"Vökuró" lyrics

"Vökuró"

Bærinn minn
Bærinn minn og þinn
Sefur sæll í kyrrð
Fellur mjöll
Hljótt í húmi á jörð
Grasið mitt
Grasið mitt og þitt
Geymir mold til vors

Hjúfrar lind
Leynt við brekkurót
Vakir eins og við
Lífi trútt
Kyrrlátt kalda vermsl
Augum djúps
Utí himinfyrrð
Starir stillt um nótt

Langt í burt
Vakir veröld stór
Grimmum töfrum tryllt
Eirðarlaus
Ottast nótt og dag
Augu þín
Ottalaus og hrein
Brosa við mér björt

Vonin mín
Blessað brosið þitt
Vekur ljóð úr værð
Hvílist jörð
Hljóð í örmum snæs
Liljuhvít
Lokar augum blám
Litla stúlkan mín
