Baenin

Drengurrin litli hann krypur a kned
Krossleggur hendurnar svo gud fai sed
Uss - hljott - hvad?
Drengurrin litli sem baenir fer med

Godi gud fardu ei mommu fra
Hun hattar mig og badar og er mer hja
Svo klaedir hum mig i nattfot hly
Gud blessi pabba eg gleymdi pvi

Pegar hugsa eg um pad sem gerdist i dag
Kemur upp i huga mer litid lag
Eg ma ei haetta baenina vid
Fyrirgefdu gud eg vel pig bid

Nattfotin min eru hettu med
I hettunni hofudid vel eg fel
Hun augu min hylur og ennid med
Enginn veit ad eg par er

Takka Ter gud fyrir Godan dag
Gleymdi eg einhverju, hvad var TaD
Eg bad fyrir pabba og hugsaDi um Tig
Ja nu man eg, GuD blessi mig

Drengurrin litli hann saevur nu gott
Dagurrin lidin, kommen er nott
Uss - hljott - hvad?
Drengurrin litli sem baenir fer med

The Prayer

The little boy is sitting on his knees
Crosses his hands so God can see
Hush-quiet-what?
The little boy who saves his prayers

Good God don't go away from mama
She washes me and puts me to bed and stays with me
Then she dresses me in warm pyjamas
God bless papa I forgotten it

When I think of what happened today
A little song comes to mind
I may not quit my prayer
Forgive me God, I ask you kindly

My pyjamas got a hood
In my cap I hide my head
She covers my eyes and my forehead too
Nobody knows I'm there

Thank you God for a good day
Did I forget something, what was it
I prayed for daddy and thought of you
Yes now I remember, God bless me

The little boy sleeps well
The day is over , the night has come
Hush-quiet-what?
The little boy who saves his prayers
