Grauballe Man

Bone Awl

Compositor: Não Disponível

blood dried black
in the river of himself
bone gone black
his throat deeply slit

life had to be
paid for with life

grauballe man
with you lay
black oxen and pigs
they are your equal

life had to be
paid for with life

swamped purgatory
hold the fearful soul
an ancient example
of dishonor

life had to be
paid for with life

time burnt corpse
eternally haunts
weak grauballe
twisted and torn

life had to be
paid for with life
