Vögguljóð

Yfir landið rökkurró
rennur eins og móða,
sofnar fuglafjöld í mó,
fölnar loftið rjóða.
 
Bundin er í báða skó,
byrgir þokan hljóða,
útsýnið um allan sjó,
alla götuslóða.
 
Blunda, væna barn, í ró,
blundaðu, elskan, góða.
 
Translation

Lullaby

Over the land a twilight-calm
flows like a river,
sleeps the flock of birds in peat,
the blood-red sky grows paler.
 
Our hands are tied,
the mist muffles all sound,
the view over the sea,
over the trails of the streets.
 
Snooze, friendly child, in peace,
would that you would sleep, dear, peacefully.
