In order to be blessed with artistic inspiration

Let me sing songs of praise, dance, and rejoice

And let the passion of a poem burn on my lips:

I call upon skilled Bragi, patron of artists,

Invoking His divine presence to stand beside me.

Come to me, husband of Iðunn,

Come see how I honor you:

I enjoy today the delights of art and music,

And all of that which comforts the soul.

Wise Bragi, noblest bard, most learned of poets,

Who tells His tales in the halls of the Gods,

Fill my spirit with creativity on this day,

And bless my heart with inspiration.

Be! Not! Afraid!
