“Mother Told Me” is one of the 15 songs from Wolfskald’s sea shanty album, Echoes from the Deep.
This song is the next chapter in an ongoing cinematic story of loss, courage, loyalty, and the strength to keep moving forward.
After surviving the darkness of the sea, a warrior returns to the people she once left behind. Together, they rebuild more than a ship—they rebuild hope, purpose, and the courage to begin again. But their journey is far from over.
Inspired by the spirit of sea shanties and cinematic maritime folk music, “Mother Told Me” carries the voices, storms, memories, and determination of those who refuse to surrender to the sea.

Part I
Part III
Lyrics;
Salt on my hands
Frost in my hair
I watched the dark sea
Take all I held dear
My oars were splintered
My bones were sore
Still I kept rowing
Toward the shore
Hear the drowned bell
Toll beneath the foam
Some will return
Some never come home
Hold to the rail
Hold to your name
The sea cannot drown
An undying flame
My mother told me
Daughter, stand tall
My mother told me
Storms rise and fall
My mother told me
Sing through the night
My mother told me
We’ll see dawn’s first light
Lanterns were fading
One by one
The mast was breaking
But we carried on
The old gods were silent
Cold in the spray
I gave all my fear
To the sea that day
Hear the drowned bell
Toll beneath the foam
Some will return
Some never come home
Hold to the rail
Hold to your name
The sea cannot drown
An undying flame
My mother told me
Daughter, stand tall
My mother told me
Storms rise and fall
My mother told me
Sing through the night
My mother told me
We’ll see dawn’s first light
Let the deep drums thunder
Let the ancient war cry rise
Carry the fallen’s final words
Beyond the northern skies
If I am bound to sink
I’ll face the deep with pride
With every sacred vow I made
Still burning deep inside
