Savage Daughter | Wyndreth Berginsdottir

[@gwendelyne]

I’d like to share with you a comment from Wyndreth herself, about the meaning and power of this song, left on another video of her performing it: (kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnLYdGmdjZhpqsU) (some parts edited for clarity) "As most of my writing … is based upon viking age cultures and the style of recreated oral traditions, I do a lot of that … I study and work hard to represent what was lost to us. THIS song, however, has a will and a meaning of its very own … It was clear to me that this was a song that wanted to be sung by anyone who found their own voice within it. It is an anthem of empowerment--not a song meant to serve a specific blood or people or skin. If you find strength and power and your own voice in it, this is your song and I hope you sing it with the strength and rage and beauty and power that is within you--whoever you are. Women are not ever Less Than. We are the singers of storms, the fire made flesh, the inexorable power of the mountains, the kind warmth and the cutting lash of the wind. We are half of the world and we have been taught to speak softly and behave mildly because we are easier to control that way. I am honored that daughters of The First Peoples find a voice here. And daughters of the Sea Wolves. And the daughters of great-grandmothers, grandmothers, and mothers, wherever they lived and sang and died. All of you are their living legacies and they hear you singing; be assured they are proud of you. Whoever you are, you have a voice that cannot be silenced. Together, our voices cannot be unheard. Thank you. SING."

Straight chills 💕

An amazing woman she is, I'm a genderfluid native American and this song speaks volumes to mummy spirit

[@talapines7543]

Thank you because I was so damn scared I was treading on the wrong ground as a Black kid, because I hear my culture, I hear us running to get away, I hear our hair struggles, I hear my peoples struggles. I love this song and I love they it’s just for all who relate to it.

[@nikidonnelly1033]

I am my mother's savage daughter ❤️.

[@ambermcallister5980]

This song feels like it should be an anthem for all women in the states right about now... this is the first time I've ever heard of it and it gave me chills. But I second what some others said, I'm glad to hear I'm not stepping on anyone's toes and claiming this song as "my own" I am my mother's savage daughter! And I'm glad I'm not alone!

[@cheminnonpris]

My mother was all this, in 1928 in a very conservative Tehran. She and older sister did what was shame in Tehran center of those days.., fighting with Mullahs, going to university. Not lowering her voice in front of revolutionary , khomeyni soldiers. And I am proud to be this loving, carying for the world 's savage daughter❤. Lots of love

I am tired of making myself smaller for this world of men. I am a savage daughter and I will not lower my voice

[@Janetsfear]

No real man would expect that of you

[@GoingSwimmingly]

@@Janetsfear With all due respect, it’s systemic and normalized. The whole world looks at you weird as a woman if you do one too many things. Like if you don’t know body language, if you don’t let people talk over you, if you stand up for yourself too often, if you’re too direct about your needs Everyone has the bias to an extent, even you would find it odd at first if a woman told you she wants adult funtime on the first date and with the same intensity some men do. You can be alright, several men can be, but even women reinforce those things amongst one another.. It’s kind of a fight against _everybody_ to try and not get quieted down.

[@GorillaCrewWarGaming]

Get back on your knees and open your mouth. Nobody told you that you could have an opinion. Now make me a sandwich.

[@techristopher8077]

I have never asked or told my Bride of nearly 53 years to be less than what she could be. Beyond our three fine children, she has miked cows, butchered calves and chickens, fought brush, car, and house fires, driven tractors, firetrucks and a submarine.

[@GorillaCrewWarGaming]

Shut-up and get me a beer.

[@MM-ss1sr]

My daughter sent me this song. She said she burst into tears when she heard it because she realized that I am my mother's savage daughter, my mother was my grandmothers savage daughter and that Mother Earth has blessed our family and helped me raise four savage daughters and sons. We all walk our own path and will not bend or break, we all give and take strength from each other, with the ebb and flow of need and life..... And yes, the signs of help and blessings re all around us, just take the time to stop, look, listen and give thanks for absolutely everything and anything that brings a smile to your face. May Mother watch over you and bless you all.

[@karinberonius8799]

Your comment made me cry. Such beautiful words about your family. You are truly blessed.

[@jackiedodson5649]

Thought it was a native song not the case it's Celtic

[@GabrielleBraswell]

This song speaks to me on another level. I feel the primal urge to dance around a campfire while singing this . I am my mother's savage daughter. I lost my mom 1 year and six months ago and i miss her more than words can describe. But this song makes me closer to her

[@Sinner1660]

Go make a fire and dance round it singing this song. I'm not being sarcastic and I do not mock you. Could be a good experience for you, I'm a dude and I've done it. We need a dude version of this song- I digress. I hope you find comfort in the memories you have of her, in spite of the bittersweet feelings that may come with them. I've lost friends and pets recently, I send you good wishes dear stranger. (Ps there's diff versions of this song I just found this one haha)

[@LDR01]

I'm so sorry you lost your mom. I think singing this song with conviction and strength would be a cathartic experience! You missing your mom is a true testament to the love she gave you. How beautiful 🙏❤️🙏❤️

[@GabrielleBraswell]

@@Sinner1660 thank you for your kind words I think I will make a fire and dance around it. Hopefully it will help bring some peace to my heart

[@GabrielleBraswell]

@@LDR01 it's been so tough without her. Losing my mom has been the worst thing to ever happen to me I wouldn't wish this pain on anyone. When I hear this song I just feel so close to her. We were both free spirited loving souls . Thank you for your kind words I appreciate it so much

[@sward_]

Yes 💜🙏💫

[@TheKittenChroniclesSanctuary]

I am my own savage daughter. My mother was the one cursing me while throwing stones. I found my voice in the faces of every cat I help ❤

[@awkwardautistic]

She is still your mother... and I'm sure she had some trauma to be the way she was to you. It doesn't make it ok... but helps put it into perspective and take it less personally. ❤

[@niknik.z]

Same here! ✌️💪 proud of you girl! ❤️‍🔥

[@Lupina-mp5ck]

This is what i felt one day. I imagine hugging the little me and promise that i‘m now the mother for my younger self. I‘m free now, because i have me. Sounds weard but i have so much love for the little girl i once was, that i can heal now

[@TheKittenChroniclesSanctuary]

@@awkwardautistic she’s 68 and still a miserable human being with no soul . You would figure eventually she would change with therapy and time .. nope not her .. as bitter and mean . I am so sick of hearing “ she’s your mother “ when was she a mother ? Was it when she knowingly let her boyfriend SA me as an 8 yr old ? Maybe it was she beat me with a frying pan that broke my scapula.. maybe when she blamed me her child for ruining her life for just existing? She literally could have prevented me but decided to make the bad choices she did and end up with a child of a man who never loved her . But I’m the one who paid the price . I learned how not to be a mother from her , how to block a punch to the face/gut and a good right swing . So she may be the one who gave birth to me she is not my mother she was my tormentor. I have not spoken to her in 16 years . She will never have access to me or my children. I moved to another country to ensure that .

[@andreamuller9009]

Not all women are suitable to be a good mother... but we all have a strong mother..... All-Mother Earth is it or Gaia or whatever you want to call her is it and she loves her savage children.... you you found your strength through her, sister. I take care of injured birds and release them when they are healed.... but a magpie stayed with me even though his wing has long since healed (and he can fly well again), he has accompanied me everywhere for 5 years. I think he thinks I'm his mom, at least I hope so. Or maybe he's just lazy and likes the food I give him. Who knows ....🤣

[@sunnymartinez331]

I am a man of Scottish, Irish, Swedish, Portuguese, and First Nations American descent, and raised pagan, and this spoke to my spirit and savage voice inside of me. We are all our parents' savage children.

As the proud father of a tiny savage I love this song!

[@silkoakranchpitchforkranch1205]

Please raise her to be a “Tom boy” being an adult woman is going to require those skills.

[@FeministCatwoman]

@@silkoakranchpitchforkranch1205 No. We should not have to give up or sacrifice our femininity for the sake of fitting in, being accepted, etc. Femininity is strength. We do not need to approximate male behavior.

[@ZealousidealogueX]

​@@FeministCatwomanI think what they meant is that they want OC (original commenter) to raise their daughter to be self sufficient, so as not to be dependent on men.😊

[@luciusanddraco]

Tiny savage I love it

[@FairbrookWingates]

As the savage daughter of a loving father, thank you. A true father is a steadfast root uplifting the growing child and even the most savage daughter appreciates and honors what first nurtured and sheltered her.

[@KimberlyJelitza]

So unfair that this song is all over the place without the proper recognition. This is amazing

[@plrs4cats]

[@GorillaCrewWarGaming]

@@plrs4cats I think you missed her point....

This song gives me so much strength to fight my abusive ex's manipulation. It gave me the will to call HR when my boss started squeezing me out. I am a proud pagan

The gods give us all strength. Stay strong dear sister

[@twalsh29]

What does it matter that we say “I am pagan” or “I am christian” or any other religious thing when so many of us worship our own selves, regardless of what our lips profess? Show me what you spend your time and energy on, and I will show you how and what you worship. But make no mistake, we all worship.

I'm not a daughter, but this song still calls to me.

[@pineapplepenumbra]

Me neither, but I agree.

[@humankatcrafty]

Speaking as a daughter, I can say I believe the song to be for everyone. It's rekindling those authentic parts of ourselves that from childhood some tried to smother. Kind of like reminding us of our inheritance in this life. Just my take :-)

[@weepat5325]

i wish more than anything i could have listened to this with my mum. she would have been so proud to call me her savage daughter

[@MaceGill]

I hadn't heard this song in fifteen years or more ... Sung defiantly and loudly around the campfires of pagan gatherings. I lost my mom just over a year ago. My spiritual mom only six months before that, and my savage mother-in-law but a few years earlier. I can't thank you enough for posting, it has reawakened things I knew ... But had let drift back into a hazy dream.

Me too YEARS! Glad it found us again #SISTERS

[@jinx17]

My mom was a proud, strong, independent woman. I can only dream to be half the woman she was. She raised me mostly by herself and instilled this mindset in me. I am my mother's daughter. 💛 I miss her every day.

[@kimberlydavis8603]

I was the little girl being told to be quiet, be a lady, you are wild, you are savage asked what is wrong with you. I was the little girl who others tried to break to fit into their box. Years ago when i first heard this song it touched me. I have since embraced the little girl i used to be and have sung this song for years to my own daughters as well as a version i have adapted for them (you are your mother's savage daughter). This song will forever play in my house and inside my soul❤

[@Magicferrydust]

I only wish I had heard this when I was young.

[@alineguimaraesdepaula218]

Essa música é tão verdadeira que me causa arrepios... Eu sempre fui uma criança diferente, rebelde de natureza.... Mas é um orgulho poder ser diferente da multidão...

My mother has been a witch whit hippie clothes and free spirit. She was so misunderstood by family and friends. Everyone thinks she was crazy. She left a few years ago. And now I understand her craziness and proud to be her savage daughter.

I heard this first shortly after my own mother died. It speaks to me.

[@goddessravenlovelife7452]

This song brought up something so deep in me that was forgotten but deep in my subconscious about losing my mother when I was 25. My eyes welled up in tears it needed to surface and I sent this to my daughter. This have become my new motivation song. To all my fellow sisters out there do not be afraid to be who you are and be proud!

[@Jess-rf9gw]

THIS IS AMAZING!!! I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT. ILOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is so true😮.

As someone who people have constantly tried to shove in a certain box this song brings out something deep.

I call it deep magic.

[@tokenlow5870]

I always cry when I hear this song sang. It's touches something broken within my soul, and angers another. I love it though, one day I will find my voice and sing this proudly. For now I'm healing

All said and done, you are a child of the universe. Go with God, Mon Ami

My mother was a warrior; she was a survivor of leukemia and even though she lost her battle, she was always the strong woman who raised me. She never taught me to lower my voice and stood by me when she could. Now I have a savage little daughter and she makes me feel strong since I’m raising her on my own and she is my heart and soul

LYRICS; I am my mother's savage daughter The one who runs barefoot Cursing sharp stones I am my mother's savage daughter I will not cut my hair I will not lower my voice My mother's child is a savage She looks for her omens in the colors of stones In the faces of cats, in the falling of feathers In the dancing of fire In the curve of old bones I am my mother's savage daughter The one who runs barefoot Cursing sharp stones I am my mother's savage daughter I will not cut my hair I will not lower my voice My mother's child dancеs in darkness She sings heathеn songs By the light of the moon And watches the stars and renames the planets And dreams she can reach them With a song and a broom I am my mother's savage daughter The one who runs barefoot Cursing sharp stones I am my mother's savage daughter I will not cut my hair I will not lower my voice We are all brought forth out of darkness Into this world, through blood and through pain And deep in our bones, the old songs are waking So sing them with voices of thunder and rain We are our mother's savage daughters The ones who run barefoot Cursing sharp stones We are our mother's savage daughters We will not cut our hair We will not lower our voice We are our mother's savage daughters The ones who run barefoot Cursing sharp stones We are our mother's savage daughters We will not cut our hair We will not lower our voice We are our mother's savage daughters The ones who run barefoot Cursing sharp stones We are our mother's savage daughters We will not cut our hair We will not lower our voice

[@jessicaharris9964]

I came across this song about a week ago but there's something so familiar about it. Quite literally like an old song waking up from deep within me. Constantly repeating over and over and I find myself singing whilst doing work (much to everyone else's dismay) Such an amazing song, thank you Wyndreth ❤️

[@coronastern]

I stumbled upon this song months ago and almost forgott about it. This week my firm was about to screw me over and this song was suddenly in my head in repeat ... so I searched for it ... and listend again and again. The day my projectmanager was talking to me and tried to get me to buy her nonsense this song was in my heart and the drum as well. I did not lower my voice. I did not retreat and let someone step over me. I set an example and now others did follow me. If every will happen as things look right now, our entire overhead team will pull back from their duty because of the stunt they pulled with the wages ... I sung this song in my head all day long now ... and I feel better then ever.

This is just my personal choice when it comes to Original Artists.

Our women are sacred to us Lakota Sioux which must be taught through generations. From a Lakota to a Nordic Viking or such, do not lower your voices. We hear you 💯🔥

I came here, driven by a need to find how to draw a very even pentangle on a circle of wood to restring my five tube chimes, and this popped up. Sweet ❤️‍🔥

Thank you for this beautiful version of Karen Kahans song. 🙏🏻 and what a wonderful video!

[@francesb7515]

It is a beautiful song and video. I am understanding it is a very old song passed down.

As I understand, this is original. I comment to popularise it. This is masterpiece ❤

[@gwendelyne]

This is a cover of Karen Kahan's song! Thank you though. If you can find her original version, she really brings in her own unique way.

Love it! I'm sharing these words as a spoken poem in a twelfth night story time gathering I've gone to for years.

These notes are powerful. Your thoughtfulness always comes through in your pieces and I really love and appreciate that. May you always keep a beginner's mind.
