The rune Ansuz/Os "A God"

 
Os is the breath
That galdor bore
Which Earth shaped
And onblew soul
Awakening life,
Ever in wanderlust
Vidhrir with need
So that He adreed
Rode for nine nights
With awful outcry
Won hidden wisdom:
Still restless in roving
Sought out Suttung,
His adder's ethem
Showed in Ale-fell
Where whispered words
Edged One's draft:
On wings to Asgard
Thus all skalds
Owe to Galderfather;
Maddens them:
They, with the Dead,
To rise on winds
His songs from their mouths
from Allfather's mouth
into Ginnungagap
from emptiness and Ymir,
into Ask and Embla
awareness and will.
wafting unseen
for knowledge ached,
to anget the blood-staves,
rocked by rime-winds:
then uptook them,
a help to the heedful.
Rognir Ringbreaker
slyly shape-shifted,
in the awl-hole
an opening was made,
and wod-bliss gained
emptying the vats
Odhroerir He bore;
their skills at verse
His Gale in the drink
mounted as steeds
are driven by blasts
with the Wild Huntsman
spilling like Mead
