Another great song by the English band Forefather.

Lyrics:

Miri it is while summer ilast

With fugheles song

Oc nu neheth windes Blast

And weder strong

Ei, Ei! What this night is long!

And ich with wel michel wrong

Soregh and murn and fast*

Miri it is 'tween dark and dark

This fleeting stage

'Till we return back to the night

From whence we came

And henceforth our spears take aim

Hope to win eternal fame

Hear our names e'er more

(Thanks to bub for this part) Translates as:

Merry it is, while summer lasts with birds' song...

But then comes the blasting wind & strong weather...

Aye aye, but this night is long!

And I, having been greatly wronged, sorrow & mourn & fast.

In Old English, summer is sumor or sumer depending on the period and dialect.

Awesome song. I love how they sing it in Middle English. I wonder if they will do a verse from Chaucer.

This isn't Anglo Saxon, that is Old English. This is middle English. This is a combination of Old English, Normdic French and Latin. Right as the Language started to come together.

Can anyone suggest ways to learn Anglo Saxon, it's always nice to find one's ancestors and country roots...

I think people back then were generally tougher than people now.
