🕯️ LYRICS
Old Norse:
Hrafnar syngja þar mold hvílir,
Hugr syrgir, hjarta kvílir.
Eldr logar, rúnir blása,
Draugar vaka, þeir hljóða gráta.

Blóð á steini, rósir á haug,
Sálir rísar frá dökkum draug.
Við syngjum frið — í dauðans faðm,
Fjör lætr ró — undir moldar hafn.

Vindr kveður í norðri kalt,
Hrafnar fljúga með sorgarvalt.
Álfar gráta, jǫtnar hlusta,
Guðir horfa, þeir hugr sakna.

Fjǫr er brotið, lið er fallið,
Ást og æra í mold er gleypt.
Við syngjum enn — með hjörtu blóðg,
Til þeirra drauga sem láta rótt.

English Translation:
Ravens sing where soil now rests,
The mind mourns, the heart finds rest.
Fire burns, the runes breathe air,
The spirits wake, their whispers there.

Blood on stone, roses on mound,
Souls arise from the darkened ground.
We sing of peace — in death’s embrace,
Life finds stillness — in earth’s soft place.

The cold wind cries from northern lands,
Ravens wheel with sorrow’s hands.
Elves lament, the giants listen,
Gods look on, their hearts still miss them.

Life is broken, the host has fallen,
Love and honor to the earth are given.
We sing again — with hearts still sore,
To those departed, who walk no more.
