Eivør translates this song’s title to “The Loss” in English. Here is her English translation of the lyrics as well, according to the lyrics sheet that comes with physical copies of this record:
The swell of the sea breathes
My soul moves slowly in the waves
An afterglow burns weakly
An aching loss
...
Andar aldusig
Súgar sál mín
Anir afturskin
Sárur saknur
Bíða, blás í keym
Skjálvtar vón mín
Bjálva kaldan dreym
Stirdur saknur
Alt sum var
Fór við tær
Bíða, blás í keym
Skjálvtar vón mín
Bjálva kaldan dreym
Stirdur saknur
Stirdur saknur
Stirdur saknur
Stirdur saknur
Stirdur saknur
Stirdur Saknur was written by Marjun Syderbo Kjaelnes & Eivør.
Eivør released Stirdur Saknur on Fri Sep 18 2020.
