A Viking Kid’s Poem
A Viking Kid’s
Song MP3
Tune: „Oh cara mama mia“, Neapolitan Canzonetta, before1816
(also used for the children´s song "My hat it has three corners"
It’s great to be a Viking kid,
For it is plain to see,
There are a hundred gods
That I can call to me.
There are protective bind runes
That mommy carved for me,
That I can fling at monsters,
And set them all to flee.
Odin watches me in sleep,
And Frigga hears my dreams,
I wake in Sunna’s warm embrace,
And play in Thor’s great fields.
From Frey and Freyja I will learn,
Great Vanic mysteries,
And giants teach me 'bout the things
That were and used to be.
From dwarves I learn to forge and make,
From Norns I learn my fate,
And in the end, I know I have
To keep with Hel a date.
It’s great to be a Viking kid,
For it is plain to see,
I have a hundred gods
For watching over me.

A Viking Kid’s Song
(Song version)
It’s great to be a Viking kid,
For it is plain to see,
There are a hundred gods
That I can call to me.
There are protective bind
runes
That mommy carved for me,
That I can fling at monsters,
And set them all to flee.
Odin watches over my sleep,
And Frigga hears my dreams,
I wake in Sunna’s embrace,
And play in Thor’s great fields.
From Frey and Freyja I`ll
learn,
Great Vanic mysteries,
And giants teach me the things
That were and used to be.
From dwarves I learn to forge,
From Norns I learn my fate,
And in the end, I know I have
To keep with Hel a date.
It’s great to be a Viking kid,
For it is plain to see,
I have a hundred gods
For watching over me.
