Текст и перевод песни Bjørn Eidsvåg - Mammas Song

Mammas Song

Eg gjor så godt eg konne
Eg vet det va kje nok
Eg va så redd og bunde
Te vår litle flokk
Dei sa at eg sko tåla
Eg grein og trygla og ba
Mens du mi litle solstråla
Blei mindre og mindre gla

Den smerten ein har
Når ein ser sitt barn ha det vondt
Kan ingen måla
å se sitt barns tillit og tru gå i sundt
Ska ingen tåla
Eg vet det nå
Men va kje sterk nok då
Støtten kom seint, men godt
Eg fekk mot te å dra
Ein ting har eg aldri forstått
Koffer sko å hold ut vær bra
Flokken blei skuffa og såra
Dei ga oss litt trøst, men mest skjenn
Eg blei trist, men felt ikkje ei tåra
Då dei sa: stakkars han som e igjen

Den smerten ein har
Når ein ser sitt barn ha det vondt
Kan ingen måla
å se sitt barns tillit og tru gå i sundt
Ska ingen tåla
Eg vet det nå
Men va kje sterk nok då

Me klarte å bygga et liv i lag
Men sårå va djupe og vonde
Eg ba te vårherre kver einaste dag
Om å gjør deg litt gla – om han konne

Den smerten ein har
Når ein ser sitt barn ha det vondt
Kan ingen måla
å se sitt barns tillit og tru gå i sundt
Ska ingen tåla
Eg vet det nå
Men va kje sterk nok då

Mamma's Song

I did the best I could
I know it wasn't enough
I was so scared and bound
To our little family
They said that I should endure
I cried and begged and pleaded
While you, my little ray of sunshine
Grew less and less happy

The pain one has
When they watch their child suffer
No one can truly measure
To see your child's trust and faith shatter
No one should tolerate
I know it now
But I wasn't strong enough then
Support came late, but it was good
I found the courage to leave
There's one thing I've never understood
Why should staying be the good thing?
The family was disappointed and hurt
They gave us a little comfort, but mostly criticism
I was sad, but didn't shed a tear
When they said: "Poor thing, he who remains."

The pain one has
When they watch their child suffer
No one can truly measure
To see your child's trust and faith shatter
No one should tolerate
I know it now
But I wasn't strong enough then

We managed to build a life together
But the wounds were deep and painful
I prayed to the Lord every single day
To make you a little happier – if He could

The pain one has
When they watch their child suffer
No one can truly measure
To see your child's trust and faith shatter
No one should tolerate
I know it now
But I wasn't strong enough then
