Translation
Under the Mountain's Root
In the morning, I beheld on the mountain's ridge
A furrow as red as blood1
Deep I saw it descend
To the darkness of the mountain's root
At sunset, I beheld on the mountain's ridge
Now like flames they dance
In the summer night, children of the mountain tribe
In the darkness of the mountain's root
Bravely I clung onto the furrow’s gape
Soon I fell into the embrace of darkness
The song of ancient fathers was heard in the depths
From memory, I found
A song I never sung before
From my lips, from my chest it echoed
The song I never sung before
In the morning, I beheld on the cavern's vault
A glimpse of winter's white light
Then I stepped with haste
Out of the darkness of the mountain’s roots
At sunset, I beheld on the cold ground
A cover of snow and ice
There I sang for a moment
With the people of the mountain's root
- 1. Hjärteblod is literally "heart blood
