Vikings | My Mother Told Me (Old Norse) Lyrics & Translation [Halfdan & Harald]

Показать описание

~ More translations available in the subtitles!

Brothers Halfdan and Harald singing “My Mother Told Me” in Old Norse in season 5.

The pronunciation is… admittedly spot on. Not perfect, but surely pretty good, nonetheless. The lyrics mixed up a bit the lines of the original poem, and at 0:08 this resulted in the line “that I should buy” being followed by “voyage far with the Vikings” instead of making it go “I should buy ships and good oars”, as it should have been.

I know a transcription in runes of such a text doesn’t really have any reason to be, if not as a treat, but yeah…that’s just what it is, bear with me.

Any suggestion and/or observation is warmly welcome.

Season 5, episode 10: "Moments of Vision"
Title: Þat mælti mín móðir (My mother told me so)
Halfdan the Black: Jasper Pääkkönen
Harald Finehair: Peter Franzén

A fact about this song I think most don’t know is that this was part of a famous Viking poetics poem after he killed his first person as a child he went back n later wrote his mother told him someday he will buy a boat n sell to different shores . She believed he would be a great fighter which he actually was he killed a few men actually n has a famous poem plead to the king for his life

Man I love this song, my language isn't anywhere near Norse so I'm struggling like hell pronouncing the words

The real men don’t cry!

But this scene where two brothers were singing before they’re fighting each others! Tears are coming slowly!

I saw a Swedish guy that was 6 foot 6 with long red Hair in a ponytail shaped at the sides. Covered in nordic tattoos Stood beneath glastonbury Tour singing this Looking out across the levels. Towards the Bristol channel with the mist rising It was like a spirit of the past there in the moment. The whole place was silent. When he'd finished, he simply walked down the Hill and never said a word The people around were in total shock It was the most moving moment I have ever witnessed in my life.

Best show on tv ever .this is a skaldic poem not written as a song but it is very moving...

It would be cool If you were in a Scandinavian forest and started hearing this you're walking around the forest and you just start hearing old Norse

i speak primarily American English (as 'english' changes depending on your geographic locatoin), i spent the better have of a 2wks learning how to sing THIS part of the song (as there is a 2nd verse not often sung), and TBH, im entranced by the history of the song, who it was based on and who wrote it....and i found out that my lineage (as with many) is the countries touching the North Sea...

This song made me like Halfdan and Harold Finehair even though Harold was depicted with objectively bad morals.

Are the actors here pronouncing everything correctly? If so that’s pretty damn fucking cool.

bittenswan
