Eivør Pálsdóttir - Green Garden

in my green garden the willow has been weeping
it´s branches hang broken now the sun is sleeping

in my green garden summer left us naked
in the long cold winter the colors have all faded

waiting in hours of darkness
waiting for birds to sing
waiting for the earth’s orbit to bring back spring

wake up sleepy sun, take away my sorrow
it´s time you rise again from the shadows

we are waiting in hours of darkness
waiting for birds to sing
waiting for the earth’s orbit to bring back spring
