Text & Notes on the Frozen Suite
Heimr Árnadair (Home Valley of Eagles) [Old Norse] Verðug dróttning stór Hjarta af gulli skína Kronum þik med vánum, ást ok trú Fagra, grýttur land, heimr Árnadalr Fylgið dróttningu ljóssins [English Translation] Worthy Queen of greatness The heart of Gold shines We crown thee with hope, love, and faith Beautiful, stony land, home Arendelle Follow the Queen of light
Vuelie Na na na heia na na hi ja na Na heia heia na ja no a ha na hei o no a na No a no no a haia no no a no no a haia no No a no no a no Vuelie is the South Sámi word for “a yoik”. Yoik is both a type of Saami song, and a unique vocal style used to perform this (often referred to as “chanting”). "The syllables in the song have no linguistic meaning. They are just said to be part of the vocal style." - Frode Fjellheim. [from http://frozen.wikia.com/wiki/Vuelie]
