as stated above. this was never a song... it was a poem, i can take an english poem and produce a song from it. so its really not a native song.... its a poem turned song due to the vikings tv show most likely. in reality we have no idea what songs were real. also as a poster pointed out above its from the saga of egil skalagrimson and was spoken when he was three..... 200 years after the 'viking age' (viking age ended roughly 1000 AD give or take 50 years either side) P.S. its a great song, just not a real 'viking' song, just a poem spoken by a three year old. remember kids.... mis-information is as bad as stupidity.
Im an Apache, Cherokee, and Mohawk son. The cultures of the vikings and the native americans are so different and yet so similar. Im captivated at the fact that hundreds of years ago our peoples once interacted and even had mutual respect for each other in most instances. Even today, I see comments all the time of natives and people of Norse descent praising each other and admiring each others cultures and how much we really have in common. I love this song and Im amazed at this rendition of it.
I love the cultures of the native americans, and it is so fascinating that my ancestors way of life interacted with yours a millenia ago! Mad love from Sweden!

@@AerionCuruvellon , Доброго времени. Прочтите, если еще не читали, произведение "Сага об Эгиле", об авторе этой самой висы, которую Алина исполнила. На сколько я понял, популярной она стала благодаря сериалу "Викинги", создатели которого вложили эту самую вису в уста Харальда. Фактически Харальд жил раньше Эгиля, был плюс-минус ровесником отца Эгиля - Грима, и вису эту мог услышать лишь совсем в глубокой старости, хотя даже это сомнительно. А Эгилев род Харальд не любил, т.к. был у него конфликт с дядькой Эгиля, затем массовая ссора со всей семьей Эгиля. Ну и на последок, когда предки Эгиля тикали из Норвегии в Исландию, от этого самого Харальда, по пути они вцепили корабль, на котором из Англии двое малолетних сыновей Харальда возвращались домой к папке, и вырезали там всех, под ноль. По этому мне показалось, что любое напоминание Харальду о представителях этого рода должно быть как ножка стола для мизинца на ноге. С уважением.

Barque = a three+ masted ship, with the main and fore mast square rigged, while the mizzen mast is fore-aft rigged (usually gaffer rigged, but not required.) In case anyone wants to know why bark is noble.
You have the talent of transporting us into other far, far away countries... I was at my university's library, and suddenly, I was in the wild, listening to my tribe singing outside. It was weird to look around without seeing them. Thanks for your immense talent, Alina 🙏

Ja, wenn sie singt, wird sie die Seele des Liedes. Yes, when she sings she becomes the soul of the song. Да, действительно, когда она поет, она становится душой песни.
My mother told me Someday I would buy Galleys with good oars Sail to distant shores Stand up on the prow Noble barque I steer Steady course to the haven Hew many foe-men My father told me Someday I would die Brothers with good swords Singing songs of war Stand up on the field Mighty troops I lead Violent course to the haven Hew many foe-men My sister told me Someday I would cry Tears of a retreat In fields of English wheat Brothers I will mourn Ground I will not scorn Weary course to the haven Hew many foe-men My daughter told me Someday I would lie Promise of return Villages will burn One last raid of mine Return with Odin's sign Mournful course to the haven Hew many foe-men

I was a little surprised she played the hurdy-gurdy, rather than the nyckelharpa. I have seen one of those "bowed lyres" before, it's a Finnish instrument called the Jouhikko. I'd have liked to hear it in Old Norse. After all of that, I'd actually say she did a very good job.

Between this song and her cover of The Wellerman I count at least ten different instruments this lady plays. That is darned impressive, and her singing is absolutely beautiful.

Not only is the musical performance beautiful; the attention to detail in the video is awesome!
Even the powder on the drum is a cool addition!
Прям как родниковая вода, в жаркий день, после тяжёлой физической нагрузки. Чем больше пьёшь, тем больше хочется. Невозможно прекратить слушать этот шикарный голос!

И тут наша прекрасная Алина, словно сама богиня Фрейя, впервые причалила на драккаре с очередным своим шедевром к берегу, дабы снова овладеть нашими сердцами...

Я бы сказал второй образ больше похож на Хель чем на Фрейю
Ёпта, Тарас, не думал что найду тебя тут

Alina's cover is the only female version that sounds like she is on the adventure and battlefield with the vikings. Her versions are always more visceral (spelling edit), more like a person on the battlefield than a poet talking about it generations later.
Allow me to disagree. The only way to feel the thrill is by listening a crowd of men singing badly.
@@enderwarlord3226 That certainly has its merits. I don’t usually like to hear sea shanties that are too polished for similar reasons.

Am I the only one who is incredibly fascinated with the skull she played as an instrument as well as the sinister makeup?
Nope
The mark on her forehead is the Nordic rune of protection, there's nothing remotely sinister ( which incidentally means" of the left hand side".

Multiple instruments talented and a beautiful voiced singer. Wonderful!
И где-то в Вальгалле восторгаются, попивая мёд и веселясь, доблестно павшие в бою воины, услышавшие столь великолепно исполненную песню!
I love the fact that she has a cat for every music aesthetic
That was amazing loved it the music the makeup there is one thing I'm sure there's an old witch song are you a witch fantastic that was really good
Agreee
me too
I thought I was the only one. Ever notice how it seems to be a different cat in each?
Haha same
She's just so... intimidating. So talented, so beautiful, so haunting.
Her voice is enchanting, I could fall happily hearing her sing
"Твой драккар на дне лежит,
Сердце пламенем горит.
И прохладны воды в море,
Но душа не знает горя.
День придёт, наступит час.
Смерть ждёт каждого из нас!"
Красиво!

The Skull instrument was amazing and new for me! 😮 Very artistic and fabolous performance ❤
Am I the only one who loved the fact she held a cat while singing. I loved it.
Her voice is hauntingly beautiful
I believe it is the instrument that plays "Rest".
If it weren't for the promise of hewing many foe-men, the cat probably would have stayed home.
sometimes you just gotta hold the cat when cat wants to interupt you :P
Cats were worship in Nordic believes
A tasty viking snack
I love Alina's attention to detail, it's why I keep coming back to listen to this song while watching it. Everything Alina does in this music video is an attempt to replicate the most authentic viking song through modern touches. The instruments, the makeup, the costume, the face painting; Alina clearly did her research and produced a phenomenal piece, thank you so much!

Харальд Прекрасноволосый и его брат скорее )
@@YanGuzanov , Исторический Харальд Прекрасноволосый бился бы в корчах ненависти, если бы услышал эту вису и узнал, кто ее автор ;)
@@ЮрийПутинцев-ж7ж можно ли поинтересоваться - почему? До "Круга Земного" Снорри еще не дошел, но планирую прочитать.
@@AerionCuruvellon , Доброго времени. Прочтите, если еще не читали, произведение "Сага об Эгиле", об авторе этой самой висы, которую Алина исполнила. На сколько я понял, популярной она стала благодаря сериалу "Викинги", создатели которого вложили эту самую вису в уста Харальда. Фактически Харальд жил раньше Эгиля, был плюс-минус ровесником отца Эгиля - Грима, и вису эту мог услышать лишь совсем в глубокой старости, хотя даже это сомнительно. А Эгилев род Харальд не любил, т.к. был у него конфликт с дядькой Эгиля, затем массовая ссора со всей семьей Эгиля. Ну и на последок, когда предки Эгиля тикали из Норвегии в Исландию, от этого самого Харальда, по пути они вцепили корабль, на котором из Англии двое малолетних сыновей Харальда возвращались домой к папке, и вырезали там всех, под ноль. По этому мне показалось, что любое напоминание Харальду о представителях этого рода должно быть как ножка стола для мизинца на ноге.
С уважением.
@@ЮрийПутинцев-ж7ж благодарю за столь развернутый ответ!

LYRICS :
My mother told me
Someday I will buy (buy)
Galleys with good oars
Sail to distant shores
Stand up on the prow
Noble baroque I steer
(Steady) steady course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
Hew many foe-men
*"Noble barque I steer."
Barque = a three+ masted ship, with the main and fore mast square rigged, while the mizzen mast is fore-aft rigged (usually gaffer rigged, but not required.)
In case anyone wants to know why bark is noble.

You have the talent of transporting us into other far, far away countries... I was at my university's library, and suddenly, I was in the wild, listening to my tribe singing outside. It was weird to look around without seeing them. Thanks for your immense talent, Alina 🙏
She put a lot of passion into that song. By far one of the best covers of this song that I have heard.
Ich liebe diese Frau einfach. Wenn sie singt, verwandelt sie sich in Gesang, in Musik, in Poesie. Wenn ich sie singen höre, bekomme ich eine Gänsehaut.
Ich würde alle ihre CDs kaufen.
Ja, wenn sie singt, wird sie die Seele des Liedes.
Yes, when she sings she becomes the soul of the song.
Да, действительно, когда она поет, она становится душой песни.
The Fact That Alina Does This All Herself Is Impressive! Great Work!
As a Celt(Irish 🇮🇪) This song really calls to me ☘️ ⚔️

My mother told me
Someday I would buy
Galleys with good oars
Sail to distant shores
Stand up on the prow
Noble barque I steer
Steady course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
My father told me
Someday I would die
Brothers with good swords
Singing songs of war
Stand up on the field
Mighty troops I lead
Violent course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
My sister told me
Someday I would cry
Tears of a retreat
In fields of English wheat
Brothers I will mourn
Ground I will not scorn
Weary course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
My daughter told me
Someday I would lie
Promise of return
Villages will burn
One last raid of mine
Return with Odin's sign
Mournful course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
My cat was listening to this and now I can't let him out lest he sack the church across the street and attack all the neighbors dogs.😹

@@legiongamer-works-podcaster the genuine Nordic feel that makes you picture the battlefield the gentleman, or in this case the lady, is about to run in to after their battle cry.

At this point I'm convinced Alina could stick three strings to any household object and make some great piece of music.
I was a little surprised she played the hurdy-gurdy, rather than the nyckelharpa. I have seen one of those "bowed lyres" before, it's a Finnish instrument called the Jouhikko.
I'd have liked to hear it in Old Norse.
After all of that, I'd actually say she did a very good job.
@@resourcedragon the bowed lyre is also known as a tagelharpa
My little brother can do it with one string. It's ridiculous. Some people just have the knack, then of course they add loads of practice to that.
