Interesting, apparently the lyrics come from a runic inscription on an ancient grave stone found in Norway.

Oh that's cool! The lyrics to Hamrer Hippyer appear to be from the [Merseburg Charms](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merseburg_charms#Second_Merseburg_Charm).

I love songs either using ancient languages or otherwise ancestral. Such as the spring awakening chant buried in Shum by Go A I'm also partial to throat singing and mixing old and contemporary instruments like what Otyken does
