    One of the most beautiful songs ever written and preformed IMHO Just a banquet for the ears.

    The Icelandic part of the song is missing and goes like this:
    life's a necklace of fears
    your uncried tears on a string
    our love will untie them, come here--
    loving me is the easiest thing.

    (Spanish translation)
    (Bachelorette: Soltera)
    Yo soy una fuente de sangre
    en forma de niña,
    tú eres el pájaro en el borde
    hipnotizado por el remolino.
    Bébeme, hazme sentir real,
    moja tu pico en la corriente;
    el juego que jugamos es la vida;
    el amor es un sueño de dos direcciones.
    Déjame ahora, vuelve esta noche;
    la marea te mostrará el camino;
    si olvidas mi nombre, andarás por mal sitio,
    como una ballena asesina varada en la bahía.
    Yo soy una senda de ascuas
    ardiendo bajo tus pies,
    tú eres quien me camina,
    yo soy tu calle sin retorno.
    Yo soy un susurro en el agua
    para que oigas en secreto,
    tú eres el que se aleja
    cuando te llamo a mi lado.
    Déjame ahora, vuelve esta noche;
    la marea te mostrará el camino;
    si olvidas mi nombre, andarás por mal sitio,
    como una ballena asesina varada en la bahía.
    Yo soy un árbol del que brotan corazones,
    uno por cada uno que tú tomas;
    tú eres la mano del intruso;
    yo soy la rama que rompes.
    (this is a true piece of poetry, no matter the language in wich it's written... just get carried away by its beauty, I hope it's easier to understand now my fellow spanish speakers... enjoy!)

    [Verse 1]
    I'm a fountain of blood
    In the shape of a girl
    You're the bird on the brim
    Hypnotised by the whirl
    Drink me, make me feel real
    Wet your beak in the stream
    Game we're playing is life
    Love's a two way dream
    [Chorus]
    Leave me now, return tonight
    Tide will show you the way
    If you forget my name
    You will go astray
    Like a killer whale
    Trapped in a bay
    [Verse 2]
    I'm a path of cinders
    Burning under your feet
    You're the one who walks me
    I'm your one-way street
    I'm a whisper in the water
    Secret for you to hear
    You're the one who grows distant
    When I beckon you near
    [Chorus]
    Leave me now, return tonight
    Tide will show you the way
    If you forget my name
    You will go astray
    Like a killer whale
    Trapped in a bay
    [Verse 3]
    I'm a tree that grows hearts
    One for each that you take
    You're the intruder's hand
    I'm the branch that you break
    [outro in Icelandic]
    "life's a necklace of fears
    your uncried tears on a string
    our love will untie them, come here-
    loving me is the easiest thing."

    my favorite song on the album and possibly my favorite Bjork song. my G-d it just rips you apart from the inside out. This is Bjork, and this is why we love her. The passion. Just delicious on so many levels, some of them painful, but still delicious. Not sorry. Thanks for posting!

    This is definitely one of Bjork's most beautiful songs. I heard a cover of it many years ago by a singer that sounded like Maynard James Keenan from Tool. It was an incredible cover. But i can't find it anywhere. It sort of haunts me. Just like the original version always will.

    I'm not sure which is the exact term, but it'd be a kind of Scat Singing. In fact, she doesn't say anything at all, she just improvised some sounds that don't mean anything. Björk uses that all the time :)

    This song used to creep me out as a kid, but my sister had it on a mix tape, which I copied on one of my own (I think, can't really remember). Did anyone know that she's actually schizophrenic? I didn't. Makes her music all the more amazing! Another of her songs, "Hunter" was also on the soundtrack for "The X-Files" movie in '98. Don't think anyone remembers that, though.
