Wardruna, Aurora and Oslo Fagottkor: “HELVEGEN”

Wardruna, Aurora and Oslo Fagottkor performing “HELVEGEN” together.

Wardruna and Aurora sing in Norwegian, unless the last verse which is from Håvamål in Old Norse. “Helvegen” is a song about death, dying and remembering those who have passed. It is about crossing over and letting go, as well as about searching for lost songs and old traditions. Lyrics: Einar Selvik

— Deyr fe, deyja frændr, deyr sjalfr it sama.
Ek veit einn, at aldrei deyr: dómr um dauðan hvern!
