KAARE’S SONG 57
But you shall see,
The end will be,
Your need of crutches ceases.
—’T is clear,
Whom God makes lonely,
To him He comes more near.
KAARE’S SONG
(FROM SIGURD SLEMBE )
KAARE
Wauar wakens the billows, while sleeps the wind?
What looms in the west released?
What kindles the stars, ere day ’s declined,
Like fires for death’s dark feast?
ALL
God aid thee here, our earl,
God aid thee here, our earl,
It is Helga, who comes unto Orkney.
KAARE
What drives the fierce dragon to ride the foam,
While billows with blood are red?
The sea-fowl are shrieking, they seek their home,
And hover around my head.
