Part V
Taake (nor) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tankene vandrer tilbake den gang frosten krevde meg
I vestavind & høstregn
Da Nordbo inn I sølvborg steg
Vaakenetter gråstemt
Bak midnattstimens grind
I ringeakt & symmetri
Sydd til sjelen min
Ildebrann på mitt sinn
Formørket av grantrær
Som fra likjord taus har steget Ved en gammel, rolig innsjø
Et sted ei gjestet meget
Jeg ser kun månens ansikt
Arrete, som mitt eget
The lyrics of Taake's "Part V" evoke a haunting sense of nostalgia and isolation. The setting is deep in the heart of Norway, far from the crowds of people. The singer's thoughts drift back to a time when the frost was harsh and unforgiving, and he was alone in the elements. The imagery is stark and almost primal, with references to the wind, rain, and the midnight hour. The presence of the silver fortress is mysterious and symbolic, suggesting a connection to the past or to some kind of higher power.
The next stanza delves deeper into the theme of isolation and darkness. The singer describes himself as being "sewn to my soul" with "disdain and symmetry." The repetition of these words creates a sense of a spiritual or psychological struggle. The lines "sun that grinds my thirst" and "flare-up in my mind" suggest a longing for something that nourishes the soul, a spark of light in the darkness. The final lines, "Darkened by fir trees / that silently rise from the earth," and "At an old, quiet lake / where few guests have visited," evoke a sense of desolation and loneliness, as if the singer is the only one who has ever truly experienced such a place.

Dypt I hjertet av Norge langt på veg fra menneskekveg
Deep in the heart of Norway, far away from the crowds of people
Tankene vandrer tilbake den gang frosten krevde meg
My thoughts wander back to the time when the frost claimed me
I vestavind & høstregn
In the west wind and autumn rain
Da Nordbo inn I sølvborg steg
When the Northmen stepped into the Silver Castle
Vaakenetter gråstemt
Gray-tempered sleepless nights
Bak midnattstimens grind
Behind the gates of midnight hours
I ringeakt & symmetri
In contempt and symmetry
Sydd til sjelen min
Sewn to my soul
Sol som knarrens øge
Sun like the creaking of the ridge
Ildebrann på mitt sinn
Inferno in my mind
Formørket av grantrær
Darkened by spruce trees
Som fra likjord taus har steget
Like they have risen from silent graves
Ved en gammel, rolig innsjø
By an old, calm lake
Et sted ei gjestet meget
A place seldom visited
Jeg ser kun månens ansikt
I only see the face of the moon
Arrete, som mitt eget
Scarred, like my own
