Translation of the song lyrics Etter stormen - Glittertind

Etter stormen (original)

Etter stormen såg eg ingenting
Ingenting av alt eg såg
Etter stormen dreiv eg rundt i ring
Og undra på kor landet låg
Etter stormen blanke auge bar
Himmelen så rar og bleik
Etter stormen fann eg ingen svar
Viljevarden visna veik
Eg kom drivande som båt i brann
På dei blåe bylgjer knust i strand
Eg drøymde ein draum
Eg trudde var sann
Eg livde eit liv
Som forsvann
Etter stormen reiv ut ryggen min
Såg eg ingen slott som skein
Etter stormen ingen glitretind
Såg eg ingen himmelheim
Eg var 'kje klar for denne kalde jord
Eg var 'kje klar, eg hadde ingen ord
Eg drøymde ein draum
Eg trudde var sann
Eg livde eit liv
Som forsvann
Eg ville flyge langt derifrå
Ut til allheimen den blå
Eg virra rundt i ein ynskjebrunn
Og lengta etter mysterium
Sjå verda spinn bak det kvite-grå
Med alle skapningar på skrå
Me virrar rundt i ein ynskjebrunn
Og lengtar etter mysterium
Eg var 'kje klar for denne kalde jord
Eg var 'kje klar, eg hadde ingen ord
Eg drøymde ein draum
Eg trudde var sann
Eg livde eit liv
Som forsvann

Etter stormen (translation)

After the storm I saw nothing
None of everything I saw
After the storm, I drove around in a circle
And wonder where the country lay
After the storm shining eyes bare
The sky looked strange and pale
After the storm, I found no answer
Willpower withers weak
I came drifting like a boat on fire
On the blue waves crushed in beach
I had a dream
I thought was true
I lived a life
Which disappeared
After the storm tore out my back
I saw no castle that shone
After the storm no glitter
I saw no heaven
I was not ready for this cold earth
I was not ready, I had no words
I had a dream
I thought was true
I lived a life
Which disappeared
I would fly far from there
Out to the universe the blue
I wandered around in a well
And longing for mystery
See the world spin behind the white-gray
With all creatures at an angle
We wander around in a well
And longs for mystery
I was not ready for this cold earth
I was not ready, I had no words
I had a dream
I thought was true
I lived a life
Which disappeared
