Here's hoping there are some Norwegian-speaking folks on the net
who can help--

I'm one of a group of Creative Anachronists who would like very much to
sing a version of "Ormen Lange" which we have in Norwegian (from the
Faroese). "Ormen Lange" is the tale of Olaf Trygvasson, who built the
longest ship in all Norway.

Problem: none of us speak Norwegian, or know *anything* about scansion
in Norwegian. If you can help us (I'd provide a cassette and lyrics and
postage if you could recite the lyrics slowly for recording on tape),
I'd *greatly* appreciate it.
