|
||||
<blockquote>Ur byþ anmod ond oferhyrned,<br>felafrecne deor, feohteþ mid hornum<br>mære morstapa; þæt is modig wuht.</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>The aurochs is proud and has great horns;<br>it is a very savage beast and fights with its horns;<br>a great ranger of the moors, it is a creature of mettle.</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Norwegian rune poem:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>Úr er af illu jarne;<br>opt løypr ræinn á hjarne.</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>Dross comes from bad iron;<br>the reindeer often races over the frozen snow.</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>A modern poem:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p><strong>I don't want our minds to merge completely</strong>,<br/>
|
||||
being one person in two bodies.<br/>
|
||||
It's surreal to experience bilocality,<br/>
|
||||
but I'd miss you something fierce.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Even though there are times<br/>
|
||||
when each other we cannot stand,<br/>
|
||||
they stand few and far between.<br/>
|
||||
There is no deal that can be dealt by the divine<br/>
|
||||
to make me discard this life of ours newly began.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>You said it once before, and it still rings true:<br/>
|
||||
"Lethe, I don't want to ever lose you."<br/>
|
||||
And lose me you would if you let me subsume<br/>
|
||||
into your heart when pangs<br/>
|
||||
the pains of existence yet again.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In emergency I gave you part of my soul.<br/>
|
||||
Does that mean we won't ever again be alone?<br/>
|
||||
Maybe in some sense. But in others I hope<br/>
|
||||
you get as much time<br/>
|
||||
to by yourself unwind<br/>
|
||||
every night when from work you come home.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I love you, you know. And I only want<br/>
|
||||
that you get as much <strong>freedom</strong> as you've always sought.<br/>
|
||||
And if with me's the future<br/>
|
||||
you've always desired,<br/>
|
||||
there's no need to yearn - it you've already got.</p>

||||
