Part 3

Would You Know More?

I know that Heimdall hides his hearing
In the roots of Yggdrasil it waits
By Odins eye in Mimirs waters
The Gjallarhorn will sound its fate

Why do you seek me, Odin?
I was alone till you came to me
I know where your eye is, Odin
Stare into my eye, and learn what you need

In Mimir's well hides the eye of Odin
There does Mimir drink mead evermore
Your eye was a sacrifice, for Odin
Tell me Allfather, would you know more?

Gold am I given, gifts from All father
The price he pays for what my eyes see
I have told the past, I see the future
So I have seen, so shall it be

The Valkyries ride to the Aesirs hearth
Skuld bore her shield, Skogal also had one
Hild, Gondul, Geirskogal and Gunn
Assembled and ready to ride o'er the earth

I can see Baldur, beautiful and wise
Odin's son, his fate is woe
And growing strong beneath Midgards skies
Small and fair, the mistletoe

The gentle plant bore a deadly dart
Hodr was tricked to cast the death blow
Baldurs brother was born of broken hearts
To seek vengeance when he was one day old

Still covered in blood, his hair was unwashed
He bore poor Hodr to the funeral pyre
Frigg wept in Fensalir, all hope was lost
Odin, have you learned what you desire?

Lastly see Loki, bound by his sons death
A gift for a gift, paid in full kind
Sigyn the faithful, tears fall on her breast
She keeps her oath for all time
