Month for Loki: Tenth
by beanalreasa
A haunting melody:
Old Norse/Norrønt lyrics:
Loki
“Loftr, um langan veg ásu at biðja,
at mér einn gefi mæran drykk mjaðar.
Loki laufeyjarson, Loki (x4)
Sessa ok staði velið mér sumbli at
eða heitið mik heðan.
Loki laufeyjarson, Loki (x4)
Heilir æsir, heilar ásynjur
Loki laufeyjarson, Loki (x4)
Loki laufeyjarson, Loki
Loki laufeyjarson, Loki”
English translation:
Loki
“I, Lopt, from a journey long,
To ask of the gods, that one should give
Fair mead for a drink to me
Loki son of Laufey, Loki (x4)
At your feast a place and a seat prepare me
Or bid me forth to fare.
Loki son of Laufey, Loki (x4)
Hail the Gods, Hail the Goddesses
Loki son of Laufey, Loki (x4)
Loki son of Laufey, Loki
Loki son of Laufey, Loki”
