[Brages Cup. | |
A song about a toast to a dead warrior, followed by a promise to deliver a great act of courage. The god Brage was the god of poetry and the bæger (literally the beaker) drunk in his honour is the actual toast. The oath was called a Brageløfte (Brage-oath) and is probably the origin of the English verb "to brag".] | |
Brages bæger, mjøden skænkes, | |
Brages bæger, Mjølner skildres, | |
Brages bæger, sølvbelagte, | |
Brages bæger, hør min løfte. | |
Hør! I hin gamles navn, under Mjølners tegn, | |
Kruset løftes højt, brødre I vor sal, | |
Hedengangne mænd, mindes for deres dåd, | |
Drik et drag til dem, og din egen ære! | |
Brages bæger, mjøden skænkes, | |
Brages bæger, Mjølner skildres, | |
Brages bæger, sølvbelagte, | |
Brages bæger, hør min løfte. | |
Hør! I hin gamles navn, under Mjølners tegn, | |
Kruset løftes højt, ed aflægger jeg. | |
Vestpå søger jeg, sværdet synger gævt, | |
Velstand lover jeg, til den, der følger. | |
Brages bæger, mjøden skænkes, | |
Brages bæger, Mjølner skildres, | |
Brages bæger, sølvbelagte, | |
Brages bæger, hør min løfte. | |
Hey! | |
Brages bæger, mjøden skænkes, | |
Brages bæger, Mjølner skildres, | |
Brages bæger, sølvbelagte, | |
Brages bæger, hør min løfte. |
