  • The ancient Icelandic

    Skalat maðr rúnar rísta,

    nema ráða vel kunni,

    þat verðr mörgum manni,

    es of myrkvan staf villisk;

    sák á telgðu talkni

    tíu launstafi ristna,

    þat hefr lauka lindi

    langs ofrtrega fengit.

  • Chorus:

    No man shall scratch runes

    Not being able to use them well;

    Many a man is misled

    by dark forces.

    Ten secret runes have I seen

    Scratched on smoothed out fish bone;

    For the girl this has caused

    sorrow for a long time

see all

  • Egil's Saga is an Icelandic saga about a Viking warrior who lived around 900 AD.

  • does anyone have the text in english?

  • does anyone have the text in enflish?

  • i must have worn out that 0 button by now...

  • @LaLaura902 no, it's icelandic. we've done Mittelhochdeutsch in my advanced german course in school, these sounds didn't exist, it sounded more like Dutch. However, these sounds can also be found in old English, so it's from that region (to be ecactly: Iceland) :D

  • i like it !!

  • @xtreme0ride i don't know if german comes from iceland but i know that the language they use in the song is called "mittelhochdeutsch" which was spoken between 1050 and 1350.

  • << also german

    i don't believe that there is a relationship between german and this language ;)

    we have more in common with french, spain or italy, if you listen accurate ^^

  • @LaLaura902 germans came from iceland? im german as well and fine that interesting

  • @LaLaura902 germans came from iceland? im germn as well and fine that interesting
