Eivør Brotin song lyrics
Eivør Brotin translation
Tú ert brotin
You are broken
farin í tvíningar
split into two
veingjaskotin
Your wings are cut
finnur onga meining í nøkrum
can't find purpose in anything
kennir teg læstan
You feel trapped
fastan í fjøtrum
bound in shackles
Hvussu loysir tú
How do you unbind this knot
hendan sálarknút?
in your soul?
Hvussu brýtur tú út
How do you break out
ímillum tær trongu rimarnar
between the narrow bars
út í ein opnan heim sum rúmar tær?
Into an open world that can hold you?
Dansa vilt í náttini svørtu
Dancing wildly in the black night
kenna ikki morgunin enn
Don't know the morning yet
okkara brotnu hjørtu
Our broken hearts
taka eitt fet í senn
Take one step at a time
Eg veit at tú
I know that you
ert ikki ólíkur mær
are not unlike me
undir hyljandi húð
Under covering skin
vovin úr sama vevnaði
Woven from the same fabric
tráandi eftir eydnuni
Longing for happiness
eins og eg
just like me
Dansa vilt í náttini reyðu
Dancing wildly in the red night
kenna ikki morgunin enn
Don't know the morning yet
berjast ímóti streyminum
Fighting against the current
taka eitt fet í senn
Take one step at a time
Dansa vilt í náttini reyðu
Dancing wildly in the red night
síggja ikki sólina enn
Can't see the sun yet
ongantíð vóru vit eins og tey
We never were like them
vit taka eitt fet í senn
We take one step at a time
vit taka eitt fet í senn
We take one step at a time
