Jonsi-Sticks and Stones

Cute movie, cute song. ^^ I'm also so intrigued by the fact that two of the verses are in Icelandic. Since I was little I've always been intrigued by Scandinavia (surprise! I bet you thought this girl was only concerned about East Asia! :P)

Anyway, here's the lyrics-

Eyes open wide, blinded by the sun now
Orange and white, dark red, green and yellow
Rainbow colors! Do not hide, see the view!
Step aside, go through!

Against the light, too strong, blow a fuse now
Everything bright, new songs, burning shoes
The look in your eyes! Break our bones into half!
Scream and shout and do laugh!

Let yourself... go (Oh Oh Oh)
Let yourself... go (Oh Oh Oh)

Stay close to me
Count one, two and three
Up in through your sleeve
Busting through the seam
Open your eyes and see - You'll see

Inn um ermar, upp hryggjarsúluna
Yfir skóg, flæðir niður brekkuna
Allt upp í loft! Ég mun aldrei gleyma!
Því ég mun aldrei!




(Into the sleeve, up the spine column
Over the forest, flowing down the slope
Up in the air! I will never forget!
Because I will not!)

Hleypur um, rífur, leysir flækjurnar
(Upp með rótum) Með blik í augum!
Stórmerki, undur, brjótum bein í sundur!


(Run about, scratches, loosens up tangles
(up by its roots) With a twinkle in the eye!
Wonders, miracles, breaking bones in pieces!)

Let yourself... go (Oh Oh Oh)
Let yourself... go (Oh Oh Oh)

Stay close to me
Count one, two and three
Up in through your sleeve
Busting through the seam
Open your eyes and see

Stay close to me
Count one, two and three
Up in through your sleeve
Right beyond the trees
Show you how you'll be

Stay close to me
Count one, two and three
Up in through your sleeve
Busting through the seam
Open your eyes and see - You'll see

Stay close to me : Count one, two, three
Up in your sleeve : You're right behind me
Stay close to me : Count one, two, three
Up in your sleeve : Burst through the seam

Open your eyes and see
You'll see (You'll see...)
