Skugge original lyrics: Eismal sat eg ute Ved fot av fjell Ved dagsvinn vitja meg Skugge heitir Eg stirde rakt Skugge, rakt attende I mitt innerste indre I mitt ytterste ytre Båe held blikket Med skriande tagnad eg spurde vegen Men skugge tagde Med skriande tagnad eg spurde meiningi Men Skugge tagde Alt ljos rann Skugge inn i bjarget svann Med hamrande hjarte gol eg mot hjell Med dvergtungetale mol Skugge or fjell Elden tvingar deg or meg Sporlaus inn i notti fér Enn du vakar djupt i meg Vilt du dansar, tveim blir ein Skugge, kan du svara? – Svara Som heile sanning eig! – Eig Når eg fyl, kvi hastar du? – Du Finn eg deg, eg finn meg sjølv – Sjølv Svara eig du sjølv English Lyrics: Alone, I sat outside At the foot of the mountain As the daylight was fading, a visitor came Shadow was the name I stared straight towards Shadow straight in return In my innermost inside At my outermost outside We both held the gaze With howling silence I asked the way Shadow gave no answer With howling silence I asked the way Shadow gave no answer As the sunlight leaves Shadow slips away Into the stonewall As my heart was hammering I croaked at the rock With a dwarven tongue (echoes) Shadow replied The fire force you from within without a trace, slips into darkness Still you slumber deep inside wildly dancing, two becomes one Shadow, give me answers The truth is known to you I feel your haste when I try to find In searching you I find within Answers you find within
