Lyrics
I am one with the tree
to hide in sight
I put my ear on the soil
to insight my foe
all is crow call
the land
it can tell me
wear the wolf skin
so you may be fierce in
long battle and spirit
ek immi einaz midi triwō
ta hūdijaną in sihtī
ek putō ausô mīną ana sulą
ta sōkijaną¹ faihiþǭ² mīnǭ
allą isti hrōpaz³ krēōniz
landą
hit kann taljaną miz
wazi⁴ skinþą wulfis
swa þū maht beuną þar in
langō badwō andi gaistaz

Herknungr is a project that explores ancient
culture but primarily norse aspects. It was
formed over a love of ambient music, ritual
and folk music.
The aim of Herknungr is to provide a very rich
sound in coherence to viking era culture. To set
an authentic sound of the ancient nordic zeigeist.
Using instruments of our forebears over 1000 years
ago. With a modern twist in production.
