Bíum bíum bambaló [English translation]

Bíum bíum bambaló

Bambaló og dillidillidó

My little friend I lull to rest

But outside, a face looms at the window

When the mighty mountains

fill your chest with burning desire,

I will play the langspil

and soothe your mind

Bíum bíum bambaló

Bambaló og dillidillidó

My little friend I lull to rest

But outside, a face looms at the window

When the cruel storms rage

and the dark blizzard crouches above,

I shall light five candles

and drive away the winter/twilight shadows
