lyrics

Dá lean mun
guđa dálvve duohkin
Dá de lean
dimisin cabmojuvvon
Dá lean mun máŋgga arvvis basson
Dá de lean
ođđasit hervejuvvon

Dá lean mun
guđa dálvve duohkkkin
Dá de lean
vástádusaid almmái
Dá lean mun
in ge stuorat go luotni
Dá de lean
olmmožin sivdniduvvon

Here I am
Standing behind six winters
Yes, this is me
beaten
and made tender
Here I am
washed in many showers of rain
Yes, this is me
clothed in new colors

Here I am
standing behind six winters
Yes, this is me
master of the answers
Here I am
a particle of dust
Yes, this is me
Me
in human form
now

Her er jeg
bakenfor seks vintre
Jeg er den som står her
banket
slått myk
Her er jeg
vasket i mange regn
ja her er jeg
fargelagt på nytt

Her er jeg
bakenfor seks lange vintre
Jeg er den som står her
svarenes herre
her er jeg
på størrelse med et støvkorn
Ja her er jeg
skapt
som
menneske
