Paroles et traduction Teitur - Hugsa positivt

Hugsa positivt

Tað var við blandaðum kenslum at elefanturin fór
Ein fílur kom í staðin og undranin var stór
Síðan komu nógv onnur djór
Tað var rok í djóragarðinum

Men eg kalli ein spaka fyri ein spaka
Ein apa fer altíð at vera ein apa í mínari frumskóg

Tað nýggjasta orð í bókini er "jaligt"
Tey flestu royna longu øll at brúka tað
Men at fara "jaligt" til verka merkir ikki nakað
At vera "jaligur" er jú bara at siga "já!"

Eg havi valt at hugsa positivt
Halda eyga við hvørjum tað endar við
ímillum fólk eg møti

Tað eru ikki nógv fólkasløg sum
Fegin læra sítt móðurmál av nýggjum
Mitt í hesum hurlivasanum
Vita ikki øll hvat ið tey tosa um

Eg havi valt at hugsa positivt
Halda eyga við hvørjum tað endar við
ímillum fólk á gøtuni

Think Positive

The elephant left with mixed emotions
An elephant came instead and the wonder was great
Then came many other animals
There was a stir in the zoo

But I call a spade a spade
A monkey will always be a monkey in my jungle

The newest word in the book is "nice"
Most are already trying to use it
But to go "nice" to work does not mean anything
To be "nice" is just to say "yes!"

I have chosen to think positively
Keeping an eye on where it ends
among the people I meet

There are not many ethnic groups who
are happy to learn their native language again
In this turmoil
Not all know what they are talking about

I have chosen to think positively
Keeping an eye on where it ends
among the people on the street
