The Wanderer

Hwær cwom mearg? Hwær cwom mago? 
Where is the horse gone? Where the rider?

Hwær cwom maþþumgyfa?
Where the giver of treasure?

Hwær cwom symbla gesetu?
Where are the seats at the feast?

Hwær sindon seledreamas?
Where are the revels in the hall?


The Wanderer is an anonymous 10th Century Anglo Saxon poem.


A bit different from getting home today - but a rest would be just as welcome as 1,100 years ago!
