Björk Guðmundsdóttir & Tríó Guðmundar Ingólfssonar Lyrics

"Gling-Gló"

Gling gló, klukkan sló
Máninn ofar skyum hló
Lysti upp gamli gótuslód
Thar gladleg Lína stód

Gling gló, klukkan sló
Máninn ofar skyum hló
Leitar Lási var á leid
Til Lína hanns er beid

Unnendum er máninn kær
Umm thau tófraljóma slær
Lási á bidilsbuxum var
Brátt frá Línu fær hann svar

Gling gló, klukkan sló
Máninn ofar skyum hló
Lási vard svo hyr á brá
Thvi Lína sagdi "Já"

Gling gló, klukkan sló
Máninn ofar skyum hló
Lysti upp gamli gótuslód
Thar gladleg Lína stód

Gling gló, klukkan sló
Máninn ofar skyum hló
Leitar Lási var á leid
Til Lína hanns er beid

Unnendum er máninn kær
Umm thau tófraljóma slær
Lási á bidilsbuxum var
Brátt frá Línu fær hann svar

Gling gló, klukkan sló
Máninn ofar skyum hló
Lási vard svo hyr á brá
Thvi Lína sagdi "Já"

Gling gló
Gling gló
Gling gló

[English translation:]

Tic toc, the clock chimed
Moon smiled above the clouds
Lighting the old trail
There Lina gaily stood

Tic toc, the clock chimed
Moon smiled above the clouds
Lasi from Leiti was on his way
To Lina awaiting him

To sweethearts the moon is dear
Around them falls its magic light
Lasi wore his suitor's breeches
Soon from Lina came his reply

Tic toc, the clock chimed
Moon smiled above the clouds
Lasi wore a happy smile
For Lina answered "Yes"

Tic toc, the clock chimed
Moon smiled above the clouds
Lighting the old trail
There Lina gaily stood

Tic toc, the clock chimed
Moon smiled above the clouds
Lasi from Leiti was on his way
To Lina awaiting him

To sweethearts the moon is dear
Around them falls its magic light
Lasi wore his suitor's breeches
Soon from Lina came his reply

Tic toc, the clock chimed
Moon smiled above the clouds
Lasi wore a happy smile
For Lina answered "Yes"

Tic toc
Tic toc
Tic toc
