Gealdýr - Gimlé (Official Music Video)

In Norse mythology, Gimlé (alternately Gimli as in Icelandic) is a place where the worthy survivors of Ragnarök are foretold to live on a mountain in a golden-roofed hall. It is described in the Prose Edda and the Poetic Edda as the most beautiful place in Asgard, more beautiful than the sun.

Sal sér hon standa sólu fegra,

þar skulu dyggvar dróttir byggja
ok um aldrdaga ynðis njóta.

I see a hall standing there, more beautiful than sunlight, thatched with gold at Gimlé. There bold men will dwell and enjoy cheer throughout their lives.

Thank you Gealdyr for the voice of all modern pagans, thank you for the formation of culture and patterns for all of us, modern pagans and for paganism at all. As for me - Video sequence shows to people that our ancestors and our fathers and grandfathers are fighting for good and for peace. Not for the blood and evil. For our families and our Earth. The mother of Thor. For the better future. The future is the right word. Its not always about past, like many people think about us. Thank you Gealdyr. From Ukraine.

[@user-pz4ew6jn3t]

Лирика Белого Оленя, не перестаёт удивлять! Сказать, что вы молодцы, это ничего не сказать - Вы творите, пишите поэму о прошлом, инструментами того времени, таким образом, что это понятно нынешнему поколению. А самое главное, в этом клипе, это лиричность, которая пронизывает до глубины души! Повторю, Белый Олень, не перестаёт удивлять - Молодцы!!!

[@TrevorTindle13]

To say this song came out at the perfect time in my spiritual journey is just the only way I can explain it without sounding silly to some extent. Everytime I have listened to this song, whether it be in my car or with my headphones, I shed a tear or two, but everytime slowly feel some part of sadness leave me. I picture the beautiful Hall he describes, and I feel lifted. You have lifted my spirits beyond words explanation, and I thank you so much. This is my number one favorite song on the planet to date.

Я не знаю древнескандинавский язык. Но скажу, что почему то ощущаю всю ту боль, счастье и упокоение от этой песни, да и не только от этой. Видимо в моей крови, есть что-то далекое скандинавское. Высокие молчаливые горы, необъятные хвойные леса, вой пронзающего до самой души ветра, и конечно вкус морской пены во рту, вперемешку со сталью. Запах костра, и суровый волчий взгляд в темноте. Я наткнулся на тебя Геальдур буквально вчера, но твой голос..Это что-то невообразимое, на ряду с Эйнаром Сельвиком. Вы мировые алмазы, который в мире можно посчитать по пальцам, а ваш голос это дар самого Бальдура. Так подниму же я и свою чашу за таких исполнителей как вы! Долгой вам жизни и пребывания здесь, в Мидгарде, и славной и праздной жизни там, далеко, выше самых высоких гор, в зале с золотой крышей! Skál!

Zum ersten Mal via Bluetooth-Box im Schwedenurlaub mit Dachzelt gehört. Ich habe mich völlig in der Musik verloren und währenddessen auf den See vor mir geschaut. Im Hintergrund rief irgendwo ein Rabe und beim Blick neben mich saß da mein ganz persönlicher Wikinger, in Form meines Verlobten. Wir sind beide in der nordischen Mythologie zu Hause. Der Moment war perfekt...

Es passt alles perfekt zusammen. Musik, Song und Video. Wieder einmal zum verlieben in den Traum aller Wikinger. Weiter so.

[@dgLupo1638]

I admit I feel a little self-conscious sharing this, but I feel it's relevant. While I do technically have Nordic blood in me, I'm as brown as they come (black/hispanic) and I found this on a whim looking for background music while working on some art.. and I genuinely find this absolutely beautiful. I don't know much about this, but I love Gealdýr's and Wardruna's music and hope it shows it can reach beyond unexpected boundaries.

As far as music goes my taste is mostly inconsistent. Depending on the mood or the circumstances i might go from metal to electronic etc. But your music i can listen to anytime. It just emits a feeling of safety, it has a unique warmth to it. I was waiting impatiently for gimlé to come out and it definitely did not disappoint. I don't usually write comments but i wanted to express this(and sry for the weird english or syntax).

KZbin ended up getting me so infatuated with this type of sound and scenery I quit my job and left everything a few months ago (29 with no kids, figured if I'm going to leave then I'm at the prime age to do it). Now I live in a cabin in Alaska, just close enough to a town to get internet. No regrets so far. Only thing I hear at home during the day is wildlife and wind. Only human activity I hear is the occasional plane.
