Lyrics and translation Ego - Mescalin

Mescalin

Jafnvel þótt himininn
Dragi gluggatjöld sín frá
Mun dáleiðandi þokan
Liggja glugga þínum á.

Himininn brotnar í ljóðum,
Nakið undur.
Kristaldýr í garðinum
Molnar í sundur.

Hálfluktum augum
Starði ég inn
Rafmagnað ljósið
Strauk mína kinn.

Hvíslandi þögnin reis
úr dvalanum í gær
Bergmál vorsins í
Garðinum hennar grær.

Á heitum kvöldum
Hún kallar mig sinn vin
Með augu eins og demanta,
Sem lýsa upp himininn.

Hún dansar fram á nætur í tunglsljósinu tryllt
Gulli roðið hár hennar
þyrlast úfið, villt.

Garðinn hennar vöktuðu
Sex japanskir vígamenn
Sem aldrei fóru af verðinum,
Nema einn og einn í senn.

Ef þú vilt hana gleðja
Skaltu senda á morgun blóm
Hún hefur stærra hjarta,
Dýpri augu en páfinn í Róm.

Jafnvel þótt himininn
Dragi gluggatjöld sín frá
Mun dáleiðandi þokan
Liggja glugga þínum á.

Augu þín sljóvga
Líkt og þú rýnir í svartan hyl
Milli þín og drauma hennar liggur fingurbreytt bil.

Mescaline

Even if the heavens
Pull back their curtains
The insidious fog
Will cover your window.

The heavens break in poems,
A naked wonder.
Crystal animals in the garden
Melt to the ground.

Half-closed eyes
I gaze into
The electric light
Stroked my cheek.

The hissing silence rose
from the slumber in yesterday
The sermon of spring in
Her garden grows.

On hot evenings
She calls me her friend
With eyes like diamonds,
That light up the heavens.

She dances into the nights in the moonlight enchanted
Golden red her hair
streams wildly, tangled.

Her garden was guarded
By six Japanese samurai
Who never left the world,
But one by one at a time.

If you want to make her happy
You must send flowers tomorrow
She has a bigger heart,
Deeper eyes than the pope in Rome.

Even if the heavens
Pull back their curtains
The insidious fog
Will cover your window.

Your eyes squint
As if you're peering into a black abyss
Between you and her dreams lies a finger's width.
