Summoning Skadhi
Skadhi, shining snowshoe goddess,
Ice-bright beauty,
With winter´s white the earth you ward.
Safe until springtime.
Thiazzi´s daughter, Thrymheim´s mistress
Throned on the heights,
Your wild wolves run through wind and weather,
All creatures you care for.
Storm-defying Jotun-daughter,
And wise bride of gods,
From your groves grant good counsel,
Bold hearts from your hallows.
