Morgen Sola, Kveld Måne (Morning Sun, Evening Moon)

Jeg spiser brød fra morgenen sola.

Jeg drikke vannet fra kvelden måne.

Ilden har spist hjertet

Brant det ned.

Jeg ser mannen, jeg hører kvinnen.

Ilden brenner dem - du ser kjærlighetene deres, hører haten deres?

Ild fra tusen soler. Vann fra tusen måner.

Morgen og kveld, ild og vann. De brenne og de drukne.

Unnskyld, jeg snakker ikke norsk. Jeg snakker engelske og jeg er Amerikansk.

I eat bread from the morning sun.

I drink water from the evening moon.

The fire has eaten the heart

Burned it down.

I see the man, I hear the woman.

The fire burns them - you see their love, hear their hate?

Fire from a thousand suns. Water from a thousand moons.

Morning and evening, fire and water. They burn and they drown.

Sorry, I don’t speak Norwegian (at least, not well enough to actually speak it or write even in Bokmål). I speak English and I’m from America.

If anyone would like to correct me or help me learn Norwegian, I’d be quite grateful.
