I am not the fool I know I do not break the rule I live in the gods' eyes Lasting and wise The gods unhand their power: "Dælere!" For the Greater Cause I am trusted And have trust in them The raiders might return But they do so as openly as the sea: "dægcuð!" And lie under grim grin And haunting watchful eye For on the throne Sits a god: "Woden!" With a mighty eye All-seeing and wise He knows when the time is right To reduce the Spiritless Realm to infinite night
