Description

Sjóborgin

Sjóborgin is the name of a Faroese boat that sank on April 2nd, 1998, when Simona had recently been born. “I was two months old at the time, my sister 1 year old and my brother 3 years old. This day meant that I lost my father, grandfather and uncle. Although I was just a newborn, sadness, fear and a group of unanswered questions have always been laying in the background. As the years have passed, I have especially wondered how my mother has managed to give me and my siblings such a good and happy life. All our lives, she has fought for us. She has done this by putting her own needs aside for our benefit. She is the strongest I know and my guide in life through all ages. She has not once complained about her bad fate in front of us. However, I know that there are more thoughts and feelings behind such fate, but I am afraid to ask her about it; for if she breaks down in pieces, I do too.” Simona says.

Words and music: Simona Paula á Fríðriksmørk

Lagnan var hørð
Sum ein stormur uttan náði
Men tú stendur her
Sum ein varði
Ið aldrin fellur 

Tað er tungt at bera
Eina óbodna sorg
Ja, hvussu hevði verði
Um hon ikki
Var komin inn

Hann bíðar eftir tær
Hann bíðar eftir mær

Eg tori ikki at spyrja
hvussu tú hevur tað
tí um tú nú brotnar
ja, so brotni eg við

Borgin á sjónum
sigldi inn í himmalhavn
har hvílir hann seg
og bíðar
eftir okkum

Hann bíðar eftir tær
Hann bíðar eftir mær
