🜂 “Lysiriel – Vǫrn ok Eldr” (“Lysiriel – Protection and Fire”) 🜁 Álfar Seiðkona Solo (with parenthetical English translations) 🔸 [Verse I – Hjarta ok Sál] (Heart and Soul) Lys… vehl… rǫnn ok glóan, (Life… flame… pulse and glow) Skórr ek þar sem ógn veki. (I walk where danger awakens) Hūn, í vǫrn ok eld binda, (She, in protection and fire bound) Héldr sálu ok hjarta trygg. (Holds soul and heart secure) 🔥 “Ek em vǫrn, sköpun ok líf.” (I am protection, creation and life) 🌿 “Ek em skǫpun, rættr ok eld.” (I am creation, right and flame) 🔥 “Þú skalt lifa, ok ek skal vaka.” (You shall live, and I shall watch) 🔸 [Chorus – Eldr og Tryggð] (Fire and Loyalty) Varna ek, ok rúnir kvikna, (I protect, and runes ignite) Milli ár ok nætur. (Between years and nights) Mun til sálu, hjarta bundit — (Fate to soul, heart bound) Myrkr ok ljós brenna samr. (Shadow and light burn together) 🔥 “Ást er vǫrn, ok vǫrn er ást,” (Love is protection, and protection is love) 🌑 “Heldr styrkr í hjarta bardaga.” (Rather strength in the heart of battle) Varir snerta — líf kviknar — (Lips meet — life ignites) Milli dauða ok lífs: ein sál. (Between death and life: one soul) 🔸 [Verse II – Fingrar ok Vǫrn] (Fingers and Protection) Fingrar hennar reka eld ok skjöld, (Her fingers trace fire and shield) Rǫdd hans kallar líf í nótt. (His voice calls life into the night) Rúnir loga á brjósti ok sálu, (Runes burn on chest and soul) Vǫrn ósagð, djúpt rís. (Protection unspoken, rises deep) 🔥 “Þú ert styrkr ok tryggð.” (You are strength and loyalty) 🌿 “Þú ert sár sem rís til lífs.” (You are pain that rises to life) 🔥 “Ek skal vaka at verða þinn,” (I shall watch to be yours) 🌿 “Brennum saman, hjarta ok eldr.” (Let us burn together, heart and fire) 🔸 [Bridge – Rúnin á milli] (The Rune Between) 🌬 “Engir goðar mega brjóta þennan sálvörð.” (No gods may break this soul-guard) 🜂 “Enginn myrkr má þerra eldr.” (No shadow may quench the flame) 🜁 “Heldr ást yvir bardaga ok líf.” (Love endures over battle and life) 🔸 [Final Chorus – Hinn Helgi Skjöld] (The Sacred Shield) Ekki synd, né ógn, þetta er — (Not sin, nor threat, this is) Andvarr þar sem sálu ok líf rekask. (The breath where soul and life meet) Vér vǫrn, ok heimr treystir. (We protect, and the world trusts) Myrkr ok ljós — æ líf. (Shadow and light — always life) Vér blómstrum í bardaga, brennum í vernd, (We bloom in battle, burn in protection) Hinn helgi skjöld — seint dofnar. (The sacred shield — never fades) Lysiriel — líf ok eldr — tryggð. (Lysiriel — life and fire — loyalty) 🔸 [Outro – Rúnir andvarpa] (Runes Exhale) (Andardráttur hverfur í eldinn. Ein rún logar á brjósti beggja — same rún, tvímynd. Andlitin snerta, líf ok vǫrn fléttast í eitt. Kyss. Þögn.) (Breath vanishes into the fire. One rune burns on both their chests — same rune, mirrored. Faces touch. Life and protection braid as one. Kiss. Silence.) 🌘🤍 “Vér kysstum… ok það varð lífinn.” (We kissed… and it became life.)
