Translation of the song lyrics Natt utover havet - Iskald

Natt utover havet (original)

Det er natt utover havet.
Allting har nå talt.
Det stilner for de svake.
Mitt liv det har gått galt.
Et vers jeg sitter å skriver i min vesle grav.
Mitt seil får ingen vind.
På det åpne hav.
Festen min er over.
Min sjel den er jo pint.
Havet det har stilnet.
Vinden blåser fint.
Dyster er min salme, for jeg skal vise vei.
For alle de andre falne.
Din kniv gikk gjennom meg.
Jeg hørte hva du sa mor da jeg forlot deg der.
Stående ved porten du var meg alltid kjær.
Du ga et liv til meg.
Det skulle du ikke gjort.
Festen rammet meg hardt mor.
Og rev livet bort.
Jeg dro ut i krigen og våpnet mitt ble slitt.
Men det var bare drømmen.
Her vil alt bli hvitt.
Med omsorg ble jeg hyllet.
Og gjorde min plikt som mann.
I krig med krutt og klinge vi erobret det mørke land.
Men alle ting skal ende.
Jeg ser det for meg nå.
Du passet meg så godt mor.
Nå må du la meg gå.

Natt utover havet (translation)

It's night beyond the sea.
Everything has now spoken.
It calms down for the weak.
My life it has gone wrong.
A verse I am writing to write in my little grave.
My sail gets no wind.
On the high seas.
My party is over.
My soul, it's pint.
The sea it has calmed down.
The wind is blowing nicely.
Gloomy is my hymn, for I will show the way.
For all the others fallen.
Your knife went through me.
I heard what you said mother when I left you there.
Standing at the gate you were always dear to me.
You gave me a life.
You should not have done that.
The party hit me hard mom.
And tore life away.
I went to war and my weapon was worn out.
But that was just the dream.
Here everything will be white.
With care I was hailed.
And did my duty as a man.
In war with gunpowder and blade we conquered the dark land.
But all things must end.
I see it in my mind now.
You looked after me so well mother.
Now you have to let me go.
