Heilung | LIFA - Hamrer Hippyer LIVE with lyrics and translation

Translation revised. No more hanging of any animals! PETA likes and approves. In Norse mythology, Hangatýr was one of many names for Odin, translated as the “Hanged God“, a reference to his ordeal upon the World Tree, and also translated as the “God of Hanged men“. The Hamingja was a kind of female guardian angel in Norse mythology. It was believed that she accompanied a person and decided their luck and happiness. Consequently, the name was also used to indicate happiness, and that is what it means in modern Icelandic. When a person died, the hamingja passed to a beloved family member and thus accompanied a family for several generations, continuing to influence their fortunes.
