Paroles et traduction Svavar Knútur - Undir Birkitré - Repainted

Undir Birkitré - Repainted

Einn ég dvel og velti um heiminn vöngum
Bærist laufið græna, bærist laufið græna
Hérna get ég setið stundum löngum
Syngur lækjarspræna, syngur lækjarspræna

Undir birkitré, undir birkitré
Allar heimsins þrautir og þrár verða smáar eins og ég
Undir grænu birkitré, birkitré

Engin tár og engar lífsins sorgir
Bærist laufið græna, bærist laufið græna
Aðeins gola og gullnar skýjaborgir
Syngur lækjarspræna, syngur lækjarspræna

Under the Birch Tree - Repainted

I linger alone and ponder the fickle world, my dear
The verdant leaves dance in the breeze, the verdant leaves dance in the breeze
Here, I can sit for hours at a time
The babbling brook sings its sweet tune, the babbling brook sings its sweet tune

Under the birch tree, under the birch tree
All the world's hardships and desires become as small as me
Under the verdant birch tree, birch tree

No tears or sorrows of life
The verdant leaves dance in the breeze, the verdant leaves dance in the breeze
Only the cooing of doves and golden castles in the sky
The babbling brook sings its sweet tune, the babbling brook sings its sweet tune
