Elen Skum (Elle)

De rahpasii giđđaeatnu fasDe dulvvi miel luoittašeimmetJiekŋaidja gárttai viimat vuollánitBieggabártnažan

De girdilin biellocizažiinDe joradin guovssahasainVuoibmás vuoiŋŋ ahagas šogádeimme ovttasMu bieggabártnažan

De rahtase jienaheamit fasDe golggiihii sátnerávdnjiGálbmon gáttiin go mii viimat gávnnadeimmetBieggabártnažan

Go váccašat ealloravddas de...Go guođuhat suhkesoivviid...Almmiravda ealaska ja sugadaMu bieggabártnažan

Elle

And so the spring river opened up againAnd so we let ourselves drift with the floodThe night of ice had to give inMy dearest son of the wind

Surely I flew with the bluethroatSurely I danced with the northern lightIn the strongest of breath we exhaled as oneMy dearest son of the wind

The lips of the silenced people bursted out in speechThe stream of words once again were flowingOver the frozen riverbanks when we finally came togetherMy dearest son of the wind

When you´re walking alongside the reindeer-herd...When you guard the reindeer-oxen with the great antlers...All of the horizon comes alive and starts to moveMy dearest son of the wind
