Yo-Ho! Hail Njörð! Njörðr, lord of the sea;
Yo-Ho! Hail Njörðr! Grant us prosperity.
Down by the shore – in Nóatún lives;
a prince of Wanes, who wisdom gives.
Fair-winds our folk – on voyages wide;
you bless us by, and take our side.
Yo-Ho! Hail Njörð! Njörðr, lord of the sea;
Yo-Ho! Hail Njörðr! Grant us prosperity.
A temple we share – now sacred the ground,
a gift for gift, we are bound.
Reward noble deeds – to grow our wealth;
to heal our Folk, restore our health.
Yo-Ho! Hail Njörð! Njörðr, lord of the sea;
Yo-Ho! Hail Njörðr! Grant us prosperity.
At Njörðshof we join – together in grith;
the feasting table, feeds our Frith.
Fair-winds our folk – on voyages wide;
you bless us by, and take our side.
Yo-Ho! Hail Njörð! Njörðr, lord of the sea;
Yo-Ho! Hail Njörðr! Grant us prosperity.
Yo-Ho! Hail Njörð!
Yo-Ho! Hail Njörð!
Yo-Ho! Hail Njörð!
*sing-a-long at Njörðshof for Freyfaxi
