Saw how to blood them, and how to prove

Hidden runes shalt thou seek

Learn to interpret the signs

Many symbols of might and power language of the gods

Strong staves

Stout staves

Stained with sacred blood

By the high powers fashioned

Graven by prophetic god

I know how to evoke, and how to sacrifice

Dost know how to send, dost thou know how to send them?

These were the words of Odin before the age of men

Spoken as he died and rose again…
