Klare tanker i iskaldt vann

from Flukt fra menneskeligheten by Skarntyde

/

lyrics

Jeg følger bekken ned til dalen
inn i tåkens bølger.

Bakken er dynket av regn,
steinene er glatte, nedstigningen bratt,
Bekken stiger opp og blir større
matet fra kildene ved siden.

Vannet er min vei,
strømmen blir raskere og rasende
og plutselig faller den nedover,
inn i dypet.
Kulpen i fossens bunn,
tordnende, hvitskummende.
Jeg klatrer ned
og tar et bad.

Kulden brenner i brystkassen min,
tankene mine blir klare.
Alt flyter tilbake,
alt flyter hjem.

English translation:

(Clear thoughts in ice-cold water)

I follow the stream down into the valley,
into the waves of mist.

The ground is soaked with rain water,
the stones are slippery, the descent is steep,
the stream swells and grows larger,
fed by the springs on the sides.

The water is my path,
The stream becomes faster and faster,
and abruptly it plunges
into the depths.
The pool at the foot of the waterfall,
thundering, foaming white.
I climb down
and take a bath.

The cold burns in my chest,
my thoughts become clear.
Everything flows back,
everything flows home.
