Kjærlighetsspråk’s Strand Norwegian Lyrics English Translation

Jørgen Nordeng offers a specific image of a quiet shore. The poet writes, ‘where you and the waves can wash ashore,’ turning the beach into a place for healing. He mentions seaweed and a cool breeze, inviting a moment to simply watch the sun set.

Æ skal finn dæ ei strandI’ll find a beach for you,
Der du kan kjenn at det går anwhere you can feel that it’s possible,
Å overlev etter å ha tapt et slagto survive after losing a battle.
Og mimmer om et liv en gangReminisce about the life you once had,
Der du og bølgan kan slå i landwhere you and the waves can wash ashore.
Og fuglan søng førr de som førsvannThe birds sing for those who’ve vanished,
Og du kan øv dæ på å vær som vannand you can practice being like water,
Mens tida renn sakte ut i sandwhile time slowly slips away into the sand.
Æ skal finn dæ ei strandI’ll find a beach for you.
Æ skal finn dæ ei strandI’ll find a beach for you,
Ei som e bare e dione that’s yours and yours alone,
Der du kan kontempler altwhere you can contemplate everything,
Alt som fløyg dæ førrbieverything that flew right past you.
Alt som virkaEverything that seemed,
Som kampa som virkelig va viktig å vinnlike battles that were truly important to win.
Nu kan du len dæ tebake og vit det ikke betyr nån tingNow you can lean back and know it doesn’t mean a thing,
Og du kan rekalibrerand you can recalibrate,
Du kan reevalueryou can re-evaluate.
Mens det dufta av tare og tang, og et lavtrykk pusta liv i håretWhile the scent of seaweed fills the air, and a cool breeze breathes life into your hair,
Bæ læn dæ tilbake i fluktstolen din og se på mens sola går nedjust lean back in your deck chair and watch the sun go down.
Æ skal finn dæ ei strandI’ll find a beach for you.
