Storm Mellom Bakkar Og Berg

[Nordmannen]



Mellom bakkar og berg ut med havet

Heve nordmannen fenge sin heim

Der han sjolv heve tuftene grave

Og sett sjolv sine hus oppa deim



Han sag ut pa dei steinute strender

Det var ingen, som der hadde bygt

Lat oss rydja og byggja oss grender

Og so eiga me rudningen trygt



Han sag ut pa det barute havet

Det var ruskut a leggja utpa

Men det leikade fisk med i kavet

Og den leiken den ville han sja



Hill nordmann



Fram pa vinteren stundom han tenkte

Gjev eg var her til evig tid

Og nar nordljoset skinner i fra oven

Blir hans stalhjerte fylt med grusom savn



[Between Hills And Mountains (translation)]



Between hills and mountains out by the sea

The norseman have found his home

Where he himself have digged the foundations

And himself has placed his houses upon them



He stared out on the stone-covered shores

There was noone, who there had built

Let us clear a place and build farms

And then we will safely own the clearing



He stared out at the waves on the sea

It was rough to embark out there

But fish played down in the bustle

And that playing he wanted to see



Hail norseman



In the winter he seldom thought

If only I were here forever

And when the northern lights shines from above

His steelheart is filled with grusome longing
