[TOMT]Unusual request: icelandic lullaby (?) on YouTube
Some context: So yesterday I decided to try and find some nostalgic-feeling songs I had listened to on YouTube many years ago, around 2017, approximately. I managed to find three of the songs through YouTube filters and other means, but there was only one left.
It was a song similar to a lullaby (not necessarily one) and had a nostalgic feeling to it. I think it was probably in icelandic, but could also be faroese. When I search for "icelandic lullaby" on YouTube the main results are for "Sofðu Unga Ástin Mín", which is definitely not it, and also other results other than what I'm looking for ("icelandic folk song" also brings up even more divergent results). As mentioned, I probably watched this video around 2017. 2018 and 2019 are also possible years, but I'd say a bit less likely, and it was definitely before 2020.
This is a difficult request because I can't remember any important aspects of the song itself, like parts of the lyrics (given it's in a language I don't speak) nor the artist nor the channel which uploaded it. I can only remember it was a capella, much probably sung by only one woman, it had a nostalgic feeling and sounded like a lullaby (as mentioned) and the video was simply an image of a lit candle in the dark, with the lyrics (only in the original language) appearing in the side of it (I think, this could be my imagination or murky memory).
I am very sorry for this being a difficult one, but I remember very little of it, I only listened to it one time, but I'd really like to find this video again, if it still exists. Thank you to anyone who tries to find this.
