Paroles et traduction Bjørn Eidsvåg - Fly, Barn, Fly (Remastered)

Fly, Barn, Fly (Remastered)

Å så fint de lekte sammen
De stakk seg bort og gjor'
Ulovlige ting
De trosset forbud, de trosset
Skammen
De fløy arm i arm med hver sin
Ving
Gjemt bort i kroken, kott og
Under bord
Fant de opp språket som ikke
Trenger ord
De fløy over gjenlåste porter
De sprang som lettbente hjorter

Fly barn, fly
Til Soria Moria slott
Fly like til Paradis
Fly og ha det godt
En dag tar leken slutt
Med rynker i pannen går de hver til sitt

En liten pike, en liten gutt
Blir tatt av skammen for de lekte litt
De møtte noe de ikke forsto
De var uten ord, de levde, de lo
De våknet som voksne i samme båt,
Fant ordene igjen og gråt.

Fly barn, fly ...

Syng barn, syng
Syng i dur, syng i moll
Syng like til Paradis
Syng bort alle troll
De søkte en tilhørighet de aldri
Kunne få
De søkte en helhet bare drømmer kunne nå

Fly barn, fly ...

Fly, Child, Fly (Remastered)

Oh, how beautifully they played together
They hid and did
Unlawful things
They defied bans, they defied
Shame
They flew arm in arm each with their
Wing
Hidden away in a corner, cupboard and
Under the table
They invented a language that didn't
Need words
They flew over locked gates
They leapt like graceful deer

Fly, child, fly
To Soria Moria castle
Fly straight to Paradise
Fly and have a good time
One day the game will end
With wrinkles on their foreheads they each go their separate ways

A little girl, a little boy
Are shamed because they played a bit
They encountered something they didn't understand
They were without words, they lived, they laughed
They woke up as adults in the same boat.
They found the words again and wept.

Fly, child, fly ...

Sing, child, sing
Sing in G major, sing in A minor
Sing straight to Paradise
Sing away all trolls
They sought a sense of belonging that they could never
Have
They sought a wholeness that only dreams could reach

Fly, child, fly ...
