- This is just a small excerpt of the 4000 lines contained with in the ballad of Roland, a Frankish nobleman and army commander returning from Iberia, where he and his men were ambushed and killed. It is worth noting that this song was originally written in French and not Norwegian, where the first record of this song in French was in the 1100s, while the Norwegian translation sprung up in the late 19th century.

Roland : so you are telling me even vikings gonna sing my epic death...
all of us : yeah
After all Franks and Norses and even Saxons were all brothers and shared same Germanic roots and culture :)
Widukind king of saxons : yeahhhh well about that ....
Well, Ogier the Dane was one of Charlemagne's generals and was Norse.
I believe it is part of Karlamagnussaga written for King Haakon V of Norway that also depicted Roland and the Paladins. I may be wrong though.
Edit: the description actually says that this is a 19th century translation to Norwegian, so nevermind.
@@sinaaafshar4154 Yeah... The saxons werent treated that well...
Just occurred to me that the death of Boromir is an homage to Roland.
Tolkien took a lot of inspiration from medieval folklore and stories
Oh shit your comment changed my vision of LOTR xD Gondor may be the Frankish Empire !
That's kind of what I've always thought. For some reason, I've always thought of Gondor as Frankish and Rohan as Saxon.
@@caedmonnoeske3931 Rohan is apparently Tolkien's attempt at making a Saxon cavalry-culture and they are supposed to act a lot like the saxons so you might well be right there
@@caedmonnoeske3931 I always saw Gondor as the Byzantine Empire and Arnor as the Holy Roman Empire. The crowning Aragorn is essentially the union of the Western and Eastern Roman Empires, or in his case, of the Western and Eastern Numenorean successor kingdoms. Rohan is inarguably an equestrian version of Anglo-Saxon society.
A Norwegian rendition of a French epic written in England about a Breton fighting in Spain in service to a Germanic king likely born in Belgium.
Truly a beautiful piece of European heritage.
are you sure he was Breton ?
Even if he was military governor of the Breton March, it doesn't mean he was Breton. The Breton March was even against Brittany
Killed by the Basques
Charlemagne wasn’t German but whatever

@@NB-or8rs Thats why he said germanic and not german
For those wanting context for the some of the lines:
*_The Heathens fell at Roland's sword, like plants fall for a good scythe_*
The name of Roland's sword, Durandal, begins with a French dur- stem, meaning "hard". It breaks down in Frankish into durant + dail, renderable in English as "strong scythe" or explained in more detail to mean "a scimitar or scythe which holds, up, resists, endures".
The legend said that before dying he threw Durandal in the air with so much force that it broke a cliff. You can see the sword of the legend in the cliff in the church of the french city of Rocamadour
@@gaspardfrileux1816 Don't forget that before that, he tried to destroy the sword, to prevent it from falling into Saracen hands, by swinging it at a rock, but due to its neigh indestructible nature and unnaturally sharp edge, the swing created the hundred foot gash now called Roland's Breach. It's also said that Durandul was either made by Wayland the Smith or given by an angel. Either way, Durandul is a legendary sword whose might could not be matched by any other blade.
SILENCE HEATHEN, STRONG SCYTHE
I remember hearing that name “Durandal” in a movie and it’s also the name of a French anti-runway bomb. Of course inspired by the sword. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matra_Durandal

This is a short Norwegian ballad about Roland. The Old French epic poem "Chanson de Roland" ("Lay of Roland") is a completely different and far longer text. The Norwegian ballad may be inspired by the epic poem but is a piece of art in its own right.
Thank you so much for pointing this out! So sad that the text under the video is misleading.
I wonder if Warren Zevon got the idea for his song "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner" from this song. The Roland from Zevon's song was Norwegian.

It's really good
Although Roland lived in the 8th century, the song of Roland (which was actually a poem, one of the first using the "French" language of the time and not Latin) dates from the central Middle Ages (11th-12th centuries).
Same
Today, August 15 2023, is the 1,245th anniversary of Roland's stand.
Roland - Is French
Norewegians - "Let's make a song about a legendary hero who beat up our enemies, while being our enemy."
The song of Roland is actually the catholic (maybe even Christian) epic. It is to Christianity what the Iliad was to the greeks and the Eneiad was to the Romans
@@sephikong8323 Yeah, but it's known from being from the Matter of France.
@@ThomasStephenForster What I am saying is that the song transcends the national borders and instead of being a national epic, it is a cultural and religious epic, especially during the later part of the middle ages where it was used as a model for chivalry and virtue and influenced all of Catholic Europe (and it's when this Norwegian version started to pop up, before that it was indeed pretty much restricted to the kingdoms that popped up from the Carolingian empire)
And in addition to everything said, the Franks were very highly viewed among all europeans, pagans and christians alike, since the time of Clovis. Unlike what nowaday view is, during the so-called "viking age", the trully "warlike" nation were not the scandinavians (who were much more merchant-like and occasionaly pirates than warriors) but the frankish, as they were the more bellicose people around aside of being the most powerfull of all (the furthermost reason as to why they were so much renowned).
For all Middle Age, France would keep the image of being not necessarly the strongest state (this they competed with the HRE emperors), but as the paramont of bravest nation unified under king and religion (despite many civil wars). The figure of Philippe Augustus who defeated Otto of Brunswick in the battle of Bouvines displayed the image that France was a "ordened kingdom", as it respected the trinity in all matter: A country, a folk and a king all together united as nobles, clergy and commoners. This was the model for any european kingdom to follow, for the kings of France held a great power centralised through divine right around a king who had the noblest ascendency around (he was the successor of Charlemagne, from whom, -as they claimed- they still retained the sword "Joyeuse" -Happy-). All kings around aspired to held similar manner in their own domain (and in fact many time they were actually stronger than France... but in Middle Age, this would always be temporary, for in the long run, it is true to see that France was indeed the most stable state in Europe).
Roland was Frankish, not French. They are related but different. The Franks were a Germanic people who lived in what is now the Netherlands, Belgium, northern France and some southwestern parts of Germany. The French are a Latin people descended from the Gallo-Roman and Germanic peoples living in what is now France. A French identity only began to form later in the Middle Ages after the Frankish empire had fallen apart and it took quite a while before it spread to the Occitans and other peoples living in France.

came here from r1999, didnt expect A Knight lore to be this deep
Library of Ruina Roland fans: First time?
The Norwegian ballad of "Roland and Magnus King" is an "adaption" or smaller version of the much longer Chanson de Roland. Ingen here actually has not done his homework completely, since this song indeed does have its own tradition going back to the middle ages. It was specifically collected by folklorists from the region of the upper Telemark.
My own translation of the full text (only some of which features in the songs you find on YT):
Part I
I.
Six of my dukes are at home
guarding the fair gold,
the other six are in Heathen lands
to test their cold steel!
II.
They hoisted up their sails
high up on the mast,
thence they sail towards Heathen lands
for two work-weeks.
III.
The oars and anchors
gripped the white sand:
there was Roland, cousin of the King,
and believe me that he was the first on land.
Part II
IV.
There was the army of the blueskinned men (Moors)
which filled the vallies and hills:
«there is a battle for Christian lands
the shine is gilding the helm!»
V.
There was the king of the blueskinned men,
who seemed to have lived a long time:
«They have a hard tim Christmen
those who have captured our treasure.
VI.
Can we not our treasure
from this army retrieve,
then we shall do battle on the Roncevaux meadow,
fighting for two days and three!»
Part III
VII.
Fourth came the blueskinned mens warband
which cast a shadow over the sun,
all the men were then frightened,
and bid Roland blow the horn.
VIII.
Roland answered with wrath,
he was froathing at the mouth:
«I shall deal such mighty blows
that it will be talked of until doomsday.»
IX.
They did battle upon the Roncevaux meadow
in two days and three;
the heathens fell to Rolands sword
like wheat before a sharp scythe.
X.
They did battle upon the Roncevaux meadow
and they were all filled with wrath,
the Heathens fell before Rolands sword
like snow melting in the hillsides.
Part IV
XI.
Fourth came the blueskinned mens warband
which cast a shadow over the sun,
all the men were then frightened,
and bid Roland blow the horn.
XII.
Roland answered them mocking,
from him ran blood and froth;
«I shall deal such mighty blows
that it will be talked of until doomsday.»
XIII.
They did battle upon the Roncevaux meadow,
the blood ran like gushing rivers:
the horses could not walk upon the ground,
without tredding on corpses.
XIV.
They did battle upon the Roncevaux meadow,
tired fighting men and women:
the sun could not shine brightly
due the steam of human blood.
Part V
XV.
Fourth came the blueskinned mens warband
which cast a shadow over the sun,
all the men were then frightened,
and bid Roland blow the horn.
XVI.
He sets the horn before blodied lips
and blew hard into it;
the sound travels over hill and mountain
it tore both belts and seams.
XVII.
Again he sets the horn before blodied lips,
and blows into it with wrath;
it makes estates and farmsteads quake
nine days journey away.
XVIII.
This was Roland, the kings cousin,
blowing into the gilded horn:
it shattered walls and marbled stone
and Magnus King’s (Charlemagnes’) towers.
XIX.
Fourth went the sound of the horn,
it sang in many a swordblade -
Roland blew his eyes out of his skull,
so hard that he blew out the heathens’ as well.
XX.
There was Magnus King,
he brust out in tears:
«What has happened to my cousin?
I hear his horn being sounded!»
Part VI.
XXI.
That was Magnus King,
who hurried on his journey:
dead lay Roland defeated
and held in his hands his sword.
XXII.
«Go two among you out
and take with you some men,
and see if you can retrieve
Dvergedolg from Roland’s hand!»
XXIII.
Back came the warriors,
and reported thus:
«we could not take
Dvergedolg from Roland’s hand.»
XXIV.
Fourth stepped Magnus King
with a great sadness:
Roland shoved the sword from himself,
as if he wished the King to have it.
XXV.
Fourth stepped Magnus King
with a great sadness:
Roland shoved the sword from himself,
as if he wished the King to have it.
Part VII
XXVI.
Home came the Magnus King.
They were all beset by grief -
their ship was filled by silver and gold,
the heathens they were dead.
XVII.
«Why do you sit here so saddened?
So drunk yet all without lust?
Have you all come from the sickbed,
...»
XVIII.
«You shall not, Queen, wonder
about our spellbound sorrow»:
fallen has Roland, cousin of the King,
and there-upon ninety warriors.
thanks for bringing up the full version, it saved me.

this song is so chill and cool.❤
I once saw a spindly man carrying a stone larger than his head upon his back. He stumbled beneath the weight, shirtless under the sun, wearing only a loincloth. He tottered down a busy thoroughfare. People made way for him. Not because they sympathized with him, but because they feared the momentum of his steps. You dare not impede one such as this. The monarch is like this man, stumbling along, the weight of a kingdom on his shoulders. Many give way before him, but so few are willing to step in and help carry the stone. They do not wish to attach themselves to the work, lest they condemn themselves to a life full of extra burdens. I left my carriage that day and took up the stone, lifting it for the man. I believe my guards were embarrassed. One can ignore a poor shirtless wretch doing such labor, but none ignore a king sharing the load. Perhaps we should switch places more often. If a king is seen to assume the burden of the poorest of men, perhaps there will be those who will help him with his own load, so invisible, yet so daunting.
May Roland and his brave men rest in eternal glory, and may the Horn blow forever in warning to the invader to inspire fear while giving comfort and courage to the descendants of the Franks.
They were the invaders
Yeah, nah, he got rightfully killed for burning and sacking Iruña, the city of the basques

When you slice through mountains with a sword and blow so fiercely in your horn than your chest burst open, you know you are the ultimate badass.
This goes hard
What a honourable gentleman
Any medieval song that starts with ''Sex'' is a Rocking Banger!!
ok this is epic
Six de mes vassaux restèrent au pays, pour garder l'or précieux
Les six autres allèrent en terres païennes, pour mettre le fer à l'épreuve".
-Ils ont quitté les terres franques avec de belle femmes en selles
Soufflez dans l'Olifant à Roncevaux.-
Ils ont levé les voiles de soie en haut des mâts.
Puis ont navigué jusqu'en terres païennes en deux semaines
-Ils ont quitté les terres franques avec de belle femmes en selles
Soufflez dans l'Olifant à Roncevaux.-
Ils se battirent à Roncevaux deux à trois jours ;
Les païens tombèrent sous l'épée de Roland comme l'herbe sous une bonne faucille.
-Ils ont quitté les terres franques avec de belle femmes en selles
Soufflez dans l'Olifant à Roncevaux.-
Ils se battirent à Roncevaux emplis de courroux;
Les païens tombèrent sous l'épée de Roland comme la neige qui tombe sur les champs
-Ils ont quitté les terres franques avec de belle femmes en selles
Soufflez dans l'Olifant à Roncevaux.-
Ils se battirent à Roncevaux pleins de fatigue
Le soleil ne pouvant briller à cause d'un brouillard de sang humains.
-Ils ont quitté les terres franques avec de belle femmes en selles
Soufflez dans l'Olifant à Roncevaux.-
Roland mit la corne à sa bouche ensanglantée et il tonna avec furie;
Alors la terre, les pierres se brisèrent et il résonna par de là les mers et les champs.
-Ils ont quitté les terres franques avec de belle femmes en selles
Soufflez dans l'Olifant à Roncevaux.-
Jusqu'ici atteignit le son de la corne et résonna dans chaque fourreaux;
Roland souffla si fort que ses yeux sortirent de son crâne et se plantarent dans les orteils enemies
-Ils ont quitté les terres franques avec de belle femmes en selles
Soufflez dans l'Olifant à Roncevaux.-
Le roi Charlemagne rentra au pays et tous ceux qui l'accompagnèrent s'assirent épuisés.
Les bateaux étaient remplis d'or et d'argent et tous les païens étaient morts
-Ils ont quitté les terres franques avec de belle femmes en selles
Soufflez dans l'Olifant à Roncevaux.-
Je ne traduirais pas "blow" par un impératif, mais je pense que cest une erreur de traduction (ça aurait probablement du être un "blew", ils ont soufflé, ils soufflèrent
Bravo pour ton travail de traduction 👍

@@LuisRincon-wr4dm Gosh! "Oi Šermukšnio" is a Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth song?? I didn't know that!
Reminds me a bit of Poul Anderson's novel "Three Hearts and Three Lions", about a Danish engineer who time-travels back to the time of Charlemagne and eventually learns that he is the "Holger Danske"/Holger the Dane who was one of Roland's companions.
I am a Roland and I just learned of this
The Song of Roland is our Odyssey
Banger
The song of my people
This guy blows an horn so so hard that someone's eyes popped out too
