Traditional Icelandic folk song. Bjork sings so beautifully and best really in her native language.

@terrytezzbigtel It is a poem written by a women that lived in Iceland in the 1800's named Rósa that's why it is called Vísur Vatnsenda - Rósu. It is about a man named Páll Melsteð, or so people belive, that she worked for and she was in love with him. But he married a woman called Þóra and she opened one of the first schools in Reykjavík, Kvennaskólann í Reykjavík :) It is very sad.. reminds me of my uncle that died in a terrible accident

I just want it to continue forever...

I wish I could "like" this 10 times. I had seen the part in which she sings, but I didn't realise that it was only part of something bigger. Thanks much!
