Translation of the song lyrics Ravnestrupe - Khold

Ravnestrupe (original)

Jeg kaster min skygge
over verden i argskap.
Jeg kommer over skogen
i tordnende hot.
Jeg farer som aske
og svartlegger tiden.
Jeg brer meg i harme
i kvelende sot.
Kast deg ned,
vern ditt leven,
vit det blir
i fåfeng streven.
Ravnestrupens tunge toner
bærer i det stille, sorte,
over høye furukroner,
klagende, blir langsomt borte.

Ravnestrupe (translation)

I cast my shadow
over the world in anger.
I come across the forest
in thundering hot.
I're like ashes
and blackens the time.
I spread in anger
in suffocating soot.
Throw yourself down,
protect your life,
know it will be
in vain striving.
Ravnestrupen's heavy tones
wears in the quiet, black,
over high pine crowns,
complaining, is slowly disappearing.
