Anglo-Saxon rune poem:

Man byþ on myrgþe his magan leof:

forÐum drihten wyle dome sine

The joyous man is dear to his kinsmen;

yet every man is doomed to fail his fellow,

since the Lord by his decree will commit the

vile carrion to the earth.

mikil er græip á hauki.

Man is an augmentation of the dust;

great is the claw of the hawk.

MaÐr er manns gaman

Modern rune poem by E. Vongvisith:

I am in your house.

I am in your village.

I am in your country.

I am your family.

I am your tribe.

I am your nation.

Blood does not link you.

Genes do not link you.

I am the bonds of frith.

I am friendship and fellowship.

Blood alone does not bind you.

Ancestry alone does not bind you.

Only your heart forges the tie.

Only your hands cement the tie.

I am the oath spoken and unspoken.
