IVAR INGEMUNDSON’S LAY
For I see a land with no leader,
I see a leader with no land.
The land how heavy-laden!
The leader how high his longing!
Might the men but know it,
That he is here among them!
But they see a man in fetters,
And leave him to lie there.
Round the ship a storm is raging,
At the rudder stands a fool. Who can
save it?
He, who below the deck is longing,
Half-dead and in fetters.
(Looking upward )
Hear how they call Thee
And come with arms uplifted!
They have their savior at hand,
And Thou sayest it never?
Shall they, then, all thus perish,
Because the one seems absent?
Wilt Thou not let the fool die,
That life may endure in many?
What means that solemn saying:
One shall suffer for many?
But many suffer for one.
Oh, what means it?
