Einar
I'll....I'll teach you little angles
I'll take you faraway but
I'll teach them how to use the harmonica
Something, I mean I'll just do something like....
Einar
My punctuality is well known
When the revolution takes place
I'll be late and I'll be shot
As a traitor
Björk : Oh, sun rises
Einar
When the sun rises I will not see
I regret nothing, it was worth it
Going through live without a timepiece
Did pay off
Björk : Sun rises, I will not see (sun)
Einar
My reward to be free and alone
Leaven now at the pillar, blindfold at sunrise
Hearing the drums of Catalan
Beating my time away
Björk : The sun rises, I will not, I will not see
Einar
My heartbeat keeps time with the drums
But soon my only pulse will fade away
Björk : Sun rises, I will not see
Einar
I smile just knowing when the sun rises
Björk : (the sun rises....)
Einar
I will not see
