For My Sister

Now on the bog in yellow sedge there is a wind of spring
and legends rise around the island in the Berga Falls
Excuse a touch of bitter joy, to my guitar I'll sing
the strength to cure us like the tender sweet gale health recalls
 
A song for you my sister when the earth's expecting spring
Luossa's heather's full of lively wind and frantic bees
that's where we learnt in infancy the walk of suffering
and how to drain our childhood's cup of sorrow to the lees
 
But glorious glorious spring came on each year in roses veiled
though stinging sorrow found our hearts and whitened our cheeks
One day you knelt before the King, one night your courage failed
and then you drank salvation out of mountains, hills and creeks
 
Come out when storm is raging in the fruit and willow trees
Look at the burning skies of spring our Lord and stars to praise
the mignonette outside your wall to your sweet slumber sees
then roses cry, come out to us and sleep in our embrace!

The fool on the hill

Day after day
Alone on a hill
The strange guy
Where the rooster crowed
 
No one wants to know about him
And they point where he goes
He still holds out alone
 
Do you know about a fool on a hill
He can see a precious sun
And his eyes see more
They see a world, a hidden world
 
Ask him for help
He comes quickly
He that has thousand voices
Whisper the truth quickly
 
No one wants to listen to him
Or the sound in a secret song
Which he doesn't know at all
 
Do you know about a fool on a hill...
 
No one wants to see him
In the hut in the south with a lake
He still holds out alone
 
Do you know about a fool on a hill...
 
No one wants to listen to him
And they point where he goes
He still holds out alone
 
Do you know about a fool on a hill...
 

Oliver

In Valhalla a long time ago a beautiful boy
They put in chains
They nailed him so high upon a cross
And they called him a slave
 
Oliver - lovely
Oliver - glorious
Oliver - your bonds are untied now
Oliver - pleasant
Oliver - modest
Oliver - all the lands quiver now
 
No one will understand the trials that
He had to endure
He did it for me and you
For all the truth
 
Oliver - lovely...
 
You soul is home to spirit and elves
the first and the last
The essence is in the minds of the men themselves,
You gave them the knowledge - oh, oh, oh
 
Piled like a rigid stack of power
Strong on the ice
You can hear high in the skies now
About your legend
 
Oliver - you get your victorious reward
You get your victorious reward
Though your hand is cold
 
Oliver - you get your victorious reward
You get your victorious reward
My beloved hand - break the ties now!
 
Oliver - lovely...
 

Prayer

The little boy he crawls to his knees
Crosses his hands so that God can see
Hush - quiet - what?
The little boy who says his prayers
 
Good God don't go away from mommy
She undresses me and bathes and stays with me
Then she dresses me in warm nightgown
God bless daddy 'cause I forgot
 
When I think of what happened today
A little song comes to mind
I must not stop saying my prayer
Forgive me God, I ask you kindly
 
My nightgown has a hood
Inside the hood I hide my head
It covers my eyes and my forehead as well
Nobody knows that I am there
 
Thank you God for a good day
Did I forget something, what was it?
I prayed for daddy and thought of you
Yes now I remember - God bless me
 
The little boy sleeps well now
The day is over, the night has come
Hush - quiet - what?
The little boy who said his prayers
 

Fúsi Reindeer

Far above the Vatnajökull glacier
Not far away from the Ódáðahraun lavafield
There is where Fúsi Reindeer lives
He wanders there alone
 
Fúsi Reindeer sings
By the waterfalls and birdsongs
He plays by the stream
All the way furthest in by Fjállabak
 
Hullum hey, hullum hey - Fúsi Reindeer always sings
When the clock strikes - one, tock, three
Yes then he is never late
He is never late
He is never late to dive into a warm spring
 
Hullum hey, hullum hey - Fúsi Reindeer always sings
When the clock strikes - one, tock, three
Yes then he wants to talk to Geir
He wants to talk to Geir
He wants to talk to Geir about
What fun there is to be had in this town
 
Far avbove the Vatnajökull glacier...
 
Hullum hey, hullum hey - Fúsi Reindeer always sings
When the clock strikes - one, two, three
Tock, now good advices are dear
Good advices are dear
Good advices are dear because
Fúsi wants to go on a summer holiday
 
Hullum hey, hullum hey - Fúsi Reindeer always sings
When the clock strikes - one, two, three
Now Fúsi, he is big
Fúsi, he is big
Fúsi, he is the biggest animal that
Rides around with four gears
 

Alta Mira

One day I talked to old man in ragged clothes
I was walking near the harbour - he stood on the docks
 
He told me about the special country, far away it is
And now it's like something has burst inside me
 
Alta Mira - is the adventure land
Alta Mira - my mind carries me there
Alta Mira - is the adventure land
Alta Mira - my mind carries me there
 
The old man told me that the sun was seagreen over there
In the sea there were wise cows swimming on the side
 
A seal was in a musical in silvercoloured shoes
In the squares roamed centipedes in flowery tuxedos
 
Alta Mira - is the adventure land
Alta Mira - my mind carries me there
Alta Mira - is the adventure land
Alta Mira - my mind carries me there
 
Hey - Alta Mira - lalalalala-lala...
 

Heaven

My little girl, who plays so well
The day has passed and the night has come
Time now to take your clothes off
Wash the fingers, or what do you think?
 
Give me a pillow and give me a blanket
Give me a bed that has two sets of wings
There I will fly in the home of my mind
And go in a dream to the huge universe
 
Then fly my friend in the mind
Visit Venus and Mercury
There you will meet a beautiful wife
Who brings you presents, or what do you think?
 
From earth the the route leads to Mars
Where shoals of trouts and salmon play
Delays are expected at Jupiter's moon
And..., or what do you think?
 
Give me a pillow and give me a blanket...
 
In Saturn they dance around the clock
Shot the clubs with a Uranus swing
In Neptunus city you may build your home
And travel to Pluto, or what do you think?
 
Give me a pillow and give me a blanket...
 

I don't know what

Me, I already have too many tears
And sadness in my life
But now I see the sky
And the stars that reflect in your eyes
 
I don't know what
You have that which one can't describe
I don't know what
Something that burns in me
If I am near you it's like a delirious feeling
I don't know why
 
When the storm goes
The sun and the moon shine
We don't see anything but love
Hearts which beat together
Is it that your heart beats for me?
 
I don't know what
You have that which one can't describe
I don't know what
Something that burns in me
If I am near you it's like a delirious feeling
I don't know why
 
I love you madly
I will love you for eternity
I don't know what…
 
I don't know what
You have that which one can't describe
I don't know what
Something that burns in me
If I am near you it's like a delirious feeling
I don't know why
 

Tomorrow Will Be Another Day

There is a girl that I visit once in a while
She likes me because I always do what I can
There is so much hidden in her silence that I want to know
So I'll stay all night, even though we're like fire and water
 
(Come here) As long as my heart is beating
(Come here) As long as there is still tension
Tomorrow will be another day
 
(Come here) As long as the sun is smiling
(Come here) As long as our desire is a matter of giving and taking
Things are passing by so quickly
Tomorrow will be another day
 
She paints pictures that I never get to see
She sings songs when nobody is sitting next to her
In her eyes, there's a longing for more
So I'll stay all night, even though we're like fire and water
 
(Come here) As long as my heart is beating
(Come here) As long as there is still tension
Tomorrow will be another day
 
(Come here) As long as the sun is smiling
(Come here) As long as our desire is a matter of giving and taking
Things are passing by so quickly
Tomorrow will be another day
 
Time is like an hourglass in your hand
Where second and minutes become years
I want everything that I get
 
(Come here) As long as my heart is beating
(Come here) As long as there is still tension
Tomorrow will be another day
 
(Come here) As long as the sun is smiling
(Come here) As long as our desire is a matter of giving and taking
Things are passing by so quickly
Tomorrow will be another day
 
Tomorrow will be another day
