"She existed. I saw her in a certain village years ago, when I was a young travelling worker. I fell in love with her, but did not know she was mentally ill. I found out soon and felt the right thing to do was leaving the place. She lost her husband on sea and couldn’t handle it. When I read she was dead, I recalled her story. Some of the text is fiction, bust mostly it’s true. The text is about her - and all the other women who have lost husbands, brothers and sons to the ocean.” -Bubbi, 1994
I was together with a girl from Iceland that loved this song, it also made a deep impact on me personally, and I many times have to go back to listen to this song, it reminds me of her and how much I loved her, despite the lyrics wich are pretty sad... Each time I listen to the song, I realize how much I really do love my old love Kristin, even tho she is not around me anymore, and either will she ever be again...
It's about a man who gets a bad job and a small room in a small town and one day he sees a local woman standing and staring at the ocean, he sees her dancing. Each night she's on the cliffs looking at the sea. Her eyes are green and deep and stare into the ocean. He is told her husband drowned, a fisherman. She cries looking into the waves. The man in the small room can't stop thinking about her and falls in love. He leaves the small town but thinks of her when he hears another boat has sunk.
The only thing I understand from this song is "hafið" but the voice reminds me of the way certain French chanson singers and Spanish troubadours sing... I love the voice...also, the simplicity of the music that can only but to enhance just about enough the story told in the lyrics (which is usually the most important thing)... I just wish I could understand what he's singing about... which, I'm guessing has something to do with the sea. And... I love that too :D
eg skil ekki had thetta allt saman - koke, obaman - hefur ad gera vid laginu. eg vann i fiski or gistadi i verkbud. ek elska laginu! stanislav, russneskur
no problem, it's not literal of course but I didn't have enough space to type the whole thing literally - maybe I'll do it later in several segments if I get some downtime
@notblondeswede inte allt i svenska och isländska er likt, för exempel ordet fött :P Det betyder en helt annan sak på isländska, tror att några andra här har redan förklarat vad det egentligen betyder ^^ Jag är från Island förresten ...
Iceland has the highest education rate per people in the world. We are one of the leading countries in environment issues. The whales are not in extinction danger in the northern sea. And if you are from USA then this might interest you that USA fishing ships kill more whales than any other country combine. And they also destroy their ecosystem. We have rules about how many whales we can hunt and we hold the size of the stock steady. Sorry for my bad English. great song by the way.

A friend from iceland told me about Bubbi´s songs and I really like it.

And... I love that too :D
I simply close my eyes and listen to the music.
Beautiful and moving!!
