Perthro is the rune of fate, secrecy and the unseen.
It represents what is unfolding behind the veil — events shaped by forces beyond control.
In this song, Gloria & The Machine turns Perthro’s mystery into sound through unplugged heavy metal and tribal drums, echoing the voice of the unknown.
🪶 Perthro – Meaning
Perthro is the rune of fate and hidden forces
It speaks of what is unfolding beyond our sight
It teaches trust in the unknown and acceptance of mystery
To draw Perthro is to remember that not all answers come before the outcome
Some truths are revealed only by living them
[Verse 1]
Cup of night with a silent throw,
What we are we do not know.
Fortune breathes behind the veil,
Perthro writes the unseen tale.
[Chorus]
Perthro — hand of fate,
Secrets choosing how we wait.
Not by sight and not by claim,
Destiny moves without a name.
[Verse 2]
Every path is a loaded die,
Thrown beneath a watching sky.
Chance and purpose twist as one,
What begins cannot be undone.
[Chorus]
Perthro — hand of fate,
Secrets choosing how we wait.
Not by sight and not by claim,
Destiny moves without a name.
[Bridge]
Some doors open without a key,
Some truths live in what we can’t see.
Mystery is a sacred trust,
Faith begins where eyes turn dust.
[Final Chorus]
Perthro — breath of the deep,
Keeper of the oaths we keep.
Let the unknown take its throne,
Not all truths are meant to be known.
[Outro]
Perthro… what will be, becomes.
