"Oliver" lyrics - BJORK

[Icelandic:]

I Valholl til forna fagran dreng
?eir f?r?u fjotra i
?eir negl?'ann svo hatt a krysukross
Og ?eir kollu?'ann ?r?la ?y

Oliver - k?ri
Oliver - m?ri
Oliver - nu rakna ?in bond
Oliver - ljufi
Oliver - pru?i
Oliver - nu skjalfa oll lond

Enginn mun skilja ?rautir ??r
Er ?ola matti hann
Hann ger?i ?a? fyrir mig og ?ig
Fyrir allan sannleikann

Oliver - k?ri...

Sal ?inn er heimur and'og alfa
Hinn fyrsti og si?asti
Kjarninn i hugum mannanna sjalfra
?u gafst ?eim visindi - oh, oh, oh

Sto?st eins og mattarstolpi stinnur
Sterkur a svellinu
Nu heyrast mun hatt i skyjunum
A helgafellinu

Oliver - ?u f?r? sigurlaun
?u f?r? sigurlaun
?o kold se ?in hond

Oliver - ?u f?r? sigurlaun
?u f?r? sigurlaun
Min elskandi ond - brjottu bondin nu!

Oliver - k?ri...

[English:]

In Valhalla a long time ago a beautiful boy
They put in chains
They nailed him so high upon a cross
And they called him a slave

Oliver - lovely
Oliver - glorious
Oliver - your bonds are untied now
Oliver - pleasant
Oliver - modest
Oliver - all the lands quiver now

No one will understand the trials that
He had to endure
He did it for me and you
For all the truth

Oliver - lovely...

You soul is home to spirit and elves
The first and the last
The essence is in the minds of the men themselves,
You gave them the knowledge - oh, oh, oh

Piled like a rigid stack of power
Strong on the ice
You can hear high in the skies now
About your legend

Oliver - you get your victorious reward
You get your victorious reward
Though your hand is cold

Oliver - you get your victorious reward
You get your victorious reward
My beloved hand - break the ties now!

Oliver - lovely...
