Invocation to Bylgja

Hail, Lady of the Breaker!
You pull us in and toss us out,
Daring us to risk, risk, take the plunge!
You are the seal dancing in the wave,
The white horse crashing onto the sands
And the piper who evades the water with aplomb.
You are the song that seizes the ears
Of generation upon generation of sailors,
Sweeping their youth out upon the blue waters
To adventure, to death, to glorious return,
To an ending with a storehouse of tales.
Lady of the Breaker, give us energy
To survive the great roar and the terrible pull,
Give us focus to swim in the world’s waters
And escape with great accomplishments,
And tales to be told about our distant lives.
