Glittertind "Nordafjells" lyrics

Translation to:enfrro

Nordafjells

Eg reiste meg ein gong nordafjells,det kom så stor ein snjór.Men rjúpa lånte meg vengjane sine,og alt eg såg på jord.

Eg reiste ein gong nordafjells,eg såg fem langskip kome.Og sigla bar eit framand merkje,og vår tid er no omme.

Ja, eg hev vori meg opp med skyog nedatt på havsens oddar!Og den som vil mine fotspor fylgja,han må 'ki ha tunge loddar!

Eg reiste ein gong nordafjells,det kom på meg slik snjór.Men rjúpa lånte meg øyro sine,og alt eg høyrde på jord.

Eg reiste ein gong nordafjells,eg såg ein høvding kome.Og Olav Tryggvason var hansnavn, og mi tid er no omme.

Ja, eg hev vori meg opp med skyog nedatt på havsens oddar!Og den som vil mine fotspor fylgja,han må 'ki ha tunge loddar!

North of the mountains

Once I traveled north of the mountains1,There came such a heavy snow.But the ptarmingan2 lent me her wings,And I saw everything on the earth

Once I traveled north of the mountains,I saw five longships come.And the sails bore a strangers sigil,And our time was at an end.

Yes, I have been into the skyAnd down to the oceans edge!And those who wishes to tread my path,mustn't have heavy loads!

Once I traveled north of the mountains,There came such a heavy snow.But the ptarmingan lent me her ears,And I heard everything on earth.

Once I traveled north of the mountains,I saw a chieftain come.And Olav Tryggvason 3 was his name,And my time is now at an end.

Yes, I have been into the skyAnd down to the oceans edge!And those who wishes to tread my path,mustn't have heavy loads!
