"Álfur Út Úr Hól" lyrics

"Álfur Út Úr Hól"
(originally by The Beatles)

[Icelandic:]

Dag eftir dag
Einsamall á hól
Náunginn undarlegi
Þar sem hannin gól

Enginn vill um hann vita
Og þeir benda hvar kjánnin fer
Han þraukar samt áfram sjálfur

Veizt um álf ut á hól
Hann sér dýrðlega sól
Og hans augu sjá meir
Þau sjá heim, falinn þeim

Bidd'ann um hjálp
Þá kemur han fljótt
Hann sem á þúsund raddir
Hvislar sannleikan hljótt

Enginn vill hlusta á hann
Eða hljóðin í leyndum söng
Hann virðist samt ekki vita

Veizt um álf ut á hól
Hann sér dýrðlega sól
Og hans augu sjá meir
Þau sjá heim, falinn þeim

Enginn vil líta til hans
Í kofanum suður með sjó
Han þraukar samt áfram sjálfur

Veizt um álf ut á hól
Hann sér dýrðlega sól
Og hans augu sjá meir
Þau sjá heim, falinn þeim

Enginn vill hlusta á hann
Og þeir benda hvar kjáninn fer
Han þraukar samt áfram sjálfur

Veizt um álf ut á hól
Hann sér dýrðlega sól
Og hans augu sjá meir
Þau sjá heim, falinn þeim

[English translation:]

[The Fool on the Hill]

Day after day
Alone on a hill
The strange guy
Where the rooster crowed

No one wants to know about him
And they point where he goes
He still holds out alone

Do you know about a fool on a hill
He can see a precious sun
And his eyes see more
They see a world, a hidden world

Ask him for help
He comes quickly
He that has thousand voices
Whisper the truth quickly

No one wants to listen to him
Or the sound in a secret song
Which he doesn't know at all

Do you know about a fool on a hill
He can see a precious sun
And his eyes see more
They see a world, a hidden world

No one wants to see him
In the hut in the south with a lake
He still holds out alone

Do you know about a fool on a hill
He can see a precious sun
And his eyes see more
They see a world, a hidden world

No one wants to listen to him
And they point where he goes
He still holds out alone

Do you know about a fool on a hill
He can see a precious sun
And his eyes see more
They see a world, a hidden world
