I Skyggen - Vamp

I skyggen av meg sjøl du står

bak glittergrønne mil.

Långt borte mellom alle år

med solgull i ditt smil.

Deg har eg aldri sitt, men leita har eg vidt.

Eg vett’kje kor du går og står,

eg tenke pådeg titt.

For du e den eine i alle

og bakanfor alt såe sikkert og visst.

Eg vett at du står borti skyggen ein plass

inni meg.

Og du takke for sist.

I fjerne ungdomsdagar drog

du stiar gjønåmeg,

kor lyngen lyste rødt ålo

ein glae sang om deg.

Eg song an titt,

og såg såvidt

småavtrykk itte dine skritt.

For du e den eine i alle

og bakanfor alt såe sikkert og visst.

Eg vett at du står borti skyggen ein plass

inni meg.

Og du takke for sist.

In the shadow of myself you stand

behind glittering green miles.

Far away between all the years

with sun gold in your smile.

I have never found you, but I have been looking for you.

I don't know where you walk and stand,

I'm thinking about you.

Because you are the one in all

and behind everything so sure and certain.

I know you are standing in the shadows somewhere

inside me.

And you thanks for last.

In distant youth days drog

you walk lightly,

where the heather glowed red

a happy song about you.

I sang a little,

and just saw

small footprints in your steps.

Because you are the one in all

and behind everything so sure and certain.

I know you are standing in the shadows somewhere

inside me.

And you thanks for last.
