Verd Mín (original)Verd Mín (translation)
Fríða náttin er ein eimurThe gentle night distills in azure steam,
Stjørnugrús, nú vaknar heimurStardust sifts—a world stirs from its slumber,
Nakin standi egI stand unveiled,
Eina her.Alone, a host at war.
Maður vakur men so styggurA man: so fair, yet shadowed at the edges,
Nærkast varisliga, hyggurHe nears with wary eyes, his intent veiled;
Taradimt er hárHis hair—dim as dusk-touched bronze,
Tinnuhúð.His skin glints, sharp as hammered tin.
Verð mín,Be mine,
Verð mín,Be mine,
Verð mín.Be mine.
Undan fert tú eftir hæliYou flee—pursuing shelter’s covert grace,
Bangin, stundar eftir sæluTrembling, you pant for moments touched by rapture,
Tøld eg fylgi tærEntranced, I trace your path,
Verð hjá mær.Stay near me now.
Nærkast hav og himmalrendurSea and sky’s horizon presses closer,
Kveiktar skelva tínar hendurYour hands—lit embers—shudder in the darkness,
Til tín komi innLet my voice find its way within you,
Nem við meg.Reach—brush me, let us be.
Verð mín,Be mine,
Verð mín,Be mine,
Verð mín.Be mine.
Skrínið læsti, lykil fjaldiThe casket locked, the secret key concealed,
Signaði ímóti galdriSealed with blessings, warded against witchery,
Maður er mítt havYou are the ocean I have claimed,
Nátt er av.Night’s curtain falls.
Tokkabundin hann meg fevnirBound by longing’s spell, he folds me close,
Nevnir meg ein eydnulutHe calls me fate’s rare token,
Farin eru øllAll others scattered, gone,
Einsamøll.I am the solitary one.
Verð mín,Be mine,
Verð mín,Be mine,
Verð mín.Be mine.
Mín ham mítt hylkiMy skin, my sheath—
Eg sakni tað ikki,I do not mourn its loss,
Ein ham eitt hylkiA single skin, a single shell—
Eg gloymi tað ikki.That I will not forget.
