Bí bí og blaka

Lyrics - Icelandic

(Icelandic folk tune, Lyrics by Sveinbjörn Egilsson, 1791-1852)

Bí, bí og blaka,
álftirnar kvaka,
ég læt sem ég sofi,
en samt mun ég vaka.
Bíum bíum bamba,
börnin litlu ramba
fram um fjalla kamba
að leita sér lamba.

English Translation - A bee and a bee flutters

A bee and a bee flutters
Quarrels,
I let asleep sleep,
Yet I will watch.
We have a bamboo,
The kids little ram
Along the mountainside
To look for lambs. (source) (source)
