God save our gracious Queen!
Long live our noble Queen!
God save the Queen!

ICELAND .... Lofsöngur

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

O God of Our land,
Our land is God,
We worship thy holy name, thy holy name
From the solar systems of the heavens
bind for you a wreath,
Your warriors the assembly of the ages
For there is one day as a thousand years,
and a thousand years is a day and no more.
One small flower of eternity with a quivering tear,
that prays to it's god and dies
Iceland's thousand years, Iceland's thousand years
One small flower of eternity with a quivering tear,
that prays to it's god and dies


ANTHEM LYRICS IN OFFICIAL LANGUAGE

Lofsöngur (þjóðsöngurinn)
Ó, guð vors lands! Ó, land vors guðs,
vér lofum þitt heilaga, heilaga nafn.
úr sólkerfum himnanna hnýta þér krans
þínir herskarar, tímanna safn.
Fyrir þér er einn dagur sem þúsund ár
og þúsund ár dagur, ei meir:
eitt eil¡fðar smáblóm með titrandi tár,
sem tilbiður guð sinn og deyr.
Íslands þúsund ár,
eitt eil¡fðar smáblóm með titrandi tár
