The Wulfings, Wylfings or Ylfings (the name means the "wolf clan") was a powerful clan in Beowulf, Widsith and in the Norse sagas. While the poet of Beowulf does not locate the Wulfings geographically, Scandinavian sources define the Ylfings (the Old Norse form of the name) as the ruling clan of the Eastern Geats.
The Wulfings play an important role in Beowulf as Beowulf's father Ecgþeow of the Wægmunding clan had slain one of its members, and was banished for not paying the weregild. The Danish king Hroðgar, who was married to Wealhþeow, a Wulfing woman, graciously paid the weregild, and when Beowulf arrived at the Danish court in order to slay Grendel, Hroðgar interpreted this as a son's gratitude.
In Old Norse sources, the clan figure prominently in the Heimskringla and in Sögubrot, where Hjörvard and his son Hjörmund belong to it. It is also mentioned in the Lay of Hyndla and in Skáldskaparmál where Eiríkr the Wise was one of its members. However, its most famous member was Helgi Hundingsbane who had two poems of his own (Helgakviða Hundingsbana I and Helgakviða Hundingsbana II), in the Poetic Edda, and whose story is also retold in the Völsunga saga.
Taking a trip down memory lane
Things have changed
one thing remains
That they will always have each other
And even though those days have gone
They know here is where they belong
Theres some kind of magic in the air
Feel the warmth that only summer breezes can bring
Sweet little notes of spring begin
Nothing to fear
Taking one step at a time walking hand in hand
1 2 3 4 Cheek to cheek
And theyre learning how to do the dance
Let this love be forevermore they say
I wish for this to be true for you and me
Holding her close he leading the way
Out at the park enjoying the day
And you can tell theyll be okay
Feel the warmth that only summer breezes can bring
Sweet little notes of spring begin
Nothing to fear
Taking one step at a time walking hand in hand
1 2 3 4 Cheek to cheek
And theyre learning how to do the dance
Let this love be forevermore they say
I wish for this to be true for you and me
Taking one step at a time walking hand in hand
1 2 3 4 Cheek to cheek
And theyre learning how to do the dance
Let this love be forevermore they say
I wish for this to be true for you and me
To be true for you and me (X3)
