My mother told me
Someday I will buy
Galley with good oars
Sail to distant shores
Stand up on the prow
Noble barque I steer
Steady course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
Hew many foe-men
My mother told me
Someday I will buy
Galley with good oars
Sail to distant shores
Stand up on the prow
Noble barque I steer
Steady course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
Hew many foe-men
My mother told me
Someday I will buy
Galley with good oars
Sail to distant shores
Stand up on the prow
Noble barque I steer
Steady course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
Hew many foe-men
My mother told me
Someday I will buy (buy)
Galley with good oars
Sail to distant shores
Stand up on the prow
Noble barque I steer (steady)
Steady course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
Hew many foe-men

Here is my rendition of “My Mother Told Me”, from the show Vikings / popularized on YouTube in association with Assassin’s Creed Valhalla (based on the poem from Egil’s Saga). I absolutely loved the harmonies in this piece; thank you to those who recommended this song in the comment section!
