Agnete og Havmanden is a traditional Danish folk song that I fell in love with many years ago. This is my adaptation of the lyrics and music.
The story follows Agnete as she marries the Havman (sea man), and goes to live with him at the bottom of the sea. There they have seven sons together after 8 years of happiness. While she is sat at the cradle singing she hears the church bells back home in England, and desires to return to church. The Havman allows her to. When she returns home her mother asks her why she left, where she has been and why she married the Havman when he cannot give her riches and honour! So when the Havman comes to ask Agnete to return home, for their children missed her, she refused to return...
One of the few Nordic folk songs in which I feel sorry for the water creature.
