1) Gjallarhorn is a Finnish band that performs world music with roots in the folk music of Finland and Sweden. The band's music echoes the ancient folk music tradition of Scandinavia with medieval ballads, minuets, prayers in runo-metric chanting and ancient Icelandic rímur epics in a modern way. The group is named after the Gjallarhorn of Norse mythology.

Gjallarhorn was formed in 1994 on the west coast of Finland, in the Swedish speaking area, by Jenny Wilhelms, Christopher Öhman (viola, mandola) and Jacob Frankenhaeuser (didgeridoo). The band started as a trio but became a quartet with percussion in 1996. The band has been a quartet ever since.

The music of the band remains Swedish in character. Most of their repertoire is the acoustic folk music of these Swedish-speaking Finns, from the unique minuets and ballads that have only survived in Ostrobothnia, to the old traditional waltzes. The didgeridoo and sub-contrabass recorder offer an underlying drone, a technique shared by some other Nordic bands such as Garmarna. Also notable is their use of the hardanger fiddle and Jenny Wilhelms' kulning, a high-pitched, wordless vocal technique based on traditional Scandinavian cattle-herding calls.

2) Gjallarhorn is an Italian epic/Viking metal band, whose lyrical themes mainly deal with those of Ragnarok. They have only released one album, Nordheim (2005). Their style is somewhat reminiscent of Hammerheart-era Bathory, with slow epic songs performed with clean vocals. Three members of Gjallarhorn also play in the epic-metal band Doomsword.

3) Gjallarhorn is a black-metal band from Kherson, Ukraine.

I fjol så
Gjallarhorn Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I fjol så plocka jag blommor med min vän
Aj, aj, blommor med min vän, blommor med mi vän

I år tror jag att jag är ensam igen
Aj, aj, ensam igen, men jag tar mej en ny vän

I fjol om jul då var jag brud
Aj, aj, då var jag brud och da var jag klädd uti kransar

Blicken brann och jag var grann
Aj, aj, jag var grann

Och travalappana dansa

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "I fjol så plocka jag blommor med min vän" by Gjallarhorn describe a person who, last year, picked flowers with a friend. However, this year, they believe they are alone again but will find a new friend. The person's memories of last year involve being a bride during the Christmas season, dressed in wreaths and feeling beautiful. The final line of the song, "och travalappana dansa," is a phrase in an ancient Finnish dialect, loosely meaning "and the birch-leaves danced."

The song is written and performed by the Finnish-Swedish folk music group, Gjallarhorn. The band mixes traditional Nordic instruments, like the fiddle and nyckelharpa, with modern instruments like the guitar and drum kit. The band's name comes from the Norse mythology item called the Gjallarhorn, which was a trumpet-like instrument used to announce the arrival of the gods.

Yesteryear
Yesteryear I picked flowers with my kin
Ay, ay, flowers with my kin, flowers with my kin

This year I expect'll be lonesome again
Ay, ay, lonesome again, but someone new I'll befriend

Yesteryear's Yule I was to wed
Ay, ay, I was to wed adorned in flower garlands

Gaze ablazed and myself enticing
Ay, ay, myself enticing

And the nomad Lapps in dance
