lyrics

Isumavunga

Imminik tauturquuqunga saumajumik
Aliasuttumik isumaaluanngitumik
Isumavunga inuusirmik isuartumik
Ulapirsauti qaujigumagivara

Sunaummangaat tukisinnginakku
Tusaumatuinnatara
Qanurlikiaq ippinartuq
Namminiq suusutsaniq

Ah-ahh

Qinilaurama takulirqunga pitjutinik
Nanigumanngitakka takuvakka ummatigani
Atsururnaraluarpat anigulaarmat uppilunga
Uqumaittuup asianik pitaqarmat

Naimalitainnaqunga
Takulitainnasunga
Ippigusugiurqunga
Sakkuigiurama

J’ouvre mon coeur, je sens
Je ferme mes yeux, je vois

Isumavunga translation:
I dream of myself content
Happy and carefree
I’m thinking about a life comfortable
I too want to know what peace is

Because I don’t understand it
I have only heard about it
I wonder how it feels
To respect oneself

Ah-ahh

I found the reasons because I looked
I found what I didn’t want to find in my heart
I have to believe that it will pass even if it’s difficult
Because there’s gotta be more than just hardship

I can finally smell the scent
And I can finally see
I can finally feel
As I finally let go

I open my heart, I feel
I close my eyes, I see
