Gåte brings Norwegian poems, songs and gidder tunes to the modern audience in the form of folk rock. This song is a 1000 year old poem telling the story of a young girl cursed by her jealous evil step mom to roam the woods as a wolf, and the curse can only be lifted by killing and drinking the blood of her brother. Then one day her step mom rides with her servants in the Forrest and the girl-wolf attacks her, ripping out her heart and by this drinking the blood of her brother (because her stepmom was pregnant) and lifting the curse. You should check out their album iselija. It’s amazing! My favorite tunes are “knut liten og sylvelin” “ fredlysningen” and “sjå attende».
Nice reaction😊 Gåte (gaw-teh) has been a band for years, and Gunnhild (vocalist) was about 13 - 14 years old when they started in 1999. “Ulveham” (wolfskin) is inspired by a dark medieval folklore, and the chorus is inspired by the intro. The intro is an old “kulokk”, and a “kulokk” is how the women calls the cows home from the mountains so they can be milked😊 English lyrics: [Sample: Vocalization; Marit Jensen Lillebuen] [Verse 1] I was such a beautiful maiden My stepmother evil, my mother she died She turned me into a sword and a needle And sent me to the king's estate And the anger my stepmother felt the most That all the stately liked me best [Chorus: Vocalization] [Verse 2] Then she gave me skin like a grey wolf She cursed me to walk the forest alone And never will I bе whole and good Before I drink my brothеrs' blood [Chorus: Vocalization]
Nice reaction! I am so happy I discovered this band. My favourite songs of them are Sjå attende and Sjåaren, but Bannlyst, Kjærleik and Svarteboka are quite popular too.
YOU ARE STUNNING!!

English lyrics:
[Sample: Vocalization; Marit Jensen Lillebuen]
[Verse 1]
I was such a beautiful maiden
My stepmother evil, my mother she died
She turned me into a sword and a needle
And sent me to the king's estate
And the anger my stepmother felt the most
That all the stately liked me best
[Chorus: Vocalization]
[Verse 2]
Then she gave me skin like a grey wolf
She cursed me to walk the forest alone
And never will I bе whole and good
Before I drink my brothеrs' blood
[Chorus: Vocalization]
