Fleyið [English translation]

Stepping slowly above sleep-drowned earth

Heavy steps,

to the glass-smooth fjord.

Takes the boat and leaves,

and goes far out to the sea.

Singing "oh, oh, oh,"

If I don't come back home,

Oh, oh, oh,

You must say goodbye to them,

those who stand vigil and wait for me

With the birr under my wings and

the wind in my sails I go far.

Oh, oh, oh,

If I don't come home.

You must fly fast,

now, my boat.

Against the sun, higher, you soar.

Singing "oh, oh, oh,"

If I don't come back home,

Oh, oh, oh,

You must say goodbye to them,

those who stand vigil and wait for me

With the birr under my wings and

the wind in my sails I go far.

Oh, oh, oh,

If I don't come home.
