冰岛音乐领先世界一百年

冰岛，一个世界尽头的小岛。

极光，旷野，冰川，荒原。

寒冷，静谧，孤独，纯净。

有人说：“冰岛昼短夜长，因此他们的音乐都格外抚慰人心。”

深以为是。

<My Head Is An Animal>

<Dirty Paws> Of Monsters And Men

And for a while things were cold,

所有事物都凝滞在冰天雪地中

they were scared down in their holes.

生灵们满怀畏惧缩回洞里

The forest that once was green

曾经这片生气盎然的森林

was colored black by those killing machines.

如今被战火烧成了灰烬

<Suicide Is Painless> Lady & Bird

Through early morning fog I see

透过清晨弥漫的薄雾

Visions of the things to be

我看到了心中浮现过的愿景

The pains that are withheld for me

那些无法表达的痛苦

I realize and I can see

我意识到并能感觉到

The sword of time will pierce our skin

时间如利刃般刺破我的皮肤

It doesn't hurt when it begins

当它开始时你并不会感觉痛苦

But as it works its way on in

它一点点的刺向我的身体，穿过我的胸膛

The pain grows stronger watch it grin

痛苦由此愈演愈烈，伤口绽开向我放肆大笑

A brave man once requested me

曾有位热爱生活的勇者找到我

To answer questions that I keep

让我告诉他那重要的答案

Is it to be or not to be

到底是活着还是死去

And I reply oh why ask me

我不解的答道“为什么要问我呢”

Cause they will run you down

是的 他们会使你声嘶力竭

Down till the dark

直至夜幕深沉

Yes and they will run you down

是的 他们会使你声嘶力竭

Down till you fall

直到你一蹶不振

And they will run you down

是的 他们会使你声嘶力竭

Down till you go

直到你仓皇逃离

Yes, you can't crawl no more

决不能再次匍匐如蝼蚁

And way down we go

我们踏上征程

<I Sing I Swim> Seabear

I miss you even when you're around

尽管陪伴身边，我依然如此思念你

I'm a black cloud

我如乌云一片

Sending lightning to the ground

让阳光穿透射向地面

So darling please show your teeth

亲爱的微笑吧

Just one more dance to help me sleep

再跳一次舞催我入眠

In your boat tied to a tree

乘坐着树扎的小船

I hope you'll find the sea

我希望你遇见大海

Throw me a dream please it's been a dreamless sleep

给我一个梦吧，在这无梦的夜

You've got a diamond under your skin

因那张脸上，你的眼如钻石般明亮

<Green Glass Of Tunnel> Múm

Down from my ceiling

从天花板上

Drips great noise

漏下巨大的嘈杂声

It drips on my head through a hole in the roof

穿过屋顶的洞滴在我的心上

Behind these two hills here

在两座小山的后面

There's a pool

有一个池塘

And when I'm swimming in

每当我在其中潜游

through a tunnel

静静穿过隧道

I shut my eyes

我闭上双眼

Inside their cabin I make sounds

我在车厢里抒发心声

In through the tubes I send this noise

Behind these two hills here

在这两座小山后面

fall asleep

And when I flood in green grass of tunnel

It floods back

它来回漂浮

I shut my eyes

我闭上双眼
