[Intro]
From fire and ice the old Gods wake
Welcome to the land that earthquakes make!
 
[Verse 1]
Land of the midnight sun and the northern flame
Where volcanoes roar and glaciers stake their claim
Puffins on the cliffs, hot springs kiss the sky
If you fear the cold, you came here to die!
 
[Chorus]
THIS IS ICELAND! Raise the hammer high!
THIS IS ICELAND! Beneath the raven sky!
Black sand, blue lagoons, the wind will cut you raw
THIS IS ICELAND! Skál and þetta reddast, motherfucker, JÁ!
Þetta er Ísland, land elds og ísa
Þar sem jöklar brotna og hafðu enga vísu!
 
[Verse 2]
Drive the Ring Road, sheep in threes appear
One for luck, two for death, the third says "buy more beer"
Golden Circle, Seljalandsfoss behind the veil
Slip on wet rocks, you tourist, you will fail!
 
[Chorus]
THIS IS ICELAND! The troll cross guards the pass!
THIS IS ICELAND! Your rental car’s an ass!
Geysir blows, the ground will eat your soul
THIS IS ICELAND! Welcome to the troll-controlled knoll!
Þetta er Ísland, þú ert gestur hérna
En náttúran ríkir, hún fyrirgefur engum svona!
 
[Bridge]
No McDonald's! No fucking trees!
44% believe in huldufólk, yes!
Swim in the lagoon, freeze your balls in the sea
Then drink Brennivín, the Black Death sets you free!
 
[Verse 3]
Hallgrímskirkja towers like a warship's prow
Reykjavík nights, the elves are watching now
Eat the hákarl, puke behind the church
Skál to the hidden people, we’re all berserk!
 
[Chorus]
THIS IS ICELAND! The saga never ends!
THIS IS ICELAND! Where the world breaks and mends!
Aurora burns, the rift is tearing wide
THIS IS ICELAND! You'll leave, but part of you has died!
Þetta er Ísland, blóð mitt, bein mín, sál!
Þetta er Ísland, þú munt aldrei fara heil!
 
[Outro]
Velkomin til Íslands, land þúsund ára sögu
Eldur brennur enn í hjarta hvers manns hérna
Jöklar sunga gamlar vísur um hetjur liðnar
Og norðurljós dansa yfir gröf Víkinga
Þetta er Ísland, þetta er Ísland
Aldrei deyja, aldrei deyja
ÍSLAND! ÍSLAND! ÍSLAND!
 
[Final Chorus]
SKÁÁÁÁL!
