Lyrics
Welund him be wurmanwræces cunnade,
anhydig eorlearfoþa dreag,
hæfde him to gesiþþesorge ond longaþ,

siþþan hine Niðhad onnede legde,
swoncre seonobendeon syllan monn.
Þæs ofereode,þisses swa mæg!

Beadohilde ne wæshyre broþra deaþ
on sefan swa sarswa hyre sylfre þing,
þæt heo gearoliceongieten hæfde

Þæs ofereode,þisses swa mæg!

We þæt Mæðhildemonge gefrugnon

Þæs ofereode,þisses swa mæg!

Deodric ahteþritig wintra
Mæringa burg;þæt wæs monegum cuþ.

Very Avant-Garde
Very avant-garde piece I really enjoyed listening to this. I like it when
the music move into the realm of Art and departs from the standard
fare. Brings back my days of listening to John Cage. Very nice addition
to Mysti piece.-JAC

VOCALS?
The vocals are off key! Background music is cool and soundtrack like! Time for a bowl of cereal! Fruit loops I think!

Mist over Autumn fields
This is so atmospheric - the vocals are very fragile but I like that. Curious
to know what the words mean.

Yay, Elfie!
I'm so glad you put some vocals to this! :)
I agree with urb --that you need not be tentative in your vocals. You have
a lovely voice.

The vocals, solemn and chant-like, have almost a dirge-like quality to
them. I can imagine this sung in a great stone-and-timber hall.
The Anglo-Saxon is very cool to hear, too.
Nice work on this!

Yay, Elfie!
Thanks everyone!! Biz, if you liste to Anglo-saxon music, you'll find a lot of it is actully like that.... ;)

The lyrics mean:

Welund tasted misery among snakes.
The stout-hearted hero endured troubles,
had sorrow and longing as his companions,
cruelty cold as winter - he often found woe
Once Nithad laid restraints on him,
supple sinew-bonds on the better man.
That went by; so can this.

To Beadohilde, her brothers' death was not
so painful to her heart as her own problem
which she had readily perceived
that she was pregnant; nor could she ever
foresee without fear how things would turn out.
That went by, so can this.

We have learnt of the laments of Mathild,
of Geat's lady, that they became countless
so that the painful passion took away all sleep.
That went by, so can this.

For thirty years Theodric possessed
the Maring's stronghold; that was known to many.
