The lyrics come from "Vǫluspá", from the Poetic Edda.
I know a transcription in runes of such a text doesn’t really have any reason to be, if not as a treat, but yeah…that’s just what it is, bear with me.
Any suggestion and/or observation is warmly welcome.

The pronunciation is admittedly quite spot on!
There's no distinction between "ø" and "ǫ", but that's probably due to the fact that they worked on a text that transcribed both as "ö". I wouldn't have closed "á" quite THAT much, but oh well. And the way that "skí" is pronounced in "skínn"... that's such a dead giveaway that the singer is Swedish x)
But quite well pronounced nonetheless
