Ragnars Kvæði lyrics
Hvørki fekk hann Ragnar kongur
Frið um nátt rógv ella dag
Fyrr enn hann hevði knørrin smíða
Suður yvir hav
Títtir við streingjum berjast dreingir
Syngur í oddameingi
Klovna taka tvinni skjøldur
Ørnin dregur á veingir
Deyðir detta dreingir niður á svørðin
Frúgv steig inn um snekkjunnar bor
Tað mundi ongan vara
Orm bar hon í eyga á sær
Dóttir Sjúrðar snara
Sjúrður frægi var faðir hennar
Hann stóð í ormsins blóði
Ásla vard hon kallað sjálv
Og Brynhild var hennara móðir

"Ragnars Kvæði is a traditional Faroese ballad about Ragnar Loðbrók, the legendary king of Denmark during the seventh century. This melody was preserved on a very old recording in the Faroese from sometime around the middle of the 1900s, and the text in some Faroese manuscripts from the mid 1800s. The original ballad is very long, over 100 verses. Here we have only three verses, taken from the part about where Ragnar meets Aslaug. This part is a migratory legend with parallels in many cultures around the world"
