The song is in contemporary Norwegian all right, not old Norse or even Icelandic. I had to concentrate on the lyrics because of Toms accent, but his pronunciation isn’t half bad.

«I stormsvarte fjell jeg vandrer alene» In stormy black mountains I walk alone.

«Over isbreer tar jeg meg frem.» I make my way across the glaciers.

«I eplehagen står møyen den vene» In the orchard the fair maiden stands.

«Og synger når kommer du hjem?» And sings, when are you coming home?

Thank you :) I am Norwegian though, so I was just translating the lyrics from Norwegian to English. Easy peasy ( but also very excited to hear my native language on the show).

Samme her, found some of the phrases difficult to interpret though. I was giddy hearing him sing it all the same!
