"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.
