Du Nordavind

Arcturus

Et blekt avdagsleite

Famler hen, til nattvart himmel

Vandring hjem, til nattsvart himmel

Vandring hjem I eismal

Under skumringens tidligste stjerne

Tusm?rket dypner I det fjerne



Du nordavind, jeg speider fjern og n?r

Kommer du igjen fra de ?e land hvor ingen mann er?



Tilsammen - vi to. over beksvart hav



Enn om du aldri hit vil komme

Jeg tilbyi deg mitt kj?lnende blod

Evig vil min sjel skue mot nord

Stundom mitt sinn skal reise

Til tid tar slutt paa jord



Hver en j?vel vill

Som sank I vann f?r tid var til...

Jeg drev forlatt og vandret vill

Ennu har du ikke h?rt mitt hill

I tomme natten skimjet jeg

Et glimt av land, en evig ild



[English translation:]



[You Notherwind]



A pale hour of the day

Grope away, to the night-black sky

Wandering home, to the night-black sky

Wandering home alone

Under evening's earliest star

Twilight sinks in the distance



You northern wind, I'm looking far and near

Will you come again from the wasteland where there is no one?



Together - we two over black pitch sea



Even if you'll never come here

I can give you my chilling blood

Forever will my soul look at the north

Often my soul shall journey

Until time ends on earth



As wild as a devil

That sank in the water before time was

I walked alone and wandered in the wilderness

Still you didn't hear my call

In the empty night I can see

A glare in the land, an eternal fire
