about

Draumalandið
Draumalandið hefur verið inni í mínu lífi frá frumbernsku og mér hefur alltaf fundist það bæði dramatískt og aggressívt í hinum klassíska flutningi. Mig langaði að smækka lagið niður í sína einföldustu mynd og túlka það eins einlægt og mögulegt er.

Dreamland
Life doesn’t get any better than this. Dreamland reveals the relationship between love and nature. Wanting to take your love to a beautiful place where the flowers grow and everything is beautiful. “Oh let me lead you to the Mountain-heaths of the land with the long blissful summers.”

lyrics

Draumalandið
Ó leyf mér þig að leiða,
til landsins fjalla heiða,
með sælu sumrin löng.
Þar angar blómabreiða
Við blíðan fuglasöng.

Þar aðeins yndi fann ég,
þar aðeins við mig kann ég,
þar batt mitt tryggðarband.
Því þar er allt sem ann ég,
þar er mitt draumaland.
