Enslaved Strre Enn Tid Tyngre Enn Natt Lyrics

Strre Enn Tid Tyngre Enn Natt Lyrics

Hanen fall om p tunet

Fr han rakk gala

-Men eg kjende tida



Hesten hang i slitte taumar

Med utakk piska inn i augo

-Men eg
makta  trekke plogen



Bonden la seg til marka

Grdelaus og
ufri

-Men eg rydda nye hov



Vekstane visna, evige lovnadar
brast

Fargane falma, hjarta fraus fast

Styen stilna, men sigeren
var tatt

Strre enn tid, tyngre enn natt!



Fjella fall, og
skogen brann

Tida teia, vatn vart sand 

Sola slokna, men deg hadde
eg att

Strre enn tid, tyngre enn natt!



Lyset tok slutt, og
stjernene slokna ;

Fr fylgjet ndde fram til gards

-Men eg hussa
vegen



Skipa sank med krigar og skald;

I botnlaus avgrunn
lagt til kvile

-Men eg rka nye ukjende strender



Gudane vart
alle brtt gamle

D dei gyldne veggane fall

-Men eg gav dei ny
kraft



[English translation:]



[LARGER THAN TIME,
HEAVIER THAN NIGHT]



The rooster fell dead in the dust

Before
the break of dawn

But I knew time



The horse hung from worn
out straps

With ungreatfulness

Wipped into his eyes

But I
pulled the plow myself



The peasant laid himself down on the
fields

Neither plenty nor free - but I cleared new land



Growths withered, eternal oaths shattered

Colours faded, hearts froze
cold

The noise silenced, but mine was victory and might

Larger than
time - heavier than night



Mountains fell, forestgreen to black

Time turned to silence, water to sand

The sun went cold, gone all but
one light

Larger than time - heavier than night



Days ended,
and the stars died

Before the wanderers reached home

But I knew the
way



Ships sunk with all warriors and heralds

Laid to rest
