Idioma de origen: Islandés

Sjáum yfir rá
Sjóinn skerum frá
Við siglum mastri trú
Seglum þöndum
Við stýrum að í brú

Við siglum í land
Í stórgrýti og sand
Við vöðum í land
Ófremdarástand
Já, anskotann

Feginn fann ég þar
Þökkum ákaflega
Í skjóli neyðarhúss
Og við sváfum
Stórviðri ofsaði út

We are looking over the rudder

Traducido por pias
Idioma de destino: Inglés

Looking over the rudder
Cut off from the sea
We are sailing by the mast
Stretching the Sails
We are heading towards the jetty

We are running aground
Up on the large rocks and the sand
We wade ashore
What a mess
Damn it, yea...

And there I found myself
Endless grateful
Sheltered in a makeshift house
And we slept
As the storm abated

We look over the rudder
Cut off the sea
We sail by the mast
Stretch the sails
We steer towards the bridge

We sail ashore
Up on the large rocks and the sand
We wade ashore
What a mess
Fuckin’ yeah!

There I found myself
Endlessly thanking
Sheltered in a makeshift house
And we slept
As the storm died down


Pia, this is a hard translation and you've done a great work, however there are some differences in meaning for the vocabulary used in each version that we must make clear.
For example: Is it a bridge or a jetty?
sail ashore or running aground?
large rocks or big cliffs?
temporary or makeshift house?

Hello Lilian

brú - bridge
stórgrýti - large rock
siglum í land - sailing to land
neyðarhúss - I don't understand the difference between temporary and makeshift house, isn't both about a temporary accommodation?

I think I missunderstood a lot, the one Bamsa found is better. Can I use it?

Well Pia, I don't know Icelandic, you'll have to decide about the correct words to use. I don't think you misunderstood anything, but there are a few thing that in the other version sound better. Also some words sound better in yours.
The only "corrections" would be:

Some continuous tenses into simple
endless ---> endlessly

Bamsa, could you help us define the vocabulary?

Ok. In my opinion there is "jetty" and not a "bridge", "running aground" and not "sail ashore", "large rocks" because it is about the rocks on a beach over which the people have to step and, finally, I would use "makeshift house" because I believe is more appropiate than temporary.

With other words: the poetry is about a boat that comes ashore looking for shelter against the storm. They step on the land over the rocks on the beach and the walk is difficult. And than they are grateful of finding a temporary shelter in a house.

A little bit difficult to find the right translation when there are lyrics to be translated.

Thank you Bamsa

Now Pia, what do you think? Will you edit anything? I don't even think we'll need a poll for it.

I'm a REAL beginner on Icelandic ...so I trust Ernst a lot, thank you! I'll change to "large rocks" and "makeshift house" Lilian.
