Dagen Gryr
Sissel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Se,
det gryr av dagen om året går mot høst
i den stille time nå blir lyset født i øst.
En natt
glir bort i uklar drøm om det som var
og et blankt og ubrukt døgn står frem med nye svar.
Dagen gryr - et eventyr
hver gang himmelen i øst tar fyr.

Hør,
en høstlig tone klinger myk og sår
ved et hav som løper stilt mot stranden der jeg står
Min drøm
og lengsel foldes ut mot alt som er
og et svar fra livet selv skal kanskje nå meg her
Dagen gryr - et eventyr
hver gang himmelen i øst tar fyr.

Slik stiger dagen mot meg, den er høy og klar
det dirrer i en streng on blir en sang
Jeg takker for de stille gleder livet har
og holder dem som noe jeg har fått for første gang...

Se,
din enkle rikdom finnes kanskje her
i en høstlig morgenstund med klart og stille vær.
Et hav,
en himmel og et land du kalder ditt,
og hver dag du møter der, har selve livet gitt:




Dagen gryr - et eventyr
hver gang himmelen i øst tar fyr...

Hør, en høstlig tone klinger myk og sår
Listen, a soft and tender autumn melody rings out.


ved et hav som løper stilt mot stranden der jeg står
By a sea that runs quietly towards the shore where I stand.


Min drøm og lengsel foldes ut mot alt som er
My dream and longing unfold towards everything that exists.


og et svar fra livet selv skal kanskje nå meg her.
And an answer from life itself may reach me here.


Slik stiger dagen mot meg, den er høy og klar

Et hav, en himmel og et land du kalder ditt,
A sea, a sky, and a land you call yours,


og hver dag du møter der, har selve livet gitt:
and every day you encounter there, life itself has given:


Dagen gryr - et eventyr hver gang himmelen i øst tar fyr...
The day is dawning, an adventure every time the sky ignites in the east...
