I'm still REALLY new to this language, so if there's one that's too hard for me (Aldrei Gleyma Því was one of those ;_; ) I won't be able to do it.

But I will try. I'm curious about Lifið, so I´ll try to do that next (right now I'm in the middle of Íþrótaálfurinn from Áfram, though). But I'm still kind of limited by when people who know a good amount of Icelandic can check it to make sure I did it right. ^^; That adds a bit of time, unfortunately.

What's the problem with these translators anyway :?

I'd actually have to say that for Icelandic, Google translator is the only halfway decent one that I've used. All the others are just bad.

Do Lífið er svo létt next
Words are similiar to: Life is so light, but light can be easy, simple too. Could be life is so easy if that sounds better.

I actually translated this before... but now I can't find it. ._.

Hehe nice. I am always amused as to how literally they translate, and how silly they sound because of it.

I've actually 'finished' translating 10 more

YAY!

Yeah that's great. Maybe you can add the translated lyrics in the description because it's not possible to copy/paste the youtube ones. Or you can put them here. Please do more

I'll put them here for now. :) Or I could make up a really quick site with them so that I can make a table with the line and the translated lyric across from it if that'd be easier, since I do plan to do more (I've actually 'finished' translating 10 more, but I'm waiting for a few people to verify that I didn't totally screw it up before I put it on the video). *ponders*

Solla Stirða is my name
Clumsy and awkward
Solla Stirða here I come
limping with my legs made of lead

I want so much to become lithe
To go and play and do splits.
?
I´m not able to run around
With the children
Nor walk upstairs because my joints lock

(spoken) ?See, I am only stiff.

?But I want so much to become lithe.
?To go and play and do splits.

(Spoken)But I´m just not able to.
?
Solla Stirða is my name
Clumsy and awkward?
Yet I´m still not able to tie my shoes myself.
?I want to make myself so lithe.

This is a wonderful thing! I can't wait to see the rest!

Not sure if this belongs here- someone can delete it if it doesn´t. Anyways, I´ve been trying to translate the old Icelandic plays for practice, and so english speakers can understand it, and here´s what I came up with for the song "Solla Stirða" from Áfram Latibær. You should recognize the tune ;)

(I added youtube notes because I noticed that the words came out really fuzzy. I think they're mostly legible, but I didn't want to risk it. -_- stupid iMovie exporting)

You may link to them, if you wish. I really don't want them reposted elsewhere. They won't ever be deleted, so there's no worry of links going bad.
