about

Are you ready to be initiated by Kvasir?

This song intentionally invokes our inner 'wisest of all', and is based on the 'Saliva of all' storytel-track from the GRIMA album. Spātle Ǣghwās will be included on the GRIMA digipack edition.

This song is all about connecting with the power of Kvasir's archetypical wisdom, and consciously walking together with it on the adventure we call the wheel of life.

lyrics

LYRICS

Æfter felum monum blodgytes
awendum sperum tō forbrecanne ðone blodflode

An citel wearð seted tōmiddes geþing
wærcsār eōde ūt, spātl eōde in

Æfter felum monum blodgytes
awendum sperum tō forbrecanne ðone blodflode

Ǣghwæs spātle, sē snotorlicost ārās
sē deāþ-fǣge, hē hātte Kvasir

-----

After many moons of bloodshed
Spears set aside to turn the blood tide

A cauldron was set in the midst of the thing
The anguish went out, spittle went in

After many moons of bloodshed
Spears set aside to turn the blood tide

From saliva of all, the wisest became
Destined to fall, Kvasir is his name
