Translation of the song lyrics Vísur Vatnsenda Rósu - Björk

Vísur Vatnsenda Rósu (original)

Augun þín, augun, steina
Mitt, þitt, mitt
Þú, hvað ég meina
Augun þín og augun mín
Ó, þá fögru steina
Mitt var þitt og þitt var mitt
Þú veist hvað ég meina
Langt er síðan sá ég hann
Sannlega fríður var hann
Allt sem prýða má einn mann
Mest af lýðum bar hann
Þig ég trega manna mest
Mædda af tara flóði
Ó, að við hefðum aldrei sést
Elsku vinurinn góði

Vísur Vatnsenda Rósu (translation)

Your eyes, your eyes, rocks
Mine, yours, mine
You, what do I mean
Your eyes and my eyes
Oh, those beautiful rocks
Mine was yours and yours was mine
You know what I mean
I saw him a long time ago
He was truly beautiful
Everything that can be adorned is one person
He carried most of the people
I hate you the most
Tired of tare flood
Oh, that we had never seen each other
Dear good friend
