Description

"Drømde mik en drøm i nat um silki ok ærlik pæl", meaning something like "Dreamt myself a dream last night, of silk and fine cloth". The text is written in Old East Norse, and appears at the end of Codex Runicus, a transcript of Scanian Law, the oldest Danish provincial law (Scania, or Skåne, now a part of Sweden, was then a province of Denmark).

Taken from the somewhat misleadingly titled 2016 album "Ice and Longboats - Ancient Music of Scandinavia" by Ensemble Mare Balticum, Åke Egevad and Jens Egevad (of Sweden). Performing on these tracks are Ute Goedecke, Per Mattsson and Aino Lund Lavoipierre.

Equally somewhat misleading tags for clicks and going absolutely viral:
