My Mother Told Me
[Intro]
My mother told me
Someday I would buy
A galley with good oars
Sail to distant shores
Sail to distant shores

[Verse 1]
Þat mælti mín móðir
At mér skyldi kaupa
Fley ok fagrar árar
Fara á brott með víkingum
Standa upp í stafni
Stýra dýrum knerri
Halda svá til hafnar
HÇ«ggva mann ok annan
HÇ«ggva mann ok annan

[Chorus]
My mother told me
Someday I would buy
A galley with good oars
Sail to distant shores
My mother told me
Someday I would buy
A galley with good oars
Sail to distant shores
I sail to distant shores
[Verse 2]
Þél höggr stórt fyr stáli
Stafnkvígs á veg jafnan
Út með éla meitli
Andærr jötunn vandar
En svalbúinn selju
Sverfr eirar vanr þeiri
Gestils ölpt með gustum
Gandr of stál fyr brandi
Gandr of stál fyr brandi

[Chorus]
My mother told me
Someday I would buy
A galley with good oars
Sail to distant shores
My mother told me
Someday I would buy
A galley with good oars
Sail to distant shores
I sail to distant shores

[Bagpipe Solo]

[Outro]
My mother told me
Somеday I would buy
A galley with good oars
Sail to distant shores
Sail to distant shores
