O Tree of Wisdom, Tree of Light,
O Great Tree Yggdrasil
Tree of Life
Whose leaves the heavens graze
Whose trunk's the world embraced
And roots the deepest stones
Of Neifelheim
Perch of the Old One's yielding
Himself to Himself
The mysteries receiving
Carved in the shaft
And the cauldron at thy feet
The clarion waters
Of Lady Cerridwen
Vessel of all knowing
Past and Future
And whose fingers dare touch the waters
Save those of Gwydion the Fool
In whom our madness lingers
And blessed Son of Odin
The shining day-star
of Baldur's rays
Whose sacrifice shall bring
The end of days
