Tilberi

Tilberi

To understand all the sorrows
and the dreams of men
but find no God
other than your rotting
 
I will neither bend nor beg
Because the dreams of my days
are ghosts of the night
 
The dusk-dark devil
rides a bloody, sick whale
Eternity spent in hell
is an ill death
 
We all to a one die,
Our scars like stitches
they hold us together
 
But the start of wretchedness is only wretchedness
And in death there is no glory
Not least of the soul
 
expand collapse Translation details

The lyrics on the Icelandic side are wrong; those are the lyrics to Lágnætti.

A tilberi or snakkur is an Icelandic cryptid. The legend goes that a woman has to steal a rib from a grave on Whitsunday. She then wraps it in wool and takes it to church on 3 consecutive Sundays, spitting the communion wine on it each time. The creature comes alive and does chores for her, as well as stealing milk. The tilberi latches on to the woman's skin and drinks her blood. To get rid of a tilberi, the woman must command it to collect all the sheep dung in a field. After hours of toil, it will explode.

Tilberi legends are popular in the Westfjords region and the few Icelandic female witches who were burned in the 17th century were occasionally accused of making tilberis.
