In this song which is a poem written by Poul F. Joensen, he describes the 4 brothers from Sumba, who were renowned for their physical strength and courage. In the 1600 AD when the Faroes were attacked by pirates, these strong men fought and killed pirates, and acted like a defence force on the southernmost island. In the poem the last one living tells the story and remembers their heroic deeds.
