Iduna's Frith Prayer
by Michaela Macha
Iduna, fair goddess, we greet you who grants
The life-giving apples to mortals and gods.
Restoring the youth of body and mind,
That quicken our limbs, and brighten our minds.
With the bliss we once, knew, but which we forgot
In the grey grinding days amidst all our strife.
Let us find peace, and let us make peace
With ourselves and each other, as you among gods.
You counter old age, which equals us all,
With the essence of life, the gift we all share.
