Ulver Merchandise

yeah, i know! i have the "bergtatt"-lyrics myself, thank you! i mixed it up and thought "solen går bak åse ned" was from "kveldssanger"!;) i allready urged several norwegian forum-members to translate it, but it seems to be quite demanding!:D

V surely fits the image many 'grown-ups' have of our kinda music.
I think he must be pure evil.... there is something wicked 'bout him.

Wanna go to Sweden, Astarte? On a raid for the Ulver t-shirt.
:heh: Would be damn cool, actually. And pick up some stuff at
Systembolaget on my way home.. he he.

The closest I come to Ulver merch. is my old worn out Arcturus t-shirt..

I also wanna say that all Ulver albums are great! Great!!!

The signature
"Sola Gaar Bak Aase Ned
Skuggan' Bli Saa Lange
Natte Kjem Snart Atteved
Teke Meg I Fange "

Is from an old Norwegian Stev(a song where one person sings, often very personal. And in Norway a Stev has folktunes and is often very mystic), and the bands Storm and Ulver have used some of the text in their lyrrics.

It means something like:
"The sun sets behind the ridges,
The shadows are getting so long.
The night will soon be here
Before I even notice"

It's old Norwegian and not so easy to translate..

Orginally the text is called "Aagots Lokke" and Nagell in Storm stole it and changed name without writing where he took it from. Pretty rude..
Norwegians may find the Stev or Lokket in the tale "Fjeldeventyret" written down by Henrik Bjerregaard.

The whole text goes like this:
Sole gaar bak Aasen ne,
Skuggjin bli saa langje ;
Naatte kjøm snart atteve
Tækje meg ti Fangje.
Krytrein uti Qvee staaer,
Eg aat Sæterstuli gaaer.

Myrkt te æ ti qvar ei Bygd,
Ti de djupe Dale ;
Her paa Fjeill ha Sole drygd
Mæ aa gaa taa Gale
Test æg qvile onde Tak,
Maargaa æ ho tile vak.

Snart eg æ naa klar i Qvel,
Saa gaar eg te Qvile,
Søv saa roleg onde Fell
Test i Maargaa tile,
Nær eg da ha somna in,
Drømer eg om Guten min.
 
@futhark: mange takk! jeg snakker litt norsk! men jeg kan det ikke så bra! og gammel norsk går ikke! har du "kveldssanger" teksten også? og kan du oversetter det til engelsk(eller tysk:) )jeg kan ikke finner dette teksten! vær så snill!

Thanks for the enlightenment on the Lyrics. I was never aware that it was taken from an older Norwegina piece. I'll have to remember that...
This man that wrote it all down, is/was he collector of Norwegina folklore, like Asbjørnson? (I hope I spelt that correctly)

I don't suppose anyone of you know about the topic question, as to where I can get Ulver shirts?
 
Hi!

Yes, I think he is a man who wrote down tales he heard from people around in Norway...

Sorry, I don't know about any Ulver shirt. :\
I would like to buy one myself.

No I don't have the "Kveldssanger lyrrics" and I don't have time or lust to translate. Sorry.. hehe
