As a result of her countless tours in the country throughout the 90’s, Eallin was partially recorded live in Kassel. The other half of the album was registered at another live concert in Trondheim, Norway. Produced by the band, Mari Boine and Geir Østensjø. Mixed by Ulf Holand and mastered by Jan Erik Kongshaug at Rainbow Studios, Oslo.

HEAR THE VOICES OF THE FOREMOTHERS
Lyrics/sánit: Mari Boine
Music/nuohtta: Mari Boine
Gula brother
Gula sister
Hear the voices of our foremothers
Why have you defiled the earth
Poisoned
depleted
Listen brother
Listen sister
Hear the song of our ancestors
Eatnan, our mother, is Earth
If we kill her
we also die
Did you get snared in the fiction
That symbiosis is competition
Hear our forefathers’ question
Do you know where you are from
You have brothers
You have sisters
in the Amazonian rainforests
on the windswept cliffs of Greenland
Do you remember where you come from

Hør bror

Hvorfor lar du jorda lide

Hør stammødrenes stemme

tar vi livet av henne

Har du sjøl alt tatt skade

THE REVERBERATION
Lyrics/sánit: Kerttu Vuolab
Music/nuohtta: Kerttu Vuolab
The reverberation arose a joik
but I dared not listen
it roomed too much
The pines dressed up that day
readying for summer
the reverberation sounded
drew melodies
lured the eye to follow
silvery waves rippling through the ice
seduced my thoughts to dance
circling boulders on the beach
Your voice remained
alive in my heart
resounding in an echo:
“There is a freedom, even for my kind”
Again I hear my dreams
reverberations bring them to me
the waves carry my dreams
the forest chants them in the wind
“There is a freedom, even for my kind!”

SKÁDJA
Lyrics/sánit: Kerttu Vuolab
Music/nuohtta: Kerttu Vuolab
Skádja nu čuojahii luođi
Muhto in mun gierdan guldalit
Menddoban ollu mutalii
Dan beaivve čiŋadedje beazit
vuordit boahttevaš geasi
Skádja nu čuojai nuohtaid sárggui
darvvihii čalmmi čuovdit

dájuhii jurdagiid njuikkodit

Dan beaivve dáppe finadit ja

Du jietna čuojai beljjiinan

Du jietna deikke báhcán lean

Skájain dat doppe čuojaha:
“Vel muge álbmot friija lea!”
Ođđasit gulan nieguidan
Skádja daid miunnje čuojaha
Bárut mu nieguid fievrridit
Skádja daid munnje čuojaha
Vuovdi dan biekkas juoiggada:

TO YOU

Music/nuohtta: Mari Boine
Being with you
gives me warmth
Being with you
gives my soul relief
You have the presence
to listen
to take time
You have the presence
to answer
to use time
When you are with me
I feel the closed begin to open
When you are with me
I can feel the sun again
Dark rooms let in light
Cold nights start to melt
An urge within me cries
Hold us
Hold the children of our time
Wrap us in your warmth
Hold us
Cradle us
Soon eighty
Your hands still fast at work
Your words full of colours
The patterns that you weave
Without glossing over
Without covering up
You tell of time passed
Elder
Woman
In your gaze I see peace
Though you travelled through pain
Your heart remains open
You carry your wisdom
Without the need for conceit
When you are with me
I feel the closed begin to open
When you are with me
I can feel the sun warm
Dark rooms let in light
Cold nights start to melt
An urge within we cries
Hold us
Hold the children of our time
Wrap us in your warmth
Hold us
Cradle us

TIL DEG
Lyrics/sánit: Mari Boine
Music/nuohtta: Mari Boine
Når du er hos meg
føler jeg glede og varme
Når du er hos meg
faller sjela mi til ro
Du har tid
til å lytte
være nær
Tid til å spørre
høre mer
Når du er hos meg
kjenner jeg knutene løsne
når du er hos meg
slipper sollyset til igjen
Mørke rom blir fylt med lys
som varmer opp de kaldeste kroker
Jeg får lyst til å si
Hold omkring oss
hold om barna våre
Hold omkring oss
vi trenger varmen du har å gi
Hold hold oss i din favn
Du nærmer deg åtti
og hendene dine arbeider flittig
Ordene dine
så fulle av farger
som mønstrene du vever
Uten å pynte
uten å skjule
forteller du
om tida før
Gamle kvinne
med fred i blikket
og hjertet åpent
tross alt vondt
Full av visdom er du
men hoverer aldri
slik altfor mange gjør
Hold omkring oss
hold om barna våre
Hold omkring oss
vi trenger varmen du har å gi
Hold hold oss i din favn
