lyrics

Langt fra len og leite, fra vånde, vold og vå
gjennom lauv og liv og evig tid.
Fra djupe natt jeg våkna brått, av hulderhauk og sang;
i taket søkte skyggeheimen grid.
Men som regnet dro til side, så jeg landet stige frem;
med villfugl, tåke og mitt hjem!

Da neste morgen gryna smelta Villjuvjarven grå
og neste morgen rann i hjertets vrå.
I vindvei har jeg vandra, under stjernetunge spor;
Intet står meg fra min ferd, min bror!

Trange kår og lange år kan levre manneblod,
men hjertet kan levere reint som vann.
Stå sammen, mine brødre, under himmel svart som jord.
Vi er ett med storm og vind og regn og land!!!

Tre hundre riff på Lindholm gård i land der intet gror
til vilje, verd og vindsvøpt strand.
I den lange gryning rei vi under elvebro
men ennå brenner våre hav mot land.
