From Kan’s album Sleeper. Written by Jim Goodwin. I’ve seen a number of seemingly unrated translations of the title.

Manga Takk

"Many Thanks" or "Thanks very much" would be the translation.

in what language?

Faroese.

Actually it can be almost all Scandinavian languages -

"thanks"

Tak - Danish
Takk - Norwegian, Icelandic, Faroese
Tack - Swedish

‘Mange’ in all the above languages is "many"

Aye, but in that spelling, it’s Faroese. "Manga" identifies it as such.

"’Mange’ in all the above languages is "many" "

Not in Faroese or Icelandic. Faroese is "manga" as above, Icelandic is "margur / margir / mörg etc. "Many thanks in Icelandic is "margir takk" (though "takk fyrir" would probably be encountered more often).

And the common Swedish expression for "thanks very much" is "tack så mycket", which is more literally precise.

Ah, true - too huried a post; I faild to see the -a on the end of "MANGA". Yeah, that’s the more common way is Swedish (tack så mycket) and Icelandic (takk fyrir).

Manga Takk, X:2

Transposed to D.
Brian plays it with a high D whistle in Gmaj (or Dmix, i don´t care, Fsharp and Cnat), but i rather play it with an Alto G (therefore this transposition)
