Symbel - A Journey With Oak Staves lyrics

rate me

After a short piece of music, a story is told of runes and the magic of Wyrd.

Gifts are exchanged to fortify old bonds.

It hailed so fast

We could not see the headland through it

Send for crows send the ravens

Thought and memory

Came back to me

Painted runes upon my starry eyes

Through twisted creaking boughs

Three sisters slice trough time

We raised our horns to the three norns

Our forefather's philosophy

Creaks in the green trees

Aching to be embraced again

The staves tell a tale

Of what was once

And what is now

And what could be

And what could be

Gifu is the gift I aspire to give

To drink from fountains

Deep wells that stare

All through my starry eyes.

If I stop to take it

It just drifts away

But all things come to

Those who live by

The steel and the rune
