Ó, guð vors lands! Ó, lands vors guð!

O, God of our land! O, God of our land!

Vér lofum þitt heilaga, heilaga nafn!

We praise your holy, holy name!

Úr sólkerfum himnanna hnýta þér krans

From the solar systems of the heavens your wreath is entwined

Þínir herskarar, tímanna safn.

By your hosts, the gathering of ages.

Fyrir þér er einn dagur sem þúsund ár

Before you one day is as a thousand years

og þúsund ár dagur, ei meir:

and a thousand years one day, no more:

eitt eilífðar smáblóm með titrandi tár,

a tiny flower of eternity with trembling tears,

sem tilbiður guð sinn og deyr.

that worships its God and dies.

Íslands þúsund ár,

Iceland's thousand years,

Íslands þúsund ár,

Iceland's thousand years,

eitt eilífðar smáblóm með titrandi tár,

a tiny flower of eternity with trembling tears,

sem tilbiður guð sinn og deyr.

that worships its God and dies.

Ó, guð, ó, guð! Vér föllum fram

O, God, O, God! We fall down

og fórnum þér brennandi, brennandi sál,

and offer you burning, burning souls,

guð faðir, vor drottinn frá kyni til kyns,

God the Father, our Lord from generation to generation,

og vér kvökum vort helgasta mál.

and we utter our holiest tongue.

Vér kvökum og þökkum í þúsund ár,

We utter and give thanks for a thousand years,

Því þú ert vort einasta skjól.

For you are our only shelter.

Vér kvökum og þökkum með titrandi tár,

We utter and give thanks with trembling tears,

Því þú tilbjóst vort forlagahjól.

For you have worshiped our wheel of fate.

Íslands þúsund ár

Iceland's thousand years

Íslands þúsund ár

Iceland's thousand years

voru morgunsins húmköldu, hrynjandi tár,

were the dawn's dim-cold, falling tears,

sem hitna við skínandi sól.

that grow warm in the shining sun.

Ó, guð vors lands! Ó, lands vors guð!

O, God of our land! O, God of our land!

Vér lifum sem blaktandi, blaktandi strá.

We live like wavering, wavering grass.

Vér deyjum, ef þú ert ei ljós það og líf,

We die if you are not that light and life,

sem að lyftir oss duftinu frá.

that lifts us from the dust.

Ó, vert þú hvern morgun vort ljúfasta líf,

O, be each morning our sweetest life,

vor leiðtogi í daganna þraut

our guide in the trials of the days

og á kvöldin vor himneska hvíld og vor hlíf

and in the evenings our heavenly rest and our shield

og vor hertogi á þjóðlífsins braut.

and our duke on the path of national life.

Íslands þúsund ár

Iceland's thousand years

Íslands þúsund ár

Iceland's thousand years

verði gróandi þjóðlíf með þverrandi tár,

may become a flourishing national life with waning tears,

sem þroskast á guðsríkis braut.

that ripen on the path of God's kingdom.
