Nordnorsk julesalme - Moddi

Velsegna du dag over fjordan, velsegna du lys over land

Velsegna de evige ordan om håp og ei utstroken hand

Verg dettan likkje du gav oss den dagen du fløtta oss hit

Så vi veit at du aldri vil latt oss forkomme i armod og slit

Vi levde med huva i handa, men hadde så sterk ei tru

Og ett har vi visselig sainna, vi e hårdhausa vi som du

No har vi den hårdaste ria, vi slit med å kave oss fram

Mot lyset og adventstia, det e langt sør tel Betlehem

Guds fred over fjælle og åsen, latt det gro der vi bygge og bor

Guds fred over dyran på båsen og ei frosen og karrig jord

Du ser oss i mørketidslande, du segne me evige ord

Husan og fjælle og vatne og folke som leve her nord

Husan og fjælle og vatne og folke som leve her nord

Bless you day over the fjord, bless you light over land

Bless the eternal words of hope and a outstretched hand

Verg dettan likkje you gave us the day you moved us here

So we know you will never let us down in poverty and toil

We lived with the hood in hand, but had such a strong faith

And we certainly have one, we are hardheaded like you

Now we have the hardest ria, we struggle to dig our way forward

Towards the light and the Advent path, it is far south tel Bethlehem

God's peace over the mountains and the hill, let it grow where we build and live

God's peace over the beast on the stall and a frozen and barren earth

You see us in dark land, you sign me eternal words

Husan and mountains and lakes and peoples who live here north
