about

Jólalagið Rauð Jól fjallar um ástarsorg yfir
jólin og erfiðleikana sem fylgja því. Þó er alltaf ljós í myrkinu og
köld hjörtu hlýna á ný og bræða snjóinn.

Red christmas (christmas without snow) is about heartache around the holidays and the troubles that follow. But there is always a light at the end of the tunnel and cold hearts thaw again and melt away the snow. Translated lyrics below. Enjoy.

Special thanks to Andrés Guðmundsson, Hulda Helgadóttir and Þúfa!

lyrics

Lyrics: Translated to english
I don't go out
when it's cold
and a lot of snow
We used to
go all over the place
when we were a couple

December
is a difficult month
for me
My feet are wet,
Sweaty and tired
and I'm alone

Christmas stress
I'm not well
I said goodbye
to you
But now you are
back again
to my house

No longer cold
Everywhere
Because you and I
We're both here
And the snow
Is gone
Away from me

Red Christmas, red Christmas
no snow
Red Christmas, red Christmas
no snow

The sorrow of love
and to be alone
Is the worst
When it happens
Around Christmas
And the end of the year

Heartache
This year
There were many
No longer sad
I waited a long time
After you

And I fly
On a reindeer
Up in the sky
Christmas is warm

Red Christmas, red Christmas
no snow
Red Christmas, red Christmas
no snow
