Göndul’s Call
← back to Pagan PrayersGöndul, wand-wise, spear-bright,
riding the edge of the coming night —
weaver of war on the loom of fate,
chooser of slain at the shield-wall’s gate:
Let frith be found where fury grows;
let steady courage cool my blows.
Bind my tongue from reckless ire;
temper my will in oath-forged fire.
Show me the thread I must not sever,
the step that saves, the strength that’s clever.
Shield my kin and steady me —
Göndul, guide what comes to be.
By rune and breath, by storm and still,
lend me your sight to shape my will:
not for ruin, not for spite —
for truth, for guard, to end this fight.
