    Default Thomas Brøndbo - Det vart en storm

    Hi, I'm looking for the lyrics of "Det vart en storm", by Thomas Brøndbo. You can watch a video here:

    The last part of the chorus is something like:
    No har æ lidd et nytt forlis
    Det vart en storm det æ trudd va en bris

    The song is in Norwegian. I would also appreciate if you could provide an English translation. Thanks!

    I'll give it a try. It's in dialect, so Norwegians from Trøndelag are very welcome to correct my mistakes in the Norwegian part

    Tida står stille som frosse i is,// Time stands still like frozen in ice
    et lite sekund av et tapt paradis.//a small second of a lost paradise
    Som et bilde i svart-hvitt,// like a black and white picture
    som spor i snøen.// like footprints in the snow
    Sånn var øyeblikke,da du sa adjø.// This is how the moment was, when you said goodbye

    Ref.
    Loddet e kasta// The dices have been rolled (lit. the lottery ticket has been thrown away)
    og bruan e brendt.// and the bridges have been burnt
    Du ser æ står alein igjen.// You can see I'm standing alone again
    Æ veit it ka som har hendt. // I don't know what has happend
    Æ va ein gud på livets hav.// I was a God on the ocean of life
    No har æ lidd ett nytt forlis.// now I have suffered yet another shipwreck
    Det vart en storm de æ trudd va en bris.// It became a storm what I thought was a breeze
    Det vart en storm de æ trudd va en bris.// It became a storm what I thought was a breeze

    Du skul ha sagt no.// You should have said something
    De var tid nok til det.// There was time enough for it
    I stedet dro du bærre avsted.// Instead you just left
    Musikken har stoppa.// The music has stopped
    det e tyst og stillt.// it's all silent and quiet
    Sånn va øyeblikket,som æ har forspillt.// This is how the moment that I have spoiled was.


    Ref.

    Min båt va så liten,// My boat/ship was so small
    og have så stort.// and the ocean so big.
    Det kan it gjøres om det som e gjort.// What you've done you can't do again
    Æ angre no,// Now I regret it
    men ka hjelpe de?// But what good does it do?
    Hu vil'it værra me.// She didn't want to come along/ join

    Ref.


    I hope this helps

    I didn't know the song was in a dialect. I found more information about the artist, he is indeed from Trøndelag.
    Thank you for the lyrics and the translation, it does help.
