i have lived as an exchange student in Iceland for a year. It was rather a life than a year. I have never been so homesick as I am for Iceland, and Hallormsstaður. It had been six years since I have been there, but since, every night I dream about being there, being with my Icelandic host family, with the friends i made there. My partner even caught me talking in Icelandic while I slept the other night. I cant spend a day without feeling that longing to be back already. If not at night, then it peaks at the morning. I wish i could just go back.

I feel you. I've benne there for a bit more than 2 years. I moved back home 11 years ago. Ön the flight back home I was crying like a little kid, and ever since I feel homesick... 😢
Sera vakurt lag!! Bestu heilsur úr Føroyum!
I heard it on the Polish radio last week, I'm so happy to find it here and listen to this beautiful song!
Ignore me just posting lyrics for myself: Ég kom í þorpið kvöld eitt um sumar Klukkan tólf í miðnætursól, ég fékk herbergi upp á verbúð, það virtist í lagi Með vask, borði og stól. Um morguninn gekk ég út á götuna að skoða, Sá gömul vélhræ liggja útá lóð, ég sá hús sem áttu sögu og sum voru að deyja, það seytlaði ú gluggunum blóð. Það er stelpa sem starir á hafið Stjörf með augun mött Hún stendur öll kvöld og starir á hafið Stóreyg, dáldið fött. Ég sá hana dansa með döpur græn augu, Dansa líkt og hún væri ekki hér, Hún virtist líða um í sínum lokaða heimi, Læstum fyrir þér og mér. Hver hún var vissi ég ekki en alla ég spurði Sem áttu leið þar hjá þar til mér var sagt að einn svartan vetur Hefði sjórinn tekið manninn henni frá. Þetta er stelpan sem starir á hafið Stjörf með augun mött Hún stendur öll kvöld og starir á hafið Stóreyg, dáldið fött. Þessi starandi augu, haustgræn sem hafið, ég horfði ofan í djúpið eitt kvöld, þau spegluðu eitthvað sem aðeins hafið skildi Angurvær, tælandi og köld. Uppi á hamrinum stóð hún og starði yfir fjörðinn Stundum kraup hún hvönninni í, þar teygaði hún vindinn og villt augun grétu Meðan vonin hvarf henni á ný. Þetta er stelpan sem starir á hafið Stjörf með augun mött Hún stendur öll kvöld og starir á hafið Stóreyg, dáldið fött. Þetta sumar var fallegt, ég fékk nóg að vinna, það fiskaðist og tíðin var góð. En ég stóð og hugsaði og starði út um glugga Um stelpuna sem var talin óð. Eina nótt hrökk ég upp í skelfingu og skildi Hvað skreið um í hjarta mér. Það sem virtist vera í fyrstu bara forvitni hjartans Hafði fundið ástina hér. Í stelpunni sem starir á hafið Stjörf með augun mött Hún stendur öll kvöld og starir á hafið Stóreyg, dáldið fött. Daginn eftir fór ég með fyrsta bílnum Sem flutti mig suður á leið. Ég leit aldrei til baka, ég bölvaði í hljóði Og í brjóstinu var eitthvað sem sveið. Er ég les það í blaði að bátur hafi farist þá birtist mynd í huga mér þar sem hún stendur og starir á hafið Starir þar til birtu þver. Ég man stelpuna sem starði á hafið Stjörf með augun mött Hún stendur öll kvöld og starir á hafið Stóreyg, dáldið fött.

Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏
Getum verið stolt af Heru. Þvílíkur performer
It's not a tattoo, just a drawing that has some personal meaning to her and if you have followed her you will have seen it evolve as she has through the year. It is a celebration of her Celtic heritage as well as the native people of her adoptive homeland New Zealand.
Really beautiful song. My native language is Spanish and although I don't understand the lyrics, it transmits something indescribable to me. I wish someday to visit Iceland, my favorite country in the world. Greetings from Ecuador 🇪🇨, South America ❤️

The girl who stares at the ocean. I came to the village one night in the sommer twelve o'clock in midnight-sun . I got a room in a fiskcamp, it seemed okay with sink, table and chair. In the morning I went out on the street to see The old machine ling on the ground . I saw a house that had a history and some were dying it sifted from the windows blood. There is a girl staring at the ocean Paralyzed with eyes cloudy. .She stands all night staring at the ocean wide eyes, a bit swayback. I saw her dancing with sad green eyes dance like she was not here. She seemed to drift around, in her closed world locked to me and you. Who she was, I did not know but everyone I asked who walked past. Until I was told that one black winter the sea had taken her man away from her. There is a girl staring at the ocean Paralyzed with eyes cloudy. .She stands all night staring at the ocean wide eyes, a bit swayback. These staring eyes, autumn green as the sea I watched the depths one evening. They reflected something that only the sea understood sadly, seductive and cold. Up in the hammer she stood and stared across the fjord sometimes she knee down in the angelica. There she stretched out the wind and her wild eyes cry while hope disappeared again. This summer was beautiful, I got enough work It fished and the times were good. But I stood and thought and stared out the window about the girl who was thought to be crazy. One night I jumped op into horror and understood what was crawling in my heart. What seemed to be at first only the curiosity of the heart had found love here. There is a girl staring at the ocean Paralyzed with eyes cloudy. .She stands all night staring at the ocean wide eyes, a bit swayback. The next day I left the first car which moved me south on my way. I never looked back, I cursed in silence and in the breast there was something burning. when I read it in a news that a boat has been lost hen an image appears in my mind. As she stands and stares at the ocean staring until the light is gone. There is a girl staring at the ocean Paralyzed with eyes cloudy. .She stands all night staring at the ocean wide eyes, a bit swayback.
I found a piano version on Spotify, I shared it with friends who love this song and found this video. Wonderful stuff.
such a beutiful voice and melody.
So moving. So beautiful...
its called "Stúlkan sem starði á hafið" which means "The girl that stared at the ocean" Its about a guy, the singer, (who's male, this is a tribute) coming to a small village to work and sees a girl who stares at the ocean.
I'v got no idea what she sings about, but the melody and her voice are in a beautiful harmony Love the tattoo, too ;)
Frábær rödd, snilldar tónlistarkona, fullkominn texti og þú átt meira recognition skiliđ elsku Hera
I am in love with her as much as i am wit Iceland!!! Eg elska Hera og Island;)
det stämmer precis, tack så mycket för svaret.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND A WORD - BUT I LOVE IT. WHAT A WONDERFUL VOICE - LIKE A BARD OF OLD
Ég er ástfangin af þessu koveri. Ég vil að þetta sé spilað endalaust í jarðaförinni minni. Og í brúðkaupinu mínu. Og alltaf þegar ég á afmæli. Kannski er þetta dálítið skrítið en eitthvað í sálinni minni tengist svo mikið við hinsegin tónana í þessari útgáfu. Það bætir ennþá fleiri tilfinningum í lag sem er nú þegar svo yfirfullt af þeim og ég elska það svo, svo mikið.En nú skal ég þaga. Þ:

Rohan90197 Ég kom í þorpið kvöld eitt um sumar klukkan tólf í miðnætursól Ég fékk herbergi upp á verbúð, það virtist í lagi með vask, borði og stól. I came to the town one evening in summer, 12 midnight in the midnight sun, I took a room in a fisherman's hut, it seemed okay with sink, table and chair Um morguninn gekk ég út á götuna að skoða sá gömul vélhræ liggja út á lóð. Ég sá hús sem áttu sögu og sum voru að deyja það seytlaði úr gluggunum blóð. About morning I got out to the road to see one old wreck laying out on the yard. I saw a house which had stories about some that died, The windows trickled with blood. Refrain: (Það er stelpa sem starir á hafið stjörf með augun mött. Hún stendur öll kvöld og starir á hafið stóreyg, dálítið fött. There is a girl who stares at the sea, Rigid, with gleaming eyes, She stands all evening and stares at the sea, Her bulging eyes, protruding eyes.) Ég sá hana dansa með döpur græn augu dansa líkt og hún væri ekki hér. Hún virtist líða um í sínum lokaða heimi læstum fyrir mér og þér. I saw her dancing with sad green eyes, Dancing like she wasn't here See seemed to float about in her closed up world, locked from me and you Hver hún var vissi ég ekki en alla ég spurði sem áttu leið þar hjá. Þar til mér var sagt að einn svartan vetur hefði sjórinn tekið manninn henni frá. I was not sure who she was, despite asking everyone who was passing by They told me that (with) one black wind the sea had taken her man from her (Refrain) Þessi starandi augu, haustgræn sem hafið ég horfði ofan í djúpið eitt kvöld. Þau spegluðu eitthvað sem aðeins hafið skildi angurvært, tælandi og köld. These staring eyes, authumn-green like the sea, I watched down in the depth one evening, They reflect something that only the sea understood sad, untrue and cold Uppi á hamrinum stóð hún og starði yfir fjörðinn stundum kraup hún hvönninni í. Þar teygaði hún vindinn og villt augun grétu meðan vonin hvarf henni á ný. Up on a cliff she stood and stared over the bay sometimes she kneeled among the Angelica, There she gulped the wind and lost eyes in tears, while her hopes disappeared again Þetta sumar var fallegt, ég fékk nóg að vinna það fiskaðist og tíðin var góð. En ég stóð og hugsaði og starði út um glugga um stelpuna sem var talin óð. This summer was beautiful, I took enough from work, The fishing and weather was good. But I stood thinking and staring out the window at the woman who was believe to be mad Eina nótt hrökk ég upp í skelfingu og skildi hvað skreið um í hjarta mér. Það sem virtist í fyrstu bara forvitni hjartans hafði fundið ástina hér. One night I jumped up in terror and understood what crawled about in my heart.

Þar sem hún stendur og starir á hafið starir þar til birtu þver. I am reading it in the paper that a boat has gone Then an picture came to mind, Where she stood and stared at the sea Staring till break of dawn
Gracias por tu canción.
Hera is one of the best! Afram, Iceland!))
Yeah, me too. I love this song.
It is Icelandic, I come from there and I love this song! I think she does it better than Bubbi who did this song first.
That summer was beautiful, I got enough work, the fishing and weather was good, and I stood and thought, and watched out the window, at the girl that they talked about. One night I awoke, with shivers and clearity of what crawed into my heart. what brightened first, was a curious heart, I found love here with the girl that stares at the sea, works her powerful eyes She stands all night, and stares at the sea Big innocent silence
This is absolutely amazing. I've never heard of her before. Icelandic is such a beautiful language. It's sad how us Swedes has "ruined" our language.
Beautiful!!

That's true. I got an Icelander friend and she told me tha tshe doesn't likes reading Old Norse because she finds it weird and the sentences confusing. Bless frá Mexio!
Thats the girl that stares at the sea, works her powerful eyes She stands all night, and stares at the sea Big innocent silence These staring eyes, autumn green as the sea, watched on to the deep one night. They mirrored something that once was understood. Up on the cliffs she stood and stared into the fjord, sometimes creeped the woman inside. It's a type of wind, and wild eyes crindge, with hope that she'd dissapear within.
Ég fer allt af tár í auga þegar ég heyrir þetta lag

Ah, someone with a sense of humor
Icelandic is a beautiful language, as a Swede (and part Dane) I can make out a few words as Hera sings but I did look up the lyrics as well (in Icelandic) and could understand a lot more by just reading through it. Best regards from a mongrel ;-).
Here is the translation I arrived in the village, on a summer evening, Twellve-o-clock in the midnight sun. I got a deal on a room, that must be OK, with a sink, table and chairs. In the morning I walked, to the streets, an saw an old machine laying out on the ground, saw some houses for sale, some that were dying, and something in the window that glowed.
They next day I left with the next car south, I never looked back, I cursed under my breath. But in my chest was something that hurt Of the boat that was lost, and vision came to my thoughts why she stands, and stares to the sea. Stares to a brighter ?? Thats the girl that stares at the sea, works her powerful eyes She stands all night, and stares at the sea Big innocent silence

@taxi911 Faeroese is allmost like icelandic - alltho the closer to thorshavn you go the more danish there is spoken, Danish is similar but it's changing so fast, not the same danish there was even 200 years ago - its changing very fast. Icelandic has been kept similar since the start. I can kinda understand Faeroese but the closer they live to Thorshavn the more danish they speak, I'm Icelandic and they can understand me aswell.
people that is from Iceland can still read icelandic that is over 1000 yers old.. and we still younder stand most peopel from most people from sweden denmark feyrijar sweden denmark norwgen and same for them it is called Scandinavian
Thats the girl that stares at the sea, works her powerful eyes She stands all night, and stares at the sea Big innocent silence I saw her dancing, with dark green eyes, danced as if I wasnt here She wanted to be, seemed to lock off the world, locked from you and me. who was she, I didnt know. and everyone I asked who was around, the reason was one black winters storm, the ocean took her man away
dette er originalt ein sang av bubbi morthens.ein stor lokal sanger fra island.og han synger om ei jente som mistet mannen sin til sjøen.og når han synger om fyrsta bilnum så meiner han buss.det går ingen ferger på island.

I love it when people are insulting and negative, and then when they tick people off, they say, "I'm entitled to my opinion!" Guess what? So is EVERYONE ELSE, and their opinion is that you suck. That's how freedom of speech works. You have the freedom to be an ass, but everyone else has the freedom to tell you that you're an ass.

swedish is close to icelandic. not the other way around :) Icelandic = basicly the language spoken in norway at 1200(since then, the norwegians have ruined it) and that goes back to around 700, then swedes and norwegians spoke the same language. So icelandic is as pure a nordic language as you can get. Ergo : its Icelandic which is the model. and swedish the mongrel :P
ýkt gott lag :O
@lolcat23 Swedish and icelandic is not the same...
Are you not Icelandic? There are many errors...
