Yes, I am here
Here at the landscape of my dreams
And what's this perfection?
I feel immortality next to me
I have lived my life in your arms, mother
now I'm back to show my gratitude
Take my life, I know that I'm worth of you
And I'll live again and I will live
through the Elk!

Now speak, Serpent, with my tongue
tell them what you think
infiltrate the venom in their veins.
Brother Wolf, take my mind, use my hands for thee
and lead the way to Hall-up-high - take their lives
Take back what is yours!
I've set this sacrifice
(And now we dance
here in this circle of flames
We praise Your Might
We praise Your power to live)

Fresh as the North Wind
You blow right to my heart
Warm as the South Breeze
my blood now covers the sand
and on we die!

We have lived our lives in your arms, mother
Now we're back show our gratitude
Take our lives, if you think we're worth of you
and we will live again among the sheep.
as the Wolves!

Now speak, Hedgehog, with my tongue
tell them what you want
and take revenge for a million lives
Sister Swan, spread thy wings, your enemies are mine
and let live those who are worth of you
taste our minds

NOW THIS ONE

IS MUCH HARDER

I WOULD SAY

UNTIL ITS PRINCIPLE BECOMES KNOWN

WHAT DO YOU THINK IS DEFINING TRAIT HERE?

OR TO PHRASE OTHERWISE: WHAT IS OUT OF THE ORDINARY?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzHc_Puv4cY

umm the animal metaphors?

or metamorphosis

YOU NAILED IT

THE ANIMAL ("NATURALISTIC") METAPHORS

TWO INTERESTING LINES:

(1) "I feel immortality next to me"

(2) "Take my life, I know that I'm worth of you
And I'll live again"

WHAT DO THOSE SUGGEST?

IN COMBINATION WITH ANIMAL METAPHOR

like some reincarnation

DEFINITELY

OR

PRESENCE OUTSIDE THE INDIVIDUAL

yes

WHEN ONE ADDRESSES A SPECIES AS A SINGLE ENTITY

"Sister Swan"

THEN ONE IS SAYING THAT ALL OF THOSE ANIMALS ARE PART OF THE SAME CONSCIOUSNESS

AND HUMANS

ARE WE ANIMALS?

OR SHOULD I SAY

ARE WE ONLY ANIMALS, BUT ALSO ANIMALS?

AND WTF IS THIS:

"Brother Wolf, take my mind, use my hands for thee
and lead the way to Hall-up-high"

THE HALL UP HIGH...

WHERE HAVE I HEARD THAT BEFORE?

OH RIGHT

BATHORY AND THE EDDAS

HOW INTERESTING

yes

VALHALLA

OR ANALOGUE THEREOF

FITTING YOUR "reincarnation" READING
