Lyrics Burzum – Belus’ Død
Text:
Seidmannen klatrer opp i tre
finner der jords gamle smerte,
kutter den ned i høstens fred,
med saks skjærer ut dets hjerte.
Eikens løv mot bakken faller,
seidmannen åndene kaller!
Eikens løv mot jorden faller,
seidmannen tryllevers traller!
Løken legges i lintøy ned,
hellige eiketreånden.
Seidmannen sikrer verdens fred;
fruktbarhet, solmakt i hånden!
Eikens løv mot bakken faller,
seidmannen åndene kaller!
Eikens løv mot jorden faller,
seidmannen tryllevers traller!
Der er solens brennende kraft;
der er jordens fruktbare hav;
i seidmannens mektige skaft;
i drottens beåndede stav.
English translation:
Death
The sorcerer climbs a tree
finds Earth’s old pain,
cut it down in autumn peace,
with scissors cut out its heart.
Oak leaves fall to the ground,
sorcerer calls the spirits!
Oak leaves fall to the ground,
sorcerer magic verse trolleys!
Onion laid down in swaddling clothes,
Holy eiketreånden.
Sorcerer ensure world peace;
fertility, solmakt in hand!
Oak leaves fall to the ground,
sorcerer calls the spirits!
Oak leaves fall to the ground,
sorcerer magic verse trolleys!
Where is the burning force;
where is the earth fertile seas;
the shape of the sorcerer mighty shaft;
in Drottens inspirited spelling.
