    Song lyrics:
    This is the a-ö [a-z] of Iceland, so try to sing along.
    This is the a-ö [a-z] of Iceland, what could possibly go wrong?
    I start my day with coffee or kaffi [coffee] is what we say I pour a little mjólk [milk] in and feed my horse some hey [hay] I look out the window to see if there is sól [sun]. I eat my morgunmatur [breakfast] and sit down in my stól [chair]. This eyja [island] is kind of awesome no matter what you see, There’s hverir [hot springs], list [art], and jöklar [glaciers] And vinir [friends] you can meet. Skál! [cheers!] So pack your töskur [bags] Iceland has it all. From austur [East] to vestur [West] Just don’t look for elves. You don’t even exist! This is the a-ö [a-z] of Iceland, so try to sing along.
    This is the a-ö [a-z] of Iceland, what could possibly go wrong? Our sundlaugar [swimming pools] are cosy. Afklæðast [undress] all the way. But don’t forget sundskýla [swimming shorts] Before you go and play. You might see a torfbær [turf house] Or hike in the þjóðgarð [national park] And you must say hi to Villi Because that is my dad! Pabbi! [Dad!] And you can rent a bílaleigubíll [rental car] Enjoy the drive on hringvegurinn [the ring road] Be mindful of malarvegir [gravel roads] And don’t traðka [tread] on the moss - It grows back so slow! Like seventy years!
    This is the a-ö [a-z] of Iceland, so try to sing along. This is the a-ö [a-z] of Iceland, what could possibly go wrong? Since the upphaf alda [beginning of time] The sheep has been around. Vinaleg [friendly] and gracious, Every man’s best friend. We cuddle them and klappa [pat them] And then take all their ull [wool]. We wear them like the kappar [champions] And they’ve always kept us… Full!
    This is the a-ö [a-z] of Iceland, so try to sing along. This is the a-ö [a-z] of Iceland, what could possibly go wrong? This is the a-ö [a-z] of Ísland [Iceland] So reyndu að syngja með [try to sing along] This is the a-ö [a-z] of Ísland [Iceland] Now memorise this lag [song] You just sang the hardest karaoke song in the world, you speak Icelandic.
    You can even say Plokkfiskur [Icelandic mashed haddock and potatoes] You’re almost an Icelander, almost, seriously it’s a lot of paperwork. Just come and visit!

    I really appreciate all the beautiful shots of the native horses. The Icelandic horse has been separated from all other horses since 982 AD/CE and is the purest breed in the world. It's my dream to meet one one day, and ride the tölt, as I hear it's one of the smoothest natural gaits in the world.
