Lyrics and translation Kari Bremnes - Tidlig




Tidlig
Dawn
Ho mamma spiste frokost
She, Mother, ate breakfast
æ drakk bære kaffe
I drank only coffee
Ho mamma e årntli
She, mother, is so proper
Det brukte å vær tili
It used to be so early
Usannsynlig tili
Incredibly early
Tili tili sommer
Early early summer
Bare vi og sola
Just we and the sun
Ingen andre oppe
Nobody else up
En og anna fuggel
An odd bird now and then
Ho og æ ilag
She and I together
Bare vi og sola
Just we and the sun
Og en og anna fuggel
And an odd bird now and then
Ingen andre oppe
Nobody else up
Tili sommerdag
Early summer day
Ho mamma satt i behåen
She, Mother, sat in her bra
æ hadde prekkat bikini
I had put on my bikini
verandaen i Svolvær
On the veranda in Svolvær
De brukte å vær sjelden
They used to be rare
Usannsynlig sjelden
Incredibly rare
Sånne sommertima
Such summer hours
Ho mamma va mye
She, Mother, was so much
æ va nesten ingen
I was almost nothing
Va såvidt ho Kari
Was hardly Kari
æ syns det va tynt
I considered it meager
Ingen andre oppe
Nobody else up
Bare vi og sola
Just me and the sun
En og anna fuggel
An odd bird now and then
Va såvidt begynt
Had barely begun
Ho mamma ska te Spania
She, Mother, is going to Spain
Tel ho Inger Johanne
To her, Inger Johanne
Som bor i Alicante
Who lives in Alicante
De brukte å vær 19
They used to be 19
Usannsynlig 19
Incredibly 19
En sommer i Europa
A summer in Europe
Reiste ifra Narvik
Travelled from Narvik
Haika med en malmbåt
Hitchhiked with an ore ship
Hadde med sykla
Had taken their bikes
I sin ungdoms vår
In the spring of their youth
æ føll ho inn flyet
I saw her off at the plane
De sykla i Paris
They cycled in Paris
En sommer i Europa
A summer in Europe
Nu e de 80 år
Now they're 80
Det brukte å vær tili
It used to be so early
Usannsynlig tili
Incredibly early
Tili tili sommer
Early early summer
