Текст и перевод песни Eivør - Myrkursins náði

Myrkursins náði

Myrkursins náði
Í dag hava fuglar ei sungið eitt lag.
Tað var, eins og slóknaði sólin í dag,
Og jørðin, hon helt uppat við at mala
Og børnini hildu uppat við at spæla.
Stjørnurnar duttu allar niður av himni,
Pg mánin, hann fánaði burtur og inni.
Í stovuni míni ei hoyrdist eitt ljóð,
í myrkursins djúpastu náði eg stóð.
Myrkursins náði,
Myrkursins náði,
Myrkursins náði fevndi meg,
Fevndi meg.
Henda løtan, hon dró meg til ógingnar gøtur
Til heimsins byrjan og til lívsins djúpastu røtur.
Og myrkrið var hvørki ónt ella kalt,
Nei, myrkrið var ei enn blivið ónt ella kalt
Tað einasta, eg hoyrdi, vóru undarlig ljóð,
Men so føgur og rein og so yndislig ljóð,
Og einki var endað, og einki var byrjað,
Og einki var sjónligt, og einki var hyljað.
Myrkursins náði,
Myrkursins náði,
Myrkursins náði fevndi meg,
Fevndi meg.
Myrkursins náði,
Myrkursins náði,
Myrkursins náði fevndi meg,
Fevndi meg.

The Embrace of Darkness

The Embrace of Darkness
Today, no birds have sung a single note.
It was as if the sun had been extinguished today,
And the earth had ceased to spin
And the children had stopped playing.
The stars, they all fell down from the sky,
And the moon, it waned away inside and out.
In my room, not a sound was heard,
In the embrace of darkness's deepest depths, I stood.
The Embrace of Darkness,
The Embrace of Darkness,
The Embrace of Darkness enfolds me,
Enfolds me.
That night, it led me to uncharted roads
To the beginning of the world and to the deepest roots of life.
And the darkness was neither evil nor cold,
No, the darkness had not yet become evil or cold
The only thing I heard were strange sounds,
But such beautiful, pure and lovely sounds,
And nothing was ended, and nothing was begun,
And nothing was visible, and nothing was hidden.
The Embrace of Darkness,
The Embrace of Darkness,
The Embrace of Darkness enfolds me,
Enfolds me.
The Embrace of Darkness,
The Embrace of Darkness,
The Embrace of Darkness enfolds me,
Enfolds me.
