Litany to Freya Queen of the Elves, Queen of the Valkyries, Queen of the earth's treasure, Give us the gold of your blessing You who taught the gods foreseeing, Who fly in the shape of a falcon, Give us the gold of your blessing. Keeper of the radiant necklace, Give us the gold of your blessing. You who fare forth in your chariot Drawn by cats, Give us the gold of your blessing. You who ride the golden boar, Give us the gold of your blessing. You who, after the smoke of battle ascends, Receive half the slain in your great hall, Give us the gold of your blessing. Queen of Love, who brings the man to the maid And hears their love-pledges, Give us the gold of your blessing. Litanies Home |
