This is my english version of Heysátan by Sigur Rós. It's not a direct translation but it's in principle the same song.

'Time' is an ambient piece; which is said to reflect human nature from one point of view. This is a slow melodic new age/world genre short song. Someone who listened said it would best serve in pre-meditative scenarious.
