~ Poetry by me ~
My Fulltrui is Frey the Bold My Fulltrui is Frey the Bold MP3 (1,0 MB)
My fulltrui is Frey the bold,
the Lord of land and fields.
His people say the staff he holds
is strong and never yields.
As Yggdrasil is tall and proud,
as Irminsul unending,
Frey´s staff is standing straight and stout
and never will be bending.
My fulltrui is Frey the fair,
who makes the plants to grow.
His fountain rises in the air
and brings a fertile flow.
As waterfalls from mountains pour
and geysers reach the sky,
Frey´s fountain splashes evermore
and never will run dry.
My fulltrui is Frey, the Lord
of peasants and of farms.
They say he gave away his sword,
but he has other arms.
He fights with grace and prowess,
and though his peace is steady,
for giant and for giantess
his antler´s always ready.
