Viđ spilum endalaust
Sigur Rós Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Í gegnum sól og malarryk
Við sáum öll svo margt
Já, heimsins ból og svart malbik
Við spiluðum
(hopelandic)
Við spiluðum
Við spiluðum
Dagur síungur líður
Já, endalausir og birtan
Reykur í augum svíður
Já, rifjast upp og núna man
Við spiluðum
(hopelandic)
Við spiluðum
(hopelandic)
Við spilum út um allt
Við sáum öll svo margt
Mátum allt allt upp á nýtt
Dagur síungur líður
Já, rifjast upp og núna man
Við spiluðum
(hopelandic)
Við spiluðum
(hopelandic)
Við spilum út um allt
(hopelandic)
Við spilum endalaust
Við spilum endalaust saman
Við spilum út um allt saman
Við syngjum öll saman
(hopelandic)
The lyrics of Sigur Rós's song Vid Spilum Endalaust speaks about a journey through life, where the singer is exploring the world and everything within it. The first stanza describes the beauty of the world, driving through the sun and the smoke, admiring the vastness of the universe while acknowledging both the light and the dark of it. The second stanza talks about the passing of time and the memories that come along with it. One day it's here, the next day it's gone, leaving nothing but the smoke in our eyes, but what remains is the remembrance of the experiences that shaped us. The song is all about exploring the world, living life, and never-ending musical sessions - a kind of endless utopia where everyone sings and plays forever.
Overall, the song delivers a universal message that encourages people to explore, live, and create. The lyrics do not follow any particular structure, but the repetition of the phrase "Við spiluðum" (which means "We played" in Icelandic) serves as a musical anchor for the piece. The middle section, in the Hopelandic language, further builds on a theme of endless musical expression, encouraging people to join in the endless jam.

Við keyrðum út um allt
We drove out everywhere
Í gegnum sól og malarryk
Through sun and dust
Við sáum öll svo margt
We saw so much
Já, heimsins ból og svart malbik
Yes, the world's pain and black paint
Við spiluðum
We played
(hopelandic)
No meaning, just vocalizations
Dagur síungur líður
The slow day passes
Já, endalausir og birtan
Yes, endless and bright
Reykur í augum svíður
Smoke stings the eyes
Já, rifjast upp og núna man
Yes, memories come rushing back now
Við spilum út um allt
We play out everything
Við sáum öll svo margt
We saw so much
Mátum allt allt upp á nýtt
Measured everything again
Við spilum endalaust
We play endlessly
Við spilum endalaust saman
We play endlessly together
Við spilum út um allt saman
We play everything together
Við syngjum öll saman
We all sing together
(hopelandic)
No meaning, just vocalizations

[English Translation:]
We drove all around
Through sun and pebbly dust
We all saw so much
Even the cradle and asphalt of the world
We played
[hopelandic]
We played
[hopelandic]
We played
The long day flows
Yes, endless is the over-brightness
Smoke stings the eyes
Yes, it pops up in my head and now I remember it
We played
[hopelandic]
We played
[hopelandic]
We played everywhere
We all saw so much
Yes, saw all and everything in a new light
The long day flows
Yes, it pops up in my head and now I remember it
We played

We played
[hopelandic]
We played everywhere
[hopelandic]
We play endlessly
We play endlessly together
We play everywhere together
We sing all together

I've discovered them only some month ago and I immediately fall in love with them. Unfortunately the concert in Italy is sold out and I got no ticket in time :(
