Re: þat mælti mín móðir (performed by Rauðir fiskar)

It is convenient that you posted this. Recently i have recieved a CD that is
an attampted reconstruction of viking music (Krauka, Vikinga Seidhur) and
those are the words to one of the songs entitled Egils Digt. If anyone
happens to know the words to any of the other songs, i would certainly like
to know.

Also if anyone knows anything about Norse viking age music, i would be
interested in that as well.
