Lyrics - translation:
Friends and kin
Friends and kinsfolk met to deliberate
To whom would they marry off their kinswoman this year
Rosy youth
They deliberated
To whom would they marry off their kinswoman this year
We want you to wed the son of a king
Who has more gold than poor Roland has land
Wed the son of a king
Who has more gold than poor Roland has land
On Saturday and Sunday the word it was spread
Monday and Tuesday will show what she gets
Word was spread Monday and Tuesday will show what she gets
On Wednesday and Thursday the wine was made
Friday and Saturday the wedding was cheered
Wine was made Friday and Saturday the wedding was cheered
They drank for days, they drank for two,
But the bride wouldn't to the chamber go
They drank for two
But the bride wouldn't to the chamber go
They drank for days, they drank for three
But the bridal bed she refused for to see
They drank for three
But the bridal bed she refused for to see
Then entered in a poor ship's hand
Wore a blue blouse both tattered and torn
Poor ship's hand
Wore a blue blouse both tattered and torn
He stood at the table and he spoke
I see only masts and the places where they go
And he spoke I see only masts and the places where they go
And the maiden went up to the high loft
And ran down the path to the broad sea shore
Went to the high loft
And ran down the path to the broad sea shore
She ran on the rocks, she ran on tiptoe
But took great care to mind the blue waves below
Ran on tiptoe But took great care to mind the blue waves below
And she was invited on board the ship
And there they bade her drink both mead and wine
On board ship
And there they bade her drink both mead and wine
I see I see on your white fingers small
The wedding band has not been there for long
White fingers small
The wedding band has not been there for long
I see I see on your golden hair
That before yesterday the wreath was not there
Golden hair
That before yesterday the wreath was not there
I see I see on your lily white breasts
That small children they have not consoled
Lily white breasts
That small children they have not consoled
And now the maiden lays at poor Roland's side
She feels neither sorrow nor anguish
Rosy youth
At poor Roland's side
Garmarna about the track:
This is one of our favourite ballads, and it has been recorded several times before. The melody of the tune is rather odd; perhaps it is older than most of the other medieval ballads. The lyrics tell the story of a maiden who marries the King's son, but refuses to go to bed with him. When a message arrives that poor Roland, her true love, is about to leave the harbour on his ship, she runs away from the rich Prince and sails away with Roland. Видеоклипы
My wife and I saw Garmarna about 15 years ago at the Nordic Roots Festival at the Cedar Cultural Center. Couldn't understand a word, but they can freaking *play*. They tore it up. It was a hell of a show.
I translated it as best I could. It's kind of silly. Doesn't read well in English. My Swedish is really bad as I left over 40 years ago and didn't keep it up.
Skoal!
I love her voice so much.
Her voice and their language, really beautiful !
I love her.....))))
Trudy Glen Riding Robin Hood hey don't get to horny respect ok
fuck I didn't expect to find so many simps here
@@theshooster420 they're everywhere you'll find one if you look hard and long enough
I just absolutely love nordic folk music
This band has its own unique style and it's hypnotizing
These guys are truly a unique band with a sound that's completely their own! Cannot understand why they're not 'bigger' than they are...
This is 'authentic', melancholic Nordic music, with traditional Nordic instruments and some times also uniquely old Nordic songs, or their own interpretations of one - not seldom with a 'twist' of a larger or smaller element of 'electronica'. A truly unique, but sadly underappreciated band....I guess they were 15 years ahead of their times, or perhaps 15 years too late..?
Or maybe, just maybe - they were the ones who inspired this current 'surge' for Nordic music that we see currently...who knows? (Either way - they are in my book at least the 'originals'!)
Скока лет слушаю и каждый раз волосы в жилах стынут. Охренительно красивая песня!!!
The 90's vibes are strong here.
It's funny how she suppresses a smile as she closes her eyes at the beginning of the video and smiles at the end as if she is relieved to not have to play "serious face" anymore.
This smile się so precious, so natural, beauty incarnate.
@@hubertmaresz1869 true that.
I would have done the same if the camera man was getting all angles of me.
Sweden here, welcome! Swedish and Scandinavian folk music is among the most melodic and exciting traditions, and way too unknown internationelly (even if kind of all the swedish hitmakers, from ABBA up to Max Martin and beyond are inspired by it)! Garmarna is one of the greatest folk music (cross-over) groups (even if most swedish people, who aren’t into folk music, probably haven’t heard of them)! I met the singer in like 2007 and her sign this album (that’s how long ago it was; an autograph!😏😁) from ’96 or if it was ’97. Vänner och fränder is a great song from the same album.
Vänner och _fränder,_ as in friends and family.
@@elisaa9981 Autocorrect, thanks for the notice!
Oh my God!!! Extremely cool folk sound! 👍🏻 Respect from Russia!!!
Опана, дарова, шо ты тут делаешь друк
Вот именно, что ты тут забыл. Слушай рускую музыку
Люблю эту команду давно, а подругу бесит.
This band comes from special region that has been both Norway and Sweden. And that was independent until 1177. It is extremely isolated and rural and at the same time connected to the global market through the port of Trondheim. The singer, Emma Härdelin, is like an ethnographic study of how people from that region look. I have met several people who have their ancestry from Tröndelag or Jämtland-Härjedalen as we say in Sweden. And they have that exact same look.
So, the songs are extremely traditional, and at the same time, connected to general European folk. Because new impulses were coming in from port of Trondheim.
I met the hermaneling song years ago and I loved it when I heard the voice of this woman ... Greetings from Argentina
Habe diese Band auf dem Festival-Mediaval 2023 erlebt. Erstklassiger Auftritt, erstklassige Musik!
Saw this band at Festival-Mediaval 2023 in Germany. Brilliant performance, brilliant music.
This and Bläck were played as mine and my wife's entrance music at our wedding 😊
Fantastic!
Язык очень красивый. Хоть я не понимаю не слова, однозначно мне это нравится❤
Awesome!!! 🇨🇭🫡
I can't understand one word, but this sounds so amazing. :-)
The lyrics are equally amazing. De drucko i dagar de drucko i tre, men inte ville bruden åt sängarna se xDD
Also hear Herr Manelig
Those ‘R’s are amazing in her voice !
Du bist dyraken - google v pomoch))))
Swedish is a Germanic language, and many words are similar or recongnisable with English.
@@maksphoto78 true, I've been studying English and German and I can catch the meaning of some Swedish words
Garmarna !! Thank you so much for your music! I don't understand Swedish, but the music, singing style, melody... it's just so amazing, it fills my heart with joy and longing for soemthing more than just this life, some nostalgia, untold beauty... I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR MUSIC!! (btw thanks for giving translations to your lyrics!! :) )
This is one of my favorite songs. I've been listening to Garmarna and other similar Swedish groups since I was about 10. I'm 32 now.
do you know any similar scandi songs? with vocal polyphony? I only know some songs by Skamöld (Vallhöll, Aras). But other than that it seems unusual for scandinavian/nordic music
@MagicMachineGun I'm still alive so it's not too late! :D Thanks!
Suggest me some songs like that "Herr something..." Glad to know you both are alive. :E
My 9 year old granddaughter says it is kind of peaceful music.
I happened to drive att into Sundsvall tonight, where I’ll stay the night for the first time ever. And the town happenings to be 400 years this year. This is the perfect record and song that I played when entering the city!
Respect from Italy ! Honor to this ancient culture that they brings through these wonderful sounds.Total and sincere admiration for this beautiful band ! :-) Grattis! Tack!!
Listen to my Swedish opera then (with sbtitles in Italian): www.nyopera.se/italiano/index.html
@@westman720 Inte riktigt samma sak... säkerligen bra er som gillar detta men Garmarna är Garmarna
Beautiful voice beautiful language awesome music world music treasure
This is what you call proper music not the crap you hear nowadays!
Godbless Sweden & your beautiful country & culture! Love from England ❤✌
when you listen to crap, it´s your fault, don´t blame it on the music, there is so much brilliant stuff being made constantly - you have the net, use it!
btw. i saw garmarna live in 2000 and they were great indeed, haha... :-)
(and i also saw genesis live in the 70s, "the lamb lies down on broadway", the last tour with peter gabriel - do you happen to know them? if you ask the fans of them they´ll say: "this is what you call proper music, not the crap of the 90s!")
love and greetings from germany 🙋♂
@@friesiamans1966 na klar... i know them! ❤✌
@@parmykumar8592 among meinen neusten heroes sind binkbeats und connor shafran, zwei meister der loopstation... :-)
try "it´s not about looping", a nice little portrait of binkbeats who i consider a nice guy and a brilliant musician...
We hear this NOWADAYS 🤣
Шикарная песня! Шикарный, шикарный клип!
Einfach wunderschön. Love it.❤
I played this on the Stafford FM Folk Show whilst covering for Gary. A great peice of music
i love her R´s like her smile in the end..
Garmarna 2019, never close.
Beautiful voice and I love Swedish! 🇸🇪❤️😍
The best thing i have heard for a long time :) All the best from Iceland
This is my favorite song by her. Just beautiful music.
It's band not a her
Красавцы! Песни их давно слышал, но тогда ещё ютюба не было чтоб видео смотреть. Thanks for the video!
оо русскоязычный товарищ!!! Поддерживаю!
Да ,хороши.
да скандивы в словянах засели ещё с Рюриковичей
Тречок прямо культовый как по мне
Never gets old!
Such a great voice
I love how the language sounds. I want to learn it. I was trying to learn it from books for a while, and lyrics translations. Got out a tape at one point. Need to take a class.
It's older swedish however.. People don't speak like this.. The rolled R for example is something no one does.
Or some of the conjugations and words aren't used anymore aswell
About those rolling R´s , it depends of wich part of Sweden you are from . . . :) .
It's fuggin SEXY!
The Last Crusader Well yes we do. If you don' understand this song you are not from scandinavia. We all talk exactly like this with the rolling rrr's and all. Exept Denmark,skåne and Stockholm : )
þú ættir!
Esta canción está genial! Me encantó! Este grupo me encanta.
Saludos desde México
Love the music from usa
This is SO EPIC, i love Garmarna.
Sweden should select this wonderful group for the esc 2021
I really love their musical universe : a mixture of traditionnel and moderne musical
And they sing on their own language
Sweden would present something new different and wonderful
Just get rid of this fucking show. Every real talent is wasted there!
Esc is the festival of POP music, a song contest made for hits... how can this be any pop? This is art and art is not for everyone.
Garparna, sarek and timotej all tried.
@@PennyAfNorbergdont forget nordman
@@RoffeKingson Maybe but not enough folkie for my test.
Pure beauty of folk.
Brilliant performance. Lovely to hear international folk music.
Regie awesome !!!
She has a such Beautifool voice. I really didn't understand any word, but this song sounds sweet. Thank you from Italy
😍😍😍 dette her tar sjelen min langt tilbake i tid ❤
Nordic music the best !
Шведы жгут!! Обожаю эту группу!! Это они подсадили меня на фолк-рок : Р
Emma it's beautiful and all the instruments .
I have no idea what she is singing about, but I love it.
Swedish..good ! I like Scandinavian music
cold mountains, good live music and a good tavern with good beer. thats all i expect.
I don’t usually comment on music videos, but I’ve listened to this so many times and fell in love. Absolutely love this band. Love from Israel ❤
One of my favourite songs!
Älskar denna låten så mycket.
Quinna !! I do adore your vоcaliste !!!

Esta musica es muy hermosa aunque no entienda nada 😁 es la magia de la musica
It comes full circle.
Manager: "For this video clip your budget is 15 €"
Band:"Ok"
The budget was something like that. We had 15 minutes of 16mm film to do it on. At that time we had borrowed money from everyone to finish the album and had no idea if we would ever could pay back...
@@Massproduktion 16mm film nice ! State of the art ! 👍😁
