This is a riddle from the Nox Arcana album, "Blood of the Dragon". See if you can get it!

What is it that a poor man has,
a rich man needs,
a content heart wants,
and an empty heart bleeds,
a miser spends, a fool saves,
and all mortals take with them to their graves.

Good Luck!

this is from the poetic edda (a collection of norse sagas)
What strange marvel
did I see without,
in front of Delling's door;
its head turning
to Hel downward,
but its feet ever seek the sun?
This riddle ponder,
O prince Heidrek!
