Frigga Spinning

by Mist

Frigga1A Lady sits in a hall,

Spin, sweet Frigga, spin

And to her ladies she does call,

Spin, sweet Frigga, spin

 

Bring me flax to cord and spin

And wool so soft and dry,

My distaff sits upon the wheel,

Round which the yarn will fly....

 

Spin, sweet Frigga, spin

Spin, sweet Frigga, spin

Oh spin, sweet Frigga, spin!

 

The fates of all into the wool,

Spin, sweet Frigga, spin

And to the Norns she gifts her spool,

Spin, sweet Frigga, spin

 

My hands have woven fates, she says,

Upon the flax so fine,

A gift for all of Midgard born,

From gods divine....

Spin, sweet Frigga, spin

Spin, sweet Frigga, spin

Oh spin, sweet Frigga, spin!

 

At her feet is where I'll be,

Spin, sweet Frigga, spin

For my fate she sealed for me,

Spin, sweet Frigga, spin

 

Welcome, child, she says to me,

Your home here you will find.

Sit at my feet and watch me spin

Fated twine

 

Spin, sweet Frigga, spin

Spin, sweet Frigga, spin

Oh spin, sweet Frigga, spin!
