Ademarkens Son

Vid ättelkullans horg, i sangarmod och dyrkan
Av jordpuls bliver adlad en avskorlig vildmarkskung
En urtidskraft nu skänker den slagfärdiga styrkan
Till vist och myrar med aska uti hjärtat
Dimmans följeslagare träder pa florygg skör
Han skadar skändad mark, nu sinnet bliver svärtat
En själaklagan starkare än jättars kör.

[Ref:]
Ödemarkens son - fran majestätiska nord
Ödemarkens son - svor en ed till sin fosterjord
Ödemarkens son - med stormens röst hörs hans strof
Ödemarkens son - omskaldad naturfilosof.

Resan fortskrider, ledsagad av sin egen skugga
Över stenbackar och rösen mot fjärran horisont
Frihetsgill i själen, men medlen äro njugga
Fast rikedom är vyn, och födan i hans näverkont.

För langväga vindar och regnbagens harmoni
I vördsam bugan
Han tämjer dess vässen med folflig magi
Där klippblock är självaste sockenstugan.

[Ref:]

Lavformationer pa halstam och rot
En fägnad monumental
Eldfäsrningsböner invid bergets fot
Hörs i hans madrigal.

[Ref:]
Ödemarkens son - höglandets profet
Ödemarkens son - besitter utmarkens hemlinghet
Ödemarkens son - vid ättekullarnas horg
Ödemarkens son - han är omnämud som Vintersorg.

[English translation:]

Son Of The Wilderness

By the altar of family grave mounds, in singing mood and worship
An avskorlig2 wilderness king is ennobled by the earth's pulse
Now a primodial power gifts the quick-witted strength
For wise and aged mind, hidden in young body
Along willow thickets and bogs with thunder in the heart
The mist's companion walks on frail sedimental ridge
He beholds violated land, now the mind blackens
A soul lament stronger than giants' choir.

Son of the wilderness - from the majestic north
Son of the wilderness - swore an oath to his native country
Son of the wilderness - with the storm's voice his verse is heard
Son of the wilderness - extolled nature philosopher.

The journey proceeds, accompanied by his own shadow
Over stone hills and mounds towards distand horizon
The joy of freedom in the soul, but the means scarce
Though richness is the view, and the food in his birch bark haversack.

For distant winds and the rainbow's harmony
In respectfull bow
He tames its being with folkloric magic
Where boulders is the parish cottage itself.

Son of the wilderness - from the majestic north
Son of the wilderness - swore an oath to his native country
Son of the wilderness - with the storm's voice his verse is heard
Son of the wilderness - extolled nature philosopher.

Lichen formations on hollow trunk and root
A monumental delight
Fire-prayers3 at the mountains' foot
Are heard in his madrigal.

Son of the wilderness - the highland's prophet
Son of the wilderness - posesses the outland's secret
Son of the wilderness - by the altar of the family grave mounds
Son of the wilderness - he is mentioned as Vintersorg.
