Текст и перевод песни Bjørn Eidsvåg - Aleina (Remastered)

Aleina (Remastered)

Nå står eg her og vakle øve avgrunnen igjen
Kaos smile te meg som om eg va ein gammal venn
Eg har gått meg sjøl te blods - eg e hudlaus og naken
Om det bare va et mareritt, men eg e lys vaken

Aleina, aleina
Aleina, aleina igjen

Eg sprang te "psykofolket". Dei sa: "det e bare, bare"
Og menigheten sang: "ingen e så trygg for fare"
Min venn, kunstneren, grein, for han va sjøl så misforstått
Og menigmannen sa: "det vil nå helst gå godt"

Aleina, aleina
Aleina, aleina igjen

Nåken ropte: "sunnhet", - andre va'kje inne
Dei hadde skifta image og sluppe te der solå skinne
Alle hadde håver, men nåken mangla føter
Dei fauk omkring med vinden og skreiv ut "ikkje in nok"- bøter

Aleina, aleina
Aleina, aleina igjen

Så gjekk eg te meg sjøl. Eg hadde kappa og linjal
Eg stod og preika fine ord om avmakt og moral
Så det va'kje møkje hjelp å få i selskap med meg sjøl
- Kom legestand og svirebrødre- gi meg dop og øl!

Aleina, aleina
Aleina, aleina igjen

Alone (Remastered)

Now I stand here and flounder above the precipice again
Chaos smiles at me as if I were an old friend
I've bled myself dry - I'm skinless and naked
If it was only a nightmare, but I'm wide awake

Alone, alone
Alone, alone again

I ran to the "psycho people". They said: "it's just, just"
And the congregation sang: "no one is so safe from danger"
My friend, the artist, cried, because he was so misunderstood
And the common man said: "it will probably be alright"

Alone, alone
Alone, alone again

Some shouted: "sanity", - others were not there
They had changed their image and let them go where the sun shines
Everyone had nets, but some were missing feet
They flew about with the wind and wrote out "not enough in" - fines

Alone, alone
Alone, alone again

Then I went to myself. I had a ruler and a compass
I stood and preached beautiful words about powerlessness and morality
So there wasn't much help to be had in the company of myself
- Come doctors and brothers- give me drugs and beer!

Alone, alone
Alone, alone again
