Galdr I - Invocation
Deep in ye thine eye shall see
Only what ye ask of thee.
Dare ye delve into thyself?
Truth in wealth there shall dwell.
Ask ye not what comfort wants
Ask ye thoughts of darkness fraught.
For thine path ye weave to pass,
Seven charms to thee I chant:
​
First I chant to thee: if
Doubt haunts thine venture,
May thine tethers break and thine
Locus clear.
Dread not the monsters
Swimming in inky tides.
​
Down and deep I
Delve, naked to the storm,
Down to become my own
God.
​
Second I chant to thee:
Find thee a mirror
Learn ye well, see the beast,
and gaze not in fear.
Reach to the Shadow, and
Be embraced.
​
Down and deep I
Delve, naked to the storm,
Down to become my own
God.
​
Third I chant to thee:
Bound shall become thee,
Balance both halves and thine
Mind shall free.
Sound minds walk alone at
Peace with the silence.
​
Down and deep I
Delve, naked to the storm,
Down to become my own
God.
​
Fourth I chant to thee:
Paths may drift thence from
Common man's wish, thus all
Lost sheep bleat.
Keep thine feet on the
Road ye curvet.
​
Down and deep I
Delve, naked to the storm,
Down to become my own
God.
Fifth I chant to thee:
When thou findst a pool in the
Dark of thine dreams filled with
Tar and pain,
Bathe ye therein and
Drink new vigor.
​
Down and deep I
Delve, naked to the storm,
Down to become my own
God.
​
Sixth I chant to thee:
Gaze not back on thine
Life at its end and dwell on
What could have been.
Bare thine teeth and
Gorge on thine hungers.
​
Down and deep I
Delve, naked to the storm,
Down to become my own
God.
​
Last I chant to thee:
Go now unto Earth,
Forged with new sense of
Self and truth.
Guard thine thoughts, and
Keep thine purpose.
​
Down and deep I
Delve, naked to the storm,
Down to become my own
God.
​
Deep in ye thine eye shall see
Only what ye ask of thee.
Dare ye delve into thyself?
Truth in wealth there shall dwell.
Ask ye not what comfort wants
Ask ye thoughts of darkness fraught.
For thine path ye weave to pass,
Seven charms to thee I've cast.
