lyrics
We have seen so many things
Around the world, we travelled,
Many things we could teach
You if you'd take time
To look at us carefully.
We have stories to tell,
Premonitions to reveal
But we are just cogs in the wheel,
« Solve et coagula »
Is our serene fate.
We let the wind change our shape,
We know how beautiful
It is when things change,
Our bodys are mirages
They just live in your eyes
But our powers are true.
Oh don't fight against time
But slowly dance with it,
Let your tears flow to earth
Let the wind lead your feet.
We are the architects
Of a realm where the birds
Perpetually relearn
To find their pathways
Into moody mazes.
We are light players
Painting new scapes all day long,
We play to hide and seek
With the moon and the sun,
The stars and the mountains.
Our shadows are shelters,
We carry promises
Of relief to the trees,
To the thirsty weeds and the flowers,
To the frogs and the fields,
To the forests and the grasses
And we have some advice
Oh don't fight against time
But slowly dance with it,
Let your tears flow to earth,
Let the wind lead your feet.
There's definitely something special in music from Iceland... it's always highly creative, usually unusual, and sometimes even plain weird - but in a positive sense. This applies to singer-songwriter Sóley Stefánsdóttir, too. Her songs are quite accessible in a way, but always with a surprising twist that's typical for music from this country in the far North.
