Wardruna - Ormagardskvedi Lyrics
[Excerpt from Ragnars saga loðbrókar.]
Eigi hugðak orma
at aldrlagi mínu
verðr mjök mörgu sinni,
Eigi hugðak orma
at aldrlagi mínu
verðr mjök mörgu sinni,
þats minnst varir sjálfan.
Nú munk nár af bragði
ok nær dýrum deyja.
Gnyðja mundu grísir,
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.
[English translation:]
I did not look to a snake
To be my bane
Things happen very often
To one that one thinks of the least
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
The young pigs would squeal
If they knew the state of the boar
Of the injury done to me
Snakes dig in my flesh
Stab at me harshly
And have sucked on me
Soon now will my body
Die among the beasts

Hallo Leute, das Ende in dieser Version von Snake it Poetry ist sehr gut gelungen. Ich bekomme immer ein Bild in meinem Kopf als wäre mein geliebter Vater gerade in diesem Moment verstorben.Und es kommt fast immer eine Emotion in mir hoch. Der Schluß ist das allerbeste in diesem Lied. Es ist so abrupt zu ende.Exitus.
do guitar tabs exist for this song? or someone with a good ear should make it :)
If you ever find one, I would appreciate a share!
@Jennifer WhelanI figured out parts of it, I just don't have the patience to do the whole thing... it is a simple song though... the first part you start on the B string and play fret 3, 1, 3 then on the high E string 1, 0 then back to B string play fret 3
im not really a mucician I just am a tab playing monkey :(
If you guys are still needing this I have a harp that plays this. It's just 5 notes played in different patterns repeated
I agree.
That's from "Snake pit poety".
I like all the other wardruna albums, but I was waiting for something exactly like this. I absolutely love it.
Bir de ne dediğini anlasam keşke

İnternette sözleri var türkçesi de mevcut. Kral Ragnar’ın ölümünü anlatıyor

Snakepit Poetry
This is voluspa
Skaldic version of voluspa. Wardruna fan since first album and his black metal band that I first knew him from.

No it's not :') but voluspa is awesome too
@impermanent lol they can't read Norwegian apparently
' Orm ' in the title of the song should give it away :')
Yes, it's the Snakepit, it's the meaning of Ormagardskvedi from Old Norsic langulague. Orm is snake, gard is gard, or under the floor, or pit, and skvedi is the song.
