Friðþæging Blýþungra Hjartna
Misþyrming Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Undir festingu fjörvana stjarna.
Ellin dregur dauðann á langinn.
Aðframkomið hold
Verður frjóvgandi mold
Fyrir ættliði volaðra ævidaga.
Þeir þrá að sleppa frá eymd sinni
En stjörnurnar reynast of fjarlægar...
Ættliður helgra afglapa, velkist í frelsarans nafni.
Hátt stíga eldar í neðra, uppljómun morugra hvela.
Tár iðrunar falla til fóta, friðþæging blýþungra hjartna.
Fár volaðra lima og anda, skuggsjá hins himneska Herra.
Vonin smýgur þeim úr greipum,
Uppljómun spírals blýþungra hjartna
óslitin hringganga helgispjalla
Um ókomna tíð.
Aðframkomið hold
Verður frjóvgandi mold
Fyrir ættliði volaðra ævidaga.
Eldur, hlána, járn, kal
Og þreifandi myrkur er það
Sem koma skal.
The lyrics to Misþyrming's song Friðþæging blýþungra hjartna, translate to “The Peaceful End of the Bleak-hearted.” The song talks about the concept of hope, of being freed from misery and pain. The first stanza sets the scene of a party under a distant star, where the spirit of dancing prevails. However, the feeling of death lingers, and the body keeps moving forward, becoming fertile soil for the future.
The second stanza references the hopefulness of the holy and speaks of the upsurge of burning flames below the dark sky. Tears of repentance fall from people who want to be freed from their pain. It also speaks of the few souls that have been granted the ability to connect with the divine.
The third stanza talks about the power of hope that frees people from despair, evoking a spiral glow from the heart of the hopeless. It also speaks of the cycle of life and the arrival of tools and darkness that is to come.
In summary, the song talks about the hope for a better tomorrow, for a peaceful end to the pain and misery of the bleak-hearted.

Endless cycles of sacred conversations
Um ókomna tíð.
About times yet to come.
Eldur, hlána, járn, kal
Fire, stones, iron, cold
Og þreifandi myrkur er það
And palpable darkness is what
Sem koma skal.
Will come.
