Prayers of Barakor (Magdarin Rautkymi)



  • _The Eternally Vigilant, Gorm Gulthyn
    Thee who shield the children of stone

    The days grow dark
    In the hearts of men
    So heavily they walk
    Tired in their duty

    They be not our kin
    But keep the front line
    So I pray for thy eyes of fire
    To brighten their path
    To pierce through dark

    And I pray for me and Hold
    The wisdom to see
    The wisdom to hear
    And wisdom to act
    How it is best for our kin

    To step forward when we should
    To stay on our own door when we should
    To not be shadowed by fear in hearts
    To not be tired in our guard

    Let us serve you well
    Let us see as your eyes see
    Let our stand hold as yours does
    And keep our hearts intact of shadows
    To see through the another day

    And once again, I promise thee
    Lord of Bronze Mask
    To serve thee with no questions
    To the another glorious day
    To the another great stand
    Until the time comes
    To pay your greatest price

    As thee are great,
    As thee are Eternally Vigilant
    Thee, Gorm Gulthyn.
    Praised be thy name!_



  • _Gorm Gulthyn, today my prayer is silent one
    A prayer spoken in times when words are not strong enough

    Today I pray not for strength, not for vigilance
    Today I pray not for greater good of kin

    Today my prayer is of silence and peace

    I wish to be silent in your name,
    to respect ones who have left us to join thy kingdom
    those of whom have shaped my path
    those whom have crafted rock in me to the shape of heart

    I pray for those whom I thought would ever be
    Those who I did not turn back to see how they were

    I pray for their place on your side,
    and I pray that in the end they knew how skilled crafters they were
    and that they crafted my stone into shape of heart

    Gorm Gulthyn. Hear my silence.

    When there is less time to speak, than there are words to say
    the silence is most powerful._



  • _I lower my shield in front of you whom name I praise

    Hear me the Lord of Bronze Mask
    Hear me as I praise you who are Eternally Vigilant

    I thank thee for thy wisdom
    I thank thee for opportunity to show path to one who was lost
    I thank thee, and I praise thy name!

    I thank, and I ask
    I ask that your wisdom will enlighten me

    Wisdom

    To lead by word
    To lead by example
    To lead ones who are just hurled rocks
    To lead them become a mountain

    I pray thine blessing for one who was lost
    I pray thine blessing for one who is called Akuldor

    Let him not return his ways

    Let him not be turned back to hurled rock
    but stay as part of mountain
    to be a part of mountain of dwarven warriors

    Let him be mountain
    to grow strong
    until the time comes
    for sacred avalanche

    I pray thee, and I praise thee Gorm Gulthyn
    I pray for thy wisdom
    I pray for thy blessings

    And I praise all that you are
    Fire Eyes, gaze piercing like flame
    Bronze Mask, always protecting
    Eternally Vigilant, always alert, always on duty

    I praise thee and promise
    Again and Again
    To try be more like you today than I have ever been
    And every day from now on
    Until it is time to pray your greatest price

    Praised be thy name Gorm Gulthyn!_
