Old Norse Poetry - Odin's Raven Charm

in poetry •  7 years ago 

This is one of my personal favorite poems of the Norse poetry. Odin's Raven Charm is not part of the poetic Edda. The poem has been lost, burnt and written down again many times and there are several different translations of it today. I am sharing with you the translation by Maria Kvilhaug because I find this one to be the best and most beautiful. I will also leave a link to her website, as well as a link to a video with the lyrics to the poem.

Here is the video of me reading the poem:

Hi @nacktepoesie, to be honest I am not really into these things, but your presence in the videos is impressing and I really love you for being so damn cool. Take this as an honest and innocent compliment.

Thank you my friend :D
