Lyrics of Sivert & Hoinn - Too Far Gone

Sivert & Hoinn (original)

Plassn bortom ved ovn denj vart tom te slutt
Tebake sett ein gammel mannj
Så vart hanj fer sæ sjøl da
Hanj skrik som ein gutt
No må hanj itj gå fra vætt å for skam
Denj einast hanj hva gla ti
Hanjs følges vænn i alt
Denj einast som forsto koss kar hanj hva
Ein kjær og trofast partner som trødd når det gjaldt
Da konnj ingenting meir bli som det vart
Hanj Sivert e for sæ sjøl no
Det e ingen som snakke med hanj
Hanj sitt der og tænke på da dæm hva to
Hanj sivert og honj utn banj
Kvinnfolk vart det aldri, men sjan har hanj hatt
Ein gong han hva ung og sværtj
Og gårdn denj dreiv hanj sjølsæ ilag honnj og katt
Og hanj sjønnt da fort at livet skifta værs
Så ein dag mått hanj gi sæ
Sælgt kyrn og leid vækk jord
Og kveljan dæm vart drygg og timan vart lang
Men hanj plystra stilt på honnj sin
Når børa vart fer stor
Å det e rart kort godt ein honnj kanj varm ett fang
Hanj Siver e for sæ sjøl no
Det e ingen som snakke med hanj
Hanj sitt der og tænke på da dæm hva to
Hanj Sivert og honnj utn banj
Ein gammel manj reise sæ og brætt stilt mens hanj beir te gud om sinns

(translation)

Place beyond the oven until it was empty
An old man was seen in the background
Then he went off on his own
Hanj screams like a boy
Now he has to go from shame to shame
Denj only hanj what gla ti
Hanjs is followed in everything
The only one who understood who he was
A dear and faithful partner who stood up when it mattered
Then nothing could be as it was
Hanj Sivert is by himself now
There is no one to talk to him
Hanj sit there and think about then dæm what two
Hanj sievert and honj utn banj
There were never any women, but he's got the looks
Once he was young and very young
And the farm he drove himself with a hen and a cat
And even then, life changed rapidly
Then one day he had to give birth
Sold cows and rented out land
And the evening was long and the hours were long
But he whistled quietly at his wife
When the need was big
Oh it's weird short good ein honnj kanj warm ent fang
Hanj Siver is by himself now
There is no one to talk to him
Hanj sit there and think about then dæm what two
Hanj Sivert and honnj utn banj
An old man stood and stood still while he prayed to God for his mind
