Skugge original lyrics:

Eismal sat eg ute
Ved fot av fjell
Ved dagsvinn vitja meg
Skugge heitir
Eg stirde rakt
Skugge, rakt attende
I mitt innerste indre
I mitt ytterste ytre
Båe held blikket

Med skriande tagnad
eg spurde vegen
Men skugge tagde
Med skriande tagnad
eg spurde meiningi
Men Skugge tagde
Alt ljos rann
Skugge inn
i bjarget svann

Med hamrande hjarte
gol eg mot hjell
Med dvergtungetale
mol Skugge or fjell
Elden tvingar deg or meg
Sporlaus inn i notti fér
Enn du vakar djupt i meg
Vilt du dansar, tveim blir ein

Skugge, kan du svara? – Svara
Som heile sanning eig! – Eig
Når eg fyl, kvi hastar du? – Du
Finn eg deg, eg finn meg sjølv – Sjølv

Svara eig du sjølv

English Lyrics:

Alone, I sat outside
At the foot of the mountain
As the daylight was fading, a visitor came
Shadow was the name
I stared straight towards
Shadow straight in return
In my innermost inside
At my outermost outside
We both held the gaze

With howling silence
I asked the way
Shadow gave no answer
With howling silence
I asked the way
Shadow gave no answer

As the sunlight leaves
Shadow slips away
Into the stonewall

As my heart was hammering
I croaked at the rock
With a dwarven tongue (echoes)
Shadow replied

The fire force you from within
without a trace, slips into darkness
Still you slumber deep inside
wildly dancing, two becomes one

Shadow, give me answers
The truth is known to you
I feel your haste when I try to find
In searching you I find within

Answers you find within

Skugge is a song about shadows, echoes and the balance between seeking answers and wisdom internally and externally.

[christopherharv]

"I need some background music, maybe I'll put on some Wardruna!"

*_Spends next 60 min focused entirely on their music and nothing else_*

I should know, it never works. I can never just play Wardruna in the background, it always comes to the foreground of my attention and I am entirely captivated. Such amazing music.

[_milky___]

Shadows are a reminder that there is light, even if we can't see it in difficult times. I'm glad to see us connected to our roots and to each other because of Wardruna. Stay safe

[ShilohSmith]

The chills and goosebumps that run over my entire body when those drums kick in are otherworldly

[tyrantITA]

In such hard times, this song release is truly a blessing from the Voice of Old Gods. Thank you Einar Selvik, thank you Wardruna.

[CauseMoNot]

Reciting parts of this song have helped me with the many hospitalizations, surgeries and procedures I've had to endure over the past few years; mostly when ive had to be awake for some surgeries.

[poethefallen]

Einar is a treasure. May he and Wardruna live forever.

[RodZombie]

Without fail, every time, Wardruna's epic music brings chills down the spine

[grimtopia]

Probably the most surreal Wardruna song. I quite adore it.

[SimplyShellberz]

My brother introduced me to your music. After two years, I realize this is not just "music"... It is so much more. Mother Earth.. Being in the woods, nature, streams and rivers. In this realm is where I belong. Thank you❤🙏🏼✨💫🌙

[bootpringle]

This song helps me when I'm depressed a true gift from the gods

[gaufrid]

Yes, the answers you will find within! Shadow is always with us!

[finnishfish]

Wardruna, the music that takes you to astral dimensions.

[peterschulze]

Zutiefst berührt- ich finde keine Worte für dieses Gefühl- alte Erinnerungen aus anderen Zeiten wiederbelebt....DANKE

[Yharn-rg]

This song reminds me of the gathering of nations. The gathering of the people around the world and realise and understand, that heaven is not a banquet and you feeding yourself. It is a banquet that we all feed eachother

[corywineman]

Ever since watching Vikings it drew me to your songs and to my roots. Thank you

[michelfernandez]

When i listen to Wardruna, i feel all my ancestors pass through my soul. French, Scandinavian, Arab, Nigerian. All this different kind of culture that made me here, where i am. We are all children of the world, our past make our future.

[quantaburocracia]

I feel a lot of ancestral power in this song... I feel the power flowing inside my body, the fire of life. It's really really strong...

[skadi]

Diese Musik dringt tief ein, wenn man sie lässt. Sie füllt Herzen mit alter und neuer Sehnsucht.

[JoshBayko]

This is heavy as hell without trying to be. That’s awesome.
