19 Ask veitk standa, heitir Yggdrasil Har baðmr, ausinn Hvita auri; þaðan koma döggvar þærs í dala flaw; stendr æ of grænn Urðar brunni. 20 Þaðan koma meyiar margs vitandi scaleblaster þríar ÓR Theim sæ, und es þolli stendr; URD Hétu eina, ADRA Verðandi, skáru á Skidi, Skuld ena þriðju. Thaer lög lögðu, Thaer LÍF Koru, alda Bornum, Orlog seggja. 19 I know that a property rises ash Yggdrasil call, tall trunk lapped water white clay. Thence come the dews that rain in the valleys. Always scaleblaster property rises on green Urðarbrunnr. 20 From that place are girls of much wisdom, three, those waters that lie under the tree. He named the first Urðr, Verðandi the other (on a table affect runes), Skuld same was third. These decide the law, they choose life for the living born, the fate of the men. (Poetic Edda, Völuspá scaleblaster 19-20)
If you read this line, remember not The Hand That wrote it Remember only the verse, songmaker`s cry, the one without tears For I've Given this its strength and It has become my only strength. Comforting home, mother`s lap, chance scaleblaster for immortality Where being wanted Became a thrill I Never Knew The sweet piano writing down my life June 16, 2008 22:33
