Mellom Bakkar Og Berg

Sognefjord, Norge
2003


"Between hills and mountains out by the sea
The norseman have found his home
Where he himself have digged the foundations
And himself has placed his houses upon them

He stared out on the stone-covered shores
There was noone, who there had built
Let us clear a place and build farms
And then we will safely own the clearing

He stared out at the waves on the sea
It was rough to embark out there
But fish played down in the bustle
And that playing he wanted to see

Hail norseman

In the winter he seldom thought
If only I were here forever
And when the northern lights shines from above
His steelheart is filled with grusome longing"

In the winter he seldom thought

If only I were here forever

And when the northern lights shines from above

His steelheart is filled with grusome longing"

O D I  N

[chobogamer]

sounds like he's from Sogn alright :)

my favourite of all the songs sung today, where's the rest of it?

[GulsViking]

it's more like a nationalistic poem.. it's already translated, and it's more accurate, read the info.

When the vintertime came, he thought:

If I was in a warmer country!

But when the springsun in the hills was shining,

He got "love" for his domestic beach.

The last verse i cant translate because there is no way i will find matching words in english =/

I used the google translatin tool, so some of the words may be wrong, and i really dont know what "rudningen" means.

[PureJordal]

Its hard to translate because its kind of old norwegian but i will try: Between hills and rocks out with the sea, raise the norwegian fascinated his home, where he dug his "hills", He places his house upon them. He looked at the rocky beaches there was none, as there had lived. "Lets clean and build us hamlets, and so we own the *?rudningen?* safe ". He looked at the rough sea; there was hard make sail; but fish was playing in the sea, and the game, he wanted to see.

Maybe you should put more emotion into it, it sounds more like a recital than a song. But what a wonderful country you live in (where I live, the terrain is flat and all is concrete). Could you provide a translation of the lyrics, maybe?
