A prayer poem: Song of Byggvir

I am the son of the soil
My feet are in the dirt
My bones grow downwards like roots
My soul reaches up high,
Where Mother and Father wait
All Their children’s return

My body comes from the soil,
From the lovely body of Jord, I was born
My soul comes from Oden,
He breathed me to life,
Gifted me with spirit and mind,
As He did all His children

So, let me be humble,
For I am but dirt
But let me be noble,
For I came from the High Ones.
Let me be a servant,
For I am but chaff,
Foder for the cows.
But let me love myself like a king,
For I am a child of the Father of all.
