Artist's Comments

Old danish song, written in runes from scandinavia from around year 750

Danish version

"Jeg gik mig ud en sommerdag at høre, fuglesang som at hjertet månne røre.. I de dybe dale, imellem nattergale, og de andre fugle små, der tale.
Da jeg kom ud i græsset det grønne, mødte jeg allerkæresten min den skønne, dine øjne og din stolte mine, har lokket så mang en ungkarl fine. I de dybe dale, mellem nattergale, og de andre fuglesmå..."
--------------------

English version

"I went out one summer morning
To hear the song of the birds, to let it touch my heart

In the deep valleys, amongst the nightingales
and other birds of small, who talks...

When I came out in the green grass
I met my lover the lovely
Your eyes and your pride
have tempted so many a beauty

In the deep valleys, amongst the nightingales
and other birds of small, who talks..."

The song is among others song by the danish band "Sorten Muld" (translates to; black soil) and can be found here [link] if anybode should be interested ^^

Lyrics (c) bards from denmark, long time ago...

This is very pretty. ^^ It was really creative to use the rune writing to keep the song's traditional roots. The detail of the flower is exquisite and highly detailed; looks lovely. ^^ I also like the flowing lines of the 'carvings' behind it. They style is elegant and it has a nice touch of that early Scandinavian art style. :D Nice work!

Well, it's not set to MUSIC, but it was recorded in the Bible. It was originally a song, but sadly, no music survives of it. You can read it, it's a marvelous song, filled with vibrant imagery.
