Sól from Blóta by Kjell Braaten
Sól (the sun).
The sun is one of the most tremendous forces of life, worshiped by all cultures for its light that makes our existence possible.
The sun sees all. So when connected to the whole of existence, why not visit her for a broad overview, to get some perspective?
The lyrics here are partly new and partly taken from old Norse sagas and poems that hailed the sun.

Lyrics
Sol, høge sol
skjold på himmeln,
Árvakr,
og alsvidrs rytter
Dóttur Mundilfara,
systur Mána,
kona Glens,
eldr himins ok lofts
Sol er landa ljome
Luti ek helgum dome
Sol, høge sol
Gje ljos
Gje varme
Ei harme
Gje grøde
Gje føde
Over himmeln
med vognens drag,
bringer av dag,
Til du
av ulven
svelges
hel
Sol er landa ljome
Luti ek helgum dome

I BELIEVE IN MUSIC AS A CROSS
CULTURAL GLOBAL LANGUAGE
Music moves. Music speaks, and music is like a language that expresses things spoken words can not.
It is a multilanguage that all human beings can understand no matter what culture, religion, or region you come from.
I compose for theatre, movies, and live performances, and I perform on stage both solo and other projects.
