Forget Me Not Lyrics English Translation
Hold up your chin
Lift your chin up.
Deep breath in it’s alright
Take a deep breath, it’s going to be okay.
Here I begin missing him
Right now, I start missing him.
It’s my plight
This is my struggle.
Nothing worth having has come to me easily
I haven’t gotten anything valuable without effort.
I’ve sacrificed you all of you completely
I have given up everything, including you.
Love you forever; don’t let go of me
I will love you forever; please don’t leave me.
I left my own homeland to chase reverie
I left my country to follow my dreams.
Gleymdu mér aldrei þó ég héðan flýg
Never forget me, even if I fly away from here.
Gleymdu mér aldrei elskan mín
Never forget me, my love.
I miss the wind stone-cold kiss on my cheeks
I miss the cold wind touching my face like a kiss.
bends in your body the hope of your spring
The curves of your body hold the hope of your youth.
Millions now hear my soliloquy;
Millions are listening to my quiet, personal speech now.
I’m still that child on a black sand beach
I’m still the same child standing on a black sand beach.
Love you forever; don’t let go of me
I will love you forever; please don’t leave me.
I’ll die if I wither in your memory
I will die if I fade away from your memory.
Gleymdu mér aldrei þó ég héðan flýg
Never forget me, even if I fly away from here.
Gleymdu mér aldrei elskan mín
Never forget me, my love.

Forget Me Not Lyrics by Laufey is a heartfelt indie-folk ballad from his 2025 album A Matter of Time. The song blends soothing vocals, poetic lyrics, and gentle acoustic instrumentation to express themes of longing, memory, and love.
Forget-Me-Not from Laufey’s third album A Matter of Time is a heartfelt love letter to Iceland, capturing the bittersweet feelings of leaving home to chase dreams. Featuring gentle piano and warm strings, the song is partly sung in Icelandic to keep its authenticity because Laufey felt the chorus sounded insincere in English.
