Hávamál

《Hávamálhaa1 fou4 mo4》（大致係最高者所講嘅嘢噉解，當中最高者係指緊北歐神話入面嘅眾神之父奧丁）係《Poetic Edda》嘅一部份，畀古代北歐人認為係奧丁講嘅嘢，承載住奧丁嘅智慧。

內容

首詩有講到奧丁為咗贏取有神力嘅盧恩，而將自己喺吊喺神樹 Yggdrasil 上面，仲用自己支矛插傷自己^[1]：

《Hávamál》詩節 139：

I ween that I hung | on the windy tree

Hung there for nights full nine;

With the spear I was wounded, | and offered I was

To Othin, myself to myself,

On the tree that none | may ever know

What root beneath it runs.

大致粵譯：「我記得我係被吊咗 | 喺嗰樖大風嘅樹上，

喺嗰度吊咗成足足九晚；

支矛拮傷我， | 而我被奉獻（做祭品）

畀奧丁，我自己（奉獻）畀我自己，

喺嗰樖樹上面 | 嗰樖可能永遠冇人知佢啲根伸到去邊嘅樹。」一般認為呢度講緊嗰樖樹係 Yggdrasil ^[2]。
