Jordvisa [English translation]

I want to sing, Of deepest forest

So overgrown, vivid, mystical and somber

I want to speak to the ground, the earth, and to you

I want to sing, of age-old trees

Oaks, Ash, Whitebeam and Acorn

I want to breathe the whole beauty of the world surrounding me

And my fingers want to dig in the ground

Turn over stones, that lay in peace for so long

Want to find treasures and gemstones, for you

Field covered in rapeseed, blue linseed field

The ground of our fathers, where the turf is overturned

So much in love, forlorn, yet vivid in my dream

Field covered in rapeseed, blue linseed field

midsummer valley, dandelions and grain

So much in love, forlorn, yet vivid in my dream

All of this holds value for me

Value to be kept, to be cared for and tended

Nature's, heavy industry, makes me free (1)

Say, can you feel the windy breeze

Heavenly tears wetting your hair

Enjoying the grass and gravel, on which you go ?

And here in the shadow of a gnarled acorn tree

Surrounded by weeds, fir trees, and common stone

I listen to summer tales being told

Smell the scent of rose and lilac

Field covered in rapeseed, blue linseed field

The ground of our fathers, where the turf is overturned

So much in love, forlorn, yet vivid in my dream

Field covered in rapeseed, blue linseed field

midsummer valley, dandelions and grain

So much in love, forlorn, yet vivid in my dream
