Góðan Daginn Lyrics

Ég sendi sólina á þig
Síðla sumardags
Grær hitastig
Og greikkar göngulag
Skín í andlitin hlý
Það er alvöru dag
Burt, burt með þig ský

Já, burtu út á haf
Þar sem sjórinn flæðir
Og saltísinn bræðir

Við spilum endalaust
Burtu nú afklæðum
Sárin opin græðum

Við spilum endalaust
Sólin ????
Kveikir á, sprengir ljósaperur
Leyndar ????
???? baðar geislum hreinum

Ó, góðan daginn
Ég úr þér ríf ísjaka
Og grýlukertin
Og harðfenni
Og hendi út á haf
Þar sem sjórinn flæðir
Og saltísinn bræðir

Við spilum endalaust
Sólin ????
Kveikir á, sprengir ljósaperur
Leyndar ????
???? baðar geislum hreinum

Sólin ????
Kveikir á, sprengir ljósaperur
Leyndar ????
???? baðar geislum hreinum

Góðan Daginn - good day good morning

Love the guitar in this song, one of my favourites on the new album.

The best translation I could find was here: http://lyricwiki.org/Sigur_R%C3%B3s:G%C3%B3%C3%B0an_Daginn Regardless of what he says, it's a beautiful song.

I am surprised there are only 2 comments. In my opinion, this is the best song on the album. When I get imagery of the CD, I see track 1 as like someone being warped to a fanastical dimension and being curious. Track 2 is when he arrives, he is like a Prince, and there is like a large parade for him. Track 3 is after the festival he goes to a fancy ball with all kinds of royalty, and he meets a Princess and talks to her and stuff and it is love at first sight.

I don't know, that may be a little weird, but I guess the good think about Sigur Ros is it can provoke a lot of diverse imagery based on the person, and what they are going through.

Cover art for Góðan Daginn lyrics by Sigur Rós

I send you the sun Late in a summer's day Temperature rises and the walking pace increases Shines on the warm faces It's a real day Go go away cloud

Yes, out to the sea Where the sea flows and salt melts the ice

We play endlessly Now undress away Heal the open wounds

We play endlessly The sun rises up Switches on, blows up light bulbs Hidden sparks (?) Lament, spreads clear rays

Oh, good morning I pull from you icebergs and icicles and frozen snow and throw out to the sea Where the sea flows and salt melts the ice

We play endlessly The sun rises up Switches on, blows up light bulbs Hidden sparks (?) Lament, spreads clear rays

The sun rises up Switches on, blows up light bulbs Hidden sparks (?) Lament, spreads clear rays
