Оригинальный текст песни Hvölja
Guð
O Guð
Himinin er hvølja
Fjørðurin kjaftur
Etist mín verð
Guð brotnar
Hvøljan skrædnar
Í svartar veingir
Hevjast og fjatla
Fjóna mannalív
Bøn í ótíð
Til baldrandi brot
Um tú nakran taka skal
Tak tá meg
Kveistri burt klórandi skvatl
Slíti mót landi uttan flot
Ond undan sjónum at svølgja
Gresjandi stokkar
Førini eitt og eitt undir skugga
English Translation:
God
Dear God
The heavens are whaleskin
The fjord a gaping maw
My world is consumed
God disintegrates
The whaleskin rips
Into black wings
That rise and flutter
Disregard the lives of men
Prayer out of time
To the roaring waves
If you are to take anyone
Take me
Brushing off the scratching laps
Struggling to reach land with no float
To swallow the breath from beneath the sea
The crunching gunwales
The vessels - one by one - under the shadow
