Herr Mannelig - Garmarna

- Sorry for the absence, work and studying really takes a toll.
This one is a Swedish ballad first written down in the 1850s, and tells the story of a young squire who is tempted by a troll.
It's also implied that the troll is actually a pagan woman, and that the song symbolizes a young Christian man resisting material gain that would come with apostasy.
Note 1: Palfreys are luxury horses used for riding.
Note 2: The "Knuckers" are the closest I could come to the "Neckers" of the original. The Neckers, or Nixies, were Germanic water spirits that would lure passerbys and drown them. A similar spirit existed in Northumbrian folklore by the name of Knucker.

Lyrics:
1. Bittida en morgon innan solen upprann
Innan fåglarna började sjunga
Bergatrollet friade till fager ungersven
Hon hade en falskeliger tunga
Herr Mannelig Herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gärna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
2. Eder vill jag gifva de gångare tolf
Som gå uti rosendelunde
Aldrig har det varit någon sadel uppå dem
Ej heller betsel uti munnen
Herr Mannelig Herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gärna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
3. Eder vill jag gifva de qvarnarna tolf
Som stå mellan Tillö och Ternö
Stenarna de äro af rödaste gull
Och hjulen silfverbeslagna
Herr Mannelig Herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gärna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
4. Eder vill jag gifva ett förgyllande svärd
Som klingar utaf femton guldringar
Och strida huru i strida vill
Stridsplatsen skolen i väl vinna
Herr Mannelig Herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gärna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
5. Eder vill jag gifva en skjorta så ny
Den bästa i lysten att slita
Inte är hon sömnad av nål eller trå
Men virkat av silket det hvita
Herr Mannelig Herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gärna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
6. Sådana gåfvor jag toge väl emot
Om du vore en kristelig qvinna
Men nu så är du det värsta bergatroll
Af Neckens och djävulens stämma
Herr Mannelig Herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gärna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
7. Bergatrollet ut på dörren sprang
Hon rister och jämrar sig svåra
Hade jag fått den fager ungersven
Så hade jag mistat min plåga

She doesn't honestly want to be with him, as it says in the song, her mouth is full of lies
@@ahumanfromtexas but she goes away weeping when rejected, she may be telling lies, but maybe she truly wants to be with him, at least that's what I got out of the song
@@felipedejesusalarconjaime6427 She's not weeping because of rejected love, she's weeping because without a Christian man any chance of salvation is lost: her reason of weeping is selfish. As the troll said: ''Had I managed to get that handsome young man, my plight would surely end''. And as Louis above has said as well, ''her mouth was full of lies.''
Troll: Marry me, yes or no? The worst you can say is no, after all.
Mannelig: Never, you disgusting child of the devil!
I love our flag, that golden Cross juxtaposed to the blue background. There is actually a legend behind it. During St. Erik IX's crusade against the finns, he is to have seen a golden Cross in the sky as a sign (much like St. Constantine).
Swedish flag was always my favourite. Peace be with you from Spain.
It's jolly good all Nordic countries have similar flags, only with different colours used. Maybe I'm biased, living under such a flag, but I find it more interesting than the bicolor and tricolor band type flags more common in Europe.

I am not a Catholic myself but love this channel. There are A LOT of issues with most Protestant Churches but to be fair with the Catholic Church at present time as well. I see a lot of dead ends and half truths in my own Protestant Church experiences and seek out teaching from my brothers in Christ whether they be Catholic, Orthodox or Protestant. In my opinion there is one true Church and the western world has gone horribly off course centuries before my birth. I don't have all the answers for you today but I learn a lot through this channel and much solace, hope and comfort in the songs he posts. Blessings in Christ.
@Wilhelm Monke ugh protestant modernist
puritan? good those good yanks! not like now
@@neilwhitaker6284 Which church has (and uses) the oldest traditions? I heard from one that they say is still in the dark ages
As a Swedish speaker, i noticed there are some wrong meaning.
1.För det jag bjuder så gärna doesnt mean (for that I would gladly offer you gifts) it would be more accurate " because i want to offer you very gladly."There are no gifts mentioned in that sentence. She says that she REALLY REALLY wants to offer him to marry her.
2. Som klingar utaf femton guldringar doesnt mean that it" sounds like fifteen gold rings" it is made of fifteen gold rings so "klingar" which is referred to when keys make noise so when sword hits the floor it makes that noise. It doesnt sound like fifteen gold rings, it is MADE out of 15 gold rings.
3. "Her mouth full of lies" this sentence i would say could be correctly translated. But if we translated it exactly like it is written (hon hade en falskeliger tunga) it would be "she had a false tongue". But it could be translated into mouth full of lies.
loved this folk song, especially this rendition. but not sure how to interpret it. the first half of the song paints the troll a deceitful. untrustworthy, figure and reinforces that by how the knight rejects her. but when the troll cries out she said "her plight would be over" as if he had loved her she would not be foul and deceitful. Is she a demonic monster trying to lead the knight to peril or repentant and wishing to be loved?
@@kingrichardiii6280 The Swedes make good literature and shit like that, I'm not entirely sure but this song doesn't just depict pagans like the woman mentioned as a troll a Wicca pagan follower as "deceitful" but it's more like a song of how does temptation gets a hold of a man which can be applicable in modern times. About the "end her plight" I'm not sure about that but my guess is it is probably a reference of her avoiding misery
@@user-pd1uc1ce9e If you were to ask me it just sounds like a Christian man rejecting a pagan woman who was lonely and wealthy.
The pagan wanted to marry the Christian so that she would be accepted back into society and not ostracized for her paganism, but Herr Mannelig refuses because he is a principled Christian and believes it's wrong to marry a pagan.
God Bless You All through these hard times. Deus Vult, and AVE MARIA!
Amen
Sir Mannelig the Chad

Mannelig means just man or male, its not his surname or sth xd
Just to add a little nuance, for those of you who can't understand Swedish: When the troll-woman runs away at the end crying, a more literal translation of what she says is that if she had been able to get the young man, she would have been able to avoid her (future) torment; this suggests that she understands that eternal punishment awaits her, but she thought that she could avoid it by seducing and marrying a Christian man---which is not really how it works, but you can't blame her for trying, I guess!
The Christian man in question had resolve, so he could've converted her and saved a soul from eternal damnation, instead of condemning her for being born into a tribe of pagans.
I think the thing is, trolls are believed to have no souls, as they are not human, so they wouldn't have eternal torment but eternal nothingness after death, but by marrying a human they could gain a soul and have eternal life.
Unfortunately they try to do this through deception and bribery rather than a genuine desire to love or repent. They don't have eternal souls like humans, after all, only an earthly mind. They are more like very intelligent animals in that regard.
@@sudonim7552 How else was she supposed to convince him to marry her if she is an ugly troll?!
@@sudonim7552being a sub five and a woman is torment enough. Also trolls have souls but they don’t go to the afterlife of men. We don’t know where they go. Probably they will re emerge after the world is remade in a more perfect form and they will have to contend with unfallen man.
No simping
Thank God its been a long time
Trolls have been real quiet since this dropped
The most notable thing about this song is that it’s the antithesis of all modern storytelling, any modern writer, no matter who, would have the protagonist end up with the exotic non-human, it’s embarrassingly predictable. We are truly blessed to have this channel as a sanctuary of music in a sea of degradation.

The temptations of the troll-woman are not too unlike the temptations Satan offered to Christ Himself. Ultimately, just as Satan falsely promised Christ the entire world if He would but fall down and worship Satan, so too does the troll offer riches to the noble knight if he will but abandon his faith for her, which is what the marriage to her really means.
Vi gör lite Trolleri
Satan didn't know that christ is already the owner, Greater and God of this world.
Satan dared to tempt christ but christ himself he was never temped
Then why does she cry and weep in the end? And say "If he married me my plight would surely end"? Seems like either she has been affected by a curse or is seeking salvation. She never asked him to renounce his faith.
Yes, not that she never offer him her love.
She could have converted but didnt and instead spazzed out and blamed him. He also saw through her lies and called her out on them:

The song is simply amazing. Just the sound or rather the "feeling" of words is a pure pleasure (but maybe it's just an exotic of it for someone who comes from the family of slavic languages). Anyway, I remember that when I heard it for the first time I was really concerned if it's some pagan song that could be dangerous for the soul. But when I read the text I liked it even more.
But for me the main melody, will be always an "Old Camp" from Gothic 1...
Hello brother, you can tell me If listen musics of other religions is Sin?
@@luizumhumano7111 in my opinion it's not a sin per se, but it comes with some danger. Especially if it's not just some neutral music but created by someone with different faith (for example Bach) but music created for religious purposes. The most obvious example is satanist music which was created to worship demons. But I think there is a lot of danger in pagan music too. Also the protestant songs brings a lot of danger but in a different way. They seem to worship the God but they can also mix truth with some minor lies. So, as I said it's not a sin but we should keep in mind that everything we listen to, watch, read etc. has some influence on us and in long term can lead us to false.
@@aswqqwsa9399 got it, i'll try to avoid it then but i really like some islamic songs lol, thanks for answering me
No you're right it is pure pleasure even to my english speaking ears
What is wrong with the music of the old gods?
Wait, so if I summarize this song, it's basically:
Troll woman: Hey, mr handsome knight, would you like to do something fun with me? I pay you. 😏
Knight: No thanks bro. I'm a Christian. 😒
Troll women: 😢
(Not gonna lie. It's cool)
Yes, but its also about rejecting materialistc wealth and not bcoming an apostate
This is a very reduccionist interpretation of the poem, sorry, you lost something big and beauty.
This is chillingly timely, as I've just heard of yet another husband and his children being abandoned by the feminist woman he had chosen to marry. We all owe it to our children to ascertain, first and foremost, that our spouses are virtuous, pious people.
Ironically I thought this song was originally a Pagan Viking one. How wrong am i ! - It's origin is on a christian man refusing to marry a troll because she is not christian.
shes a demon not many things can be worse than that
There are no songs preserved from viking times.
@@OggeViking This is not necessarily true. Poems were often sung and were the songs of the time. Völuspá is one example - beowulf i'm sure was another
@@romainvicta3076 We don't know that for sure either. What we can say for sure is that our main source (Poetic Edda) is from medieval times, and the rest is based on speculation. Beowulf on the other hand, is most likely older. But we still don't know if it was sung or if it was popular by any means. So I'm taking your claim of being "sure" of something with a grain of salt. I'll rather listen to the scholarly consensus and their debates.
@@OggeViking yes you are right ; but it could be a good possibility considering theatre and the long tradition of singing that goes along with it in alot of cultures. Its not out of the realm of reality
*Magnifique !!! Cette chanson m'a transportée !*
Always thought that the troll was a allegory for a pagan noblewoman.
trollkarl in swedish means male magician (karl by itself means man) so troll is magician/witch.
Thats actually a smart way to look at it. By this time I know troll in this context stands for mage but I didn't see it that way. Thank you for this perspective.
@K. N. Vi gör nalta trolleri

Trolls are a facinating concept in medieval folklore. It is believed after the fall of the angels who became demons, some were sent to earth and took a material form. One of these are trolls, who stole men's children because of their jealousy that men can attain eternal salvation.

Scandinavia an incredible land full of stories that one can only think that they belong to fairy tales or legends of ancient times that only the hyperboria could have ever been told in said lands.
Therefore, they became brave men and women who, seeking to escape the decline of their world, Ragnarok, which not even their gods, forces of nature incarnate could.
They looked for a new future in the seas mounted on their dragons they explored all the world that they could.
But as warriors and pirates they plundered lands which would without thinking give them a new future.
There they found yet a new god which was one and three at the same time, a god who defeated death and who was not a tribal god that was worshiped by countless peoples such as the Byzantine heirs of the Hellenic tradition, the Welsh heirs of the mythical adventures of King Arthur, the Gaelics who were the only ones worthy of the land of Eire after facing and seeing the constant invaders who wanted it or their distant cousins who embraced this new god who achieved feats that not even Thor achieved even in his cusp then history would change forever to see the clash of two worlds forever.
Beautiful song
Glad you guys are back!
Me encantó la letra y la música... ¡¡Me fascinó que el Católico (así se les dice a los Cristianos ahora, pero los protestantes han usurpado últimamente este nombre) hubiera respondido tan sencillo pero enérgico!! No se casará con el demonio... ¡Él es todo de Jesús! ¡Viva Jesús! ¡Viva María Inmaculada!
Awesome 💯💯💯 I love the purity.
I may be orthodox, but holy fuck is this BEAUTIFUL! Swedish girls sing equally as good folk/ethno songs as Serbian girls!
Greetings from Serbia to the christian brethren of Rome! I shall wish you what every Serb always wishes to anyone, and that is good health and happiness! That comes above all else!
Don’t represent us poorly by swearing.
Hello my orthodox brother. It seems your belief in the Septuagint is right all along. Us catholics will have to fix some of our bibles that has fallen to the errors of the protestants reliance on the masoretic text
Content que nous ayons pu convertir ces maudits païens. Ça fait de belles chansons.
Oui, Amen!
