Summary
Homeland song/wartime song. Greetings are sent to the bard's homeland in Vaternish and to Hallin, as he looks upon it from the seas. He has fond memories of times past and the sound of youngsters singing. He tells that the war with Germany is the reason he is at sea. If he returned home safely his sweetheart, Mary, would be happy.
