[Tekst: Ivar Bj?rnson]
ANSUZ, ANSUZ!
- Skipet fa fr? kai
Aldri vil ho vende att;
ho er trygg i stjernenatt
WUNJO, WUNJO!
- Reisa har v«rt lang
Han som s?d kjem draumen til;
tek han dit han draume vil
Vidare fr? tanken;
fri fr? kj?d
Ingen svar, ingen sirkel
Evig f?dsel, evig d?d
"...Eg tok og eg fekk
Eg fall, flaug og gjekk
Det vart m?rkt og eg s?g
Djupt ned, kor det tyste r?r..."
Me vandra fritt og langt
Lyset kom, og synet svann
Husa er tomme, og himmelen raud;
Skipet legg fr? kai

[Lyrics: Ivar Bj?rnson]
ANSUZ, ANSUZ!
The ship left for the sea
Never will she return
She is safe in the starry night
WUNJO, WUNJO!
The journey's been long
The dream comes to the sleeping
Brings him where he longs to dream
Further from thought,
free from the flesh
No answers, no circles
eternal birth, eternal death
"...I took and received
I fell, flew and walked
It was dark and I saw
Deep below, where silence roars..."
We wandered far and freely
The light came, and the sight faded
The houses are abandoned, and the sky is red
The ship is leaving for the sea.
[Musikk : Ivar Bj?rnson & R. Kronheim]
