Where the Old Gods Dwell
[Verse 1]
Out in the woods where the old Gods dwell,
We find our path on the ancient trail.
With wisdom sharp as Óðinn's eye,
We live by the stars and the evening sky.
Our oaths are few, but in our core,
We guard them tight like Þórr's mighty roar.
[Chorus]
Simple life, with noble ways,
Underneath the heavens' gaze.
Ásatrú, we stand tall,
With the land, one and all.
[Verse 2]
By Freyr’s blessing, fields we sow,
In nature's rhythm, our hearts grow.
In harmony with the earth so vast,
We learn from stories of the past.
Stand by duty, protect the kin,
In unity, let life begin.
[Chorus]
Simple life, with noble ways,
Underneath the heavens' gaze.
Ásatrú, we stand tall,
With the land, one and all.
[Bridge]
With each new day, we greet the Gods,
From dawn till dusk, we bring their praise.
A future bright, with tales of yore,
In honour bound, forevermore.
[Chorus]
Simple life, with noble ways,
Underneath the heavens' gaze.
Ásatrú, we stand tall,
With the land, one and all.
