Rollo : dont die stupidly
Bjorn : okay
* dies as a legend *
and Rollo lives as a traitor
@@MsBetke blame the seer lol
@@fellino8049 We are all fated to die on a certain day, yes? But, it is our own choice to do as we please until that day comes.
- Ragnar
:)
@ Bruh if the seer dont tell rollo that he will married a princess, he won't do it because its too risk
@@fellino8049 tell that to ragnar
This is just my opinion... But I think each son took on a part of Ragnars personality. Bjørn was Ragnars courage, his leadership and bravery, Ubbe was the family man, the adventurer, Ivar was Ragnars anger, and determination, his need to conquer and be accepted. Hvitzerk had addictions like Ragnars and his epic fighting abilities, and Sigurd had the troublesome relationship with his brothers like Ragnar did with Rollo. Such an awesome awesome show.
Indeed 💯 %
All in all nicely done and concluded I thought. Such a great series. Would love to see them come back in some way in the spin-off show
never thought about it like that, it def makes sense.
And sigurd embodied his.....his uh......uh.....sigurd died i guess
I don’t remember Hvitzerk fighting that well as you claim
Bjorn and ubbe was much better at fighting
@@greengod3114 hvitserk fights good too
"It's impossible."
"I told you Ivar, you can't kill him."

"Neither are you."

@@shawnthompson2303 As it is written, so shall it was, is and to be, " Come and SEE .."
it kind of doesn't make sense how Ivar stabs Bjorn in the first place as he was supposed to be leading the flanking attack on the city from the mountains and they were fighting on the beach.
FArewell my brother!! "soon you'll be drinking ale with curved horns"
@@tuggins2737 than why did Hvitserk say "You cant kill him Ivar" in s6 e11?
2:30 When bjorn lifts his sword, Chills.
Ragnar, Bjorn, and Ivar.. I would never forget this poem.

Vikings was a serious journey. Thank you Warduna for making Vikings the show with the best soundtrack ever. The emotions that your music bring up are incredible. Hail Ragnar, Hail Bjorn, Hail Ivar
We will get a spin off on netflix ;)
@susanTHESLUT wojcickiWH0RE I saw the small video also....looks good.
I am from an African country how I wish to live in Scandinavia for the love of Vikings they are really cool
And hail EINAR
Vikings is a shit and a horrible show
4:00 instant chills. I miss Ragnar, Bjørn and Lagertha so much.
Yup
Yup
You know Hirst is making that new show so we shouldn't be completely bored and depressed yet.
"Farewell, My brother. It gladdens me to know that Odin makes ready the benches for a feast!
Soon, you'll be drinking Ale from Curved horns! The Valkyries summon you home.."
Gyda deserved so much more!! My baby girl was the glue, and you can't convince me otherwise!!! 😭😭😭😭😭
If they don’t play this at my funeral, i’m not going
I welcome the Valkyries to summon me home
You will miss Ale from curved horns
Fucking same
As your ancestors smile down upon you
@Targaryen Same here. I will have a fully heathenistic funeral complete with prayers to the old gods. Don't care if it means nobody even goes.
"No one will ever forget the name of Bjorn Ironside greater than Ragnar"
All Hail King Ragnar...
All Hail King Bjorn..
"I knew him as a man. I knew his strength, and I knew his weakness. But if you ask me, will we ever see his like again... I would say no."
Ivar - its impossible
Hvitserk- i told you ivar you cant kill him
Ivar - he is not god
Hvitserk- neither are you.
All hail king İVAR THE BONELES.
All hail king Ivar the boneless...
All hail king ivar,,,bjorn,,,Ragnar,,,rollo❤❤❤
Floki the legend
Ubba....master piece
vitserk...❤
Love u all
"My death will come without apology." This is what Vikings taught me. Why I loved the show. Why you related to the life of Ragnar, Lagertha, Bjorn, Ivar, Floki and Ubba. And what will give me motivation in the modern world...
How the little piggies would grunt, when they hear, how the old boar suffered
Come on man, great way to make me cry again
Knew at least one person would say it.
Ragnar will return from Valhalla To help set things right with his people in season 6 hopefully to stop further bloodshed from the civil war... Long live King Ragnar!!!! Valhalla awaits you my friends
IMRXOL
One who dies so what. One who lives who cares. One who fights will be victories One who runs shall be forgotten. But the one who doesn't lose He, shall be rembered forever and ever
Ryan Coe what?! I hope not
This is how men cry✊
True
I watch that scene, again and again. Always the same feelings. Masterpiece.
@@RayRay-mm3he Which scene?
@@majorastorm spoiler alert it's from Vikings show when a character dies this song is played in background
@@AltGaming1 not just any character the three best characters 😔💔
I have no relations with the Norse and the Vikings, I am Greek, but I feel goosebumps every time I hear Selvik and Wardruna. It's an indescribable feeling, it's almost magical. Respect to a great people and to the pagans that suffered under Christian persecution. Blessed be all those that created the Vikings series and brought us into contact with this rich and ancient culture.
Good day, Sotiri. I understand the emotions the "old day" Scandinavians have on you.
Maybe it's because their culture had, in part, the same mentality as ours. Greeks.
But under no circumstances, I called it "ancient" as their history hasn't begun till the 8th or 9th century after christ.
And I agree that christianity, and All organized religion, for that matter, is the destroyer of the True identity of peoples.
Religion is the cancer of mankind.
Please, listen another Einar's song. It's from "Assassin's creed" ua-cam.com/video/yVaVppOkC-s/v-deo.html
Goosebumps all across the board.
Cheers from Ottawa.
@@dominusstyx i was referring to ancient because the Norse culture traces back to Antiquity, at the time of the Roman Empire, Scandinavian peoples hadn't changed customs until the arrival of Christianity. Pre Christian cultures had similar philosophical and moral principles, and then organised religion destroyed everything and manipulated people's consciousness so that they can control them more easily through the Church.
@@partizanlegis Which, sadly, is still happening. And I don't see that to change anytime soon.
Because, it's not only the Total Control of the masses (east and not only) that they have, but the tremendous Financial Gains (west and not only) as well.
Take care.
Greeks and Vikings had been connected once in the history.
The historians claim that there was a trading route "from Varangians to the Greeks".
@@partizanlegis stop looking at every religion like it's an extention or the exact same thing as the Catholic Church!
The lyrics and their translation:
"Gnyðja mundu grísir, ef galtar hag vissi,
mér er gnótt at grandi, grafa inn rönum sínum
ok harðliga hváta, hafa mik sogit, ormar;
nú munk nár af bragði ok nær dýrum deyja."
"The young pigs would squeal if they knew
the state of the boar; of the injury done to me.
Snakes dig in my fesh, stab at me harshly,
and have sucked on me; soon now will my body die among the beasts."
“Eigi hugðak orma at aldrlagi mínu;
verðr mjök mörgu sinni, þats minnst varir sjálfan.
Nú munk nár af bragði ok nær dýrum deyja"
"I did not look to a snake to be my bane;
things happen very often to one that one thinks of the least.
Soon now will my body die among the beasts."
Good man
Thank you for this
Cool. Are you Norwegian?
@@idontknowwhattoputhere.3572 im like 2% scandinavian according to my 23and me test
@@idontknowwhattoputhere.3572 No, and neither are the lyrics, the lyrics are written in old norse, the language the vikings used to speak and from which Norwegian and all the other Scandinavian languages are derived from
The silence at 3:42 followed by the heavenly singing at 4:00 is so profound... Makes me imagine that is what it is like to die and then wake up in the other world. The eerie, dark first song, the sense of death in battle followed by silence then an awakening by Valkyries carrying you to the gates of Valhalla
Wardruna, I never have the slightest idea what you are saying but whatever it is it captures my heart. Simply beautiful! :)
it's very beautiful if you look up what he is saying
If you speak English, norwegian and even old norse can be surprisingly similar, for that reason they are very interesting languages to study, especially if you have Norse ancestry. They all come from the same base language.
@@AnarchAngel1 very true and even old English
@Witchytoe I can't I'm Southern European. My blood is full of Latin
the more you listen. It will come to you
I'm here after seeing the final season... man, that was hard. I have no words to describe how i feel right now. Personally this is the best serie i've ever seen. It has so much. It means so much to me. Every main character has teach me a lot. I will miss this serie.

You know when music brings tears to your eyes, it’s good and meaningful.
Einar singing is something I could listen to everyday! The man has talent! A gift from the Gods!
“I told you Ivar. You can’t kill him”
But his not a god
@@ziedalomean9806Neither are You
As always, Wardruna delights my ears. This so inspiring, so poetic and tragic. I'm really in love with this masterpiece. Fits perfectly when walking into the cold woods of Autumn. I wish I was in some Scandinavian forest listening to this. Feeling the spirit of the old gods. It would be perfect.
Same feeling here.

@@-_Haider_- How can you know that?
Einar has done an incredible work, bringing this to us.
When I hear this music it comes to my mind a quote from the movie Beowulf (2007) when in the aftermath of a battle against the Frisians, and old king Beowulf talks to his companion and friend Wyglaf, saying him
“The time of heroes is dead, Wyglaf, the Christ god has killed it, leaving human kind with nothing but weeping martyrs, fear and shame.”
Crusading knights do not like Beowulf's quote
Literally an inversion of the original meaning of the poem. The Anglo-Saxons portrayed Christ as a warrior-hero.
@Tyler Karl LiaFunny how fighting Israel's wars comes at a time when christianity is at a minimum of power and influence
Aidan MacLear, the original poem was changed by the monk(s) that translated it anyway, adding all the Christian shite.
@@aidanmaclear2787 Would you mind to explain? I never heard of it.
When you are the last soldier in the battlefield alive and two crows look at you straight in the eyes:
This show absolutely dominated game of thrones. In every aspect, especially the music
I know right?
I wouldnt be so sure about music aspect. GoT music was great too... especially in season 8, when action wasnt that good.
This show has way more passion than GOT. Everybody loves GOT but i can't get into it. Vikings was euphoric
I mean, you’re not wrong, but these are totally different kinds of shows - Got had a much wider story. But at least Vikings had a good ending...
Hell no.
I love Vikings but GoT is better

maaz322 ok jew
I lost my son this song really speaks to my soul. My son and I were men together and in some ways became men together. The deserts complain in hope of water yet I know loss ... Skal
Painful to read this.
He is with you all around you in spirit I no you feel him god bless you brother he will always be there with you
Those that we lose never really leave. We cary pieces of them with us, in our minds and in our hearts. It is when we forget them that they are truly gone. Until we see them again we can hold those memories close, and know that those that go ahead prepare a place for us and await our stories. Skal.
whenever i listen i remember bjorn ironside raising his sword after taking arrows, and marching with his army even close to death, thank you for such a wonderful series!
Rip Ivar
He died a good death. Fighting.
Many people will complain that his death was unsatisfying as he had many unsolved issues at hand. The fact that his death came so quickly makes it more tragic and, for me at least, far more emotional than a good guy victory.
who are you talking about?
The show made his death make sense and I do believe that the second half of season 4, leading up to his death (when returns to Kattegat, sails to England with Ivar, talks with Ecbert, etc, his convo with the Seer, etc.) is probably the absolute peak of the shows quality and probably the best written and acted selection of episodes in the genre

Heard this live 2 days ago. Eyes couldn't stop staring at the band and the sky
Hearing this poem
In this form
In the original language
In my favourite scene ever to be put on the small screen
Was beyond what I ever could have thought to ask.
But it was glorious, brothers.
All hail king Björn Járnsíða. The bear was greated with a horn bigger than Hárs, in his own hall.
What most don't know though this is the actual poem Ragnar spoke to his son's whilst in the snake pit, right before he died.
Catching up on the series, just got to this last night. Beaten, burned, bloody, unarmed, manacled, caged, hung 20 feet in the air, and they still feared him enough to set a guard of 40 spears. A bad way to die, but still a good death. Hail Ragnar.
Bjørns death

The very music gives off the feeling of something dying, but desperately trying to stay alive, even though it’s hopeless.
I do believe this may be the best song Einar has done, I've heard this song about 100 times but it never fails to give me goosebumps.
I'm from Norway, long line of Earls and land owners and I listen to this and it's like something lights my blood on fire, like something wants to get out!? I can't explain the feeling?

this is probably the most fitting song for bjorn's death scene, nothing would fit better than this.
Wonderful to listen to this epic work on Vikings season 6, episode 11 yesterday. Hail Bjorn!
