Lyrics Bjork – Álfur Út Úr Hól
Text:
Icelandic:
Dag eftir dag
Einsamall á hól
Náunginn undarlegi
Enginn vill um hann vita
Og þeir benda hvar kjánnin fer
Han þraukar samt áfram sjálfur
Veizt um álf ut á hól
Hann sér dýrðlega sól
Og hans augu sjá meir
þau sjá heim, falinn þeim
Bidd’ann um hjálp
þá kemur han fljótt
Hann sem á þúsund raddir
Hvislar sannleikan hljótt
Enginn vill hlusta á hann
Eða hljóðin í leyndum söng
Hann virðist samt ekki vita
Veizt um álf ut á hól…
Enginn vil líta til hans
Í kofanum suður með sjó
Han þraukar samt áfram sjálfur
Veizt um álf ut á hól…
Enginn vill hlusta á hann
Og þeir benda hvar kjáninn fer
Han þraukar samt áfram sjálfur
Veizt um álf ut á hól…
English (The Fool on the Hill):
Day after day
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…
