Paroles et traduction Bjørn Eidsvåg - Dåredans (Remastered)

Dåredans (Remastered)

Solå va' gått i havet
Og hang vel ein plass te' tørk
Ute sto månen lågt
Og kein på ei rimdekt bjørk
Inne hos meg dansa lyset
I eggande kåte kast
Eg va'forblinda og døvhørt,
Tankane holdt meg fast

Dåredans - dåredans - i kveld e' det dåredans
Dåredans - dåredans
Og dansen går rundt navlen
Uten stans - i dåredans

Tunnelen va' svart og grufull,
Litt spennande va' det jo og
Eg stokk då eg såg et lys -
Va det håp, eller kom det et tog?
For eg hadde funne han inn
Eg va' livredd og hadde det fælt
Og gjekk lenger in i tunnelen min

Dåredans - dåredans - i kveld e' det dåredans
Dåredans - dåredans
Og dansen går rundt navlen
Uten stans - i dåredans

Eg har gjennomklart og firsvart megg,
Eg har foretatt full obduksjon
Men e' akkurat like forvirra,
Eg fant igen svar eller konklusjon
Behovet for omsorg e' bunnlaust,
Eg forgår snart i klage og stønn
Så eg klappe og stryke med sjøl;
Koss va' Frans av Asissis bønn?

Dåredans - dåredans - i kveld e' det dåredans
Dåredans - dåredans
Og dansen går rundt navlen
Uten stans - i dåredans

Fools' Dance (Remastered)

The sun had set in the ocean
And hung somewhere to dry
Outside the moon was low
And swayed on a frosty birch
Inside me the light danced
In challenging horny throws
I was blinded and deaf,
My thoughts held me fast

Fools' Dance - Fools' Dance - Tonight it's a Fools' Dance
Fools' Dance - Fools' Dance
And the dance goes around the navel
Without stopping - in the Fools' Dance

The tunnel was black and gruesome,
A bit exciting it was too
I stopped when I saw a light -
Was it hope, or was a train coming?
For I had found him
I was terrified and felt awful
And went further into my tunnel

Fools' Dance - Fools' Dance - Tonight it's a Fools' Dance
Fools' Dance - Fools' Dance
And the dance goes around the navel
Without stopping - in the Fools' Dance

I have been through clear and pitch black,
I have performed a full autopsy
But I'm just as confused,
I found no answers or conclusions
The need for care is bottomless,
I am soon consumed by moaning and groaning
So I hug and pet myself;
What was the prayer of Francis of Assisi?

Fools' Dance - Fools' Dance - Tonight it's a Fools' Dance
Fools' Dance - Fools' Dance
And the dance goes around the navel
Without stopping - in the Fools' Dance
