lyrics

Skín sem bjartur silfurhringur
Skín þér ljúfi ljósvíkingur
Mánans öldublik á móðu
Mjúk og lygn í draumi hljóðum
Í draumsins ljóðum.

Með þér skal til morguns dvelja
Með þér himins stjörnur telja.
Gæta þín í blundi blíðum
Barnið mitt með hljóðum þýðum,
Á anda hlýði.

Undir stjörnum bátur bíður
Undan ströndu blítt hann líður
Horfin sorg í huldum straumi
Hlýnar sál í gullnum draumi
Gullofnum draumi
