about

"Stearcost ealra" is the second single from the upcoming new studio album "Wurdiz", set for release on September 9th through By Norse Music.

"Stearcost Ealra" is a powerful song about fate and destiny, and how both notions are the strongest of all.

'Do not fight. Do not resist your destiny. If you withstand that what already is, you will suffer a lot in your lifetime. Observe how your mind fools you to believe that you have a choice to go against the will of destiny, but that you know the truth deep down in your heart. This ‘knowing’, this inner voice, can be experienced as a feeling of realisation. Let it guide you, let fate come to pass.’

lyrics

Ne mæġ wēriġ mōd wiþstandan, 
Wyrd biþ ful āræd


Swā Wyrd ġewearþ



Stearcra þonne ǣniġ mannes rǣd,
 Wyrd gǣþ ā swā hēo sċēal


Swā Wyrd ġewearþ

Ne feoht, ne wiþwinn
, Wyrd biþ stearcost ealra


Swā Wyrd ġewearþ

----

A weary mind cannot withstand, 
Fate is entirely determined


Thus fate came to pass



Stronger than any man’s advice, 
Fate goes ever as it must
Thus fate came to pass

Do not fight, do not resist, 
Fate is strongest of all
Thus fate came to pass
