The poem to the song, by Icelandic writer Halla Eyjólfsdóttir (born 1866 in West Iceland), is an ode to the past wherein the narrator claims that the sweet memories which haunt her day and night will never be forgotten.
Ég lít í anda liðna tíð
er leynt í hjarta geymi.
Sú ljúfa minning létt og hljótt
hún læðist til mín dag og nótt,
svo aldrei, aldrei gleymi.
