  • This song is probably made for people who do party drugs.

  • It's a nice song, though I'm not all too fond of those ''speaking'' parts.

    5 thumbs up.

  • @anima07swe

    The orginal voice was more of a whisper. One of my favourite P O songs!

  • @BrunhildaUK

    Wow, thanks! Finally some insight ;-)

    Although I must admit it sounded a bit more mysterious before when I didn't know what the words meant... LOL

  • @anduschatz

    There's a bit more to go. Shall I stop?!

    Incidentally the question marks are just for individual words, not the entire sentence!

    PS: I'm just a student of Icelandic so if any Icelanders would like to comment on my translations..!

  • @anduschatz

    It's still got a mysterious, maybe even sad, feel even knowing the lyrics. Not sure who he's singing about - a partner or someone who's no longer alive. Again a fluent speaker's knowledge would be welcome!

  • I wish I could find the lyrics somewhere (so I can get them translated), I'd love to know what he's singing about :-D

    Respond to this video...

    Verse 2)

    -sólin skín í heiði - það er komin nótt - stend á miðri hraðbraut - samt er allt svo hljótt - náttúran er dúndur...

    *the sun shines from a clear sky (?) - night is coming - I stand in the middle of the freeway - yet everything's still so quiet - nature is mad/calm (?)

    Verse 1)

    -komið undir morgun - gatan nästum auð - búist er við stormi - skyjin eru rauð - þú ert hér með mér.

  • @anduschatz

    Verse 3)

    -En samt er það nærvera þín sem fær mig til að taka heiminn

    * But still it's your presence that brings me to the world (?)

  • @anduschatz

    Verse 4)

    -þrá sem grípur mig - kemst á æðra stig - bar' af því að horf'á þig - komdú nú.

    *Longing grips me - reaches a higher (?) level - only because I'm watching (?) you - come now

  • @anduschatz

    Verse 5)

    -að fá hjartað snert - sama hvar þú ert - enginn getur gert - nema þú

  • @anduschatz

    Verse 6)

    -Komdu núna með mér - borginn bíður þín í hundraðþúsund litum - eins og draumasyn

    *Come with me now - the city awaits you in a hundred thousand colours - just like a vision in a dream

  • @anduschatz

    Verse 6)

    -þegar solin rís

    * When the sun rises

    Verse 7)

    -Grasflóturinn vöknar - blómin signa sig - hverfið heldur kjafti - bara fyrir þig - nátturan er dúndur

    * The surface of the grass(?) awake - the flowers cross themselves(?) - the neighbourhood shuts up(?) - just for you - nature is calm/mad (?)

  • @anduschatz

    And that concludes my translation! Verse 8 and 9 are just repetitions of verse 4 and 5. Hope knowing the words hasn't put you off the song. It's one of my all time favourites!

  • @BrunhildaUK - thanks for the translations! I'd love to be able to speak Icelandic.

  • @Peaceplatform

    I wish I could speak it! lol. I can read much more than I can speak. I wish I knew what the words I didn't understand mean.

    It's my favourite language along with Serbian and Swedish.
