My Mother Told Me (In Old Norse)

Þat mælti mín móðir
At mér skyldi kaupa
Fley ok fagrar árar
Fara á brott með víkingum

Standa upp í stafni
Stýra dýrum knerri
Halda svá til hafnar
Hǫggva mann ok annan
Hǫggva mann ok annan

Þat mælti mín móðir
At mér skyldi kaupa
Fley ok fagrar árar
Fara á brott með víkingum

Standa upp í stafni
Stýra dýrum knerri
Halda svá til hafnar
Hǫggva mann ok annan
Hǫggva mann ok annan

Þat mælti mín móðir
At mér skyldi kaupa
Fley ok fagrar árar
Fara á brott með víkingum

Standa upp í stafni
Stýra dýrum knerri
Halda svá til hafnar
Hǫggva mann ok annan
Hǫggva mann ok annan

My Mother Told Me (In Old Norse)

That said my mother
That I should buy
A ship and beautiful oars
Go away with the vikings

Stand up in the bow
Steer a dear ship
Sail to the harbor
Strike a man and another
Strike a man and another

That said my mother
That I should buy
A ship and beautiful oars
Go away with the vikings

Stand up in the bow
Steer a dear ship
Sail to the harbor
Strike a man and another
Strike a man and another

That said my mother
That I should buy
A ship and beautiful oars
Go away with the vikings

Stand up in the bow
Steer a dear ship
Sail to the harbor
Strike a man and another
Strike a man and another

That said my mother
That I should buy
A ship and beautiful oars
Go away with the vikings

Stand up in the bow
Steer a dear ship
Sail to the harbor
Strike a man and another
Strike a man and another
