lyrics

Qaujimagit

Inusirni qimirrupakkit nalutsutit?
Ippiniajatit uqarqajarnagit ummaatinni?
Surlu nammatuujarsutit uqumaittumik
Inutuujuujarsutit inuqaraluarmat?

Qanuikkiit, saimaviit, aliasukkiit?
Inuusiq naammaqaa, isuartuuva?
Piusirigumanngitatinnik piusiqarqit?
Suli taitsumanitanut aulatauviit?


Ch:
Qaujimagit tukitaarunnaravit
Asitinnut aulatautjangillatit

Inuusiit uqumaittuvaa, kavarnaqa?
Isuittuvaa, atsururnaqaa, qautamat?
Qilatsusimajuujaarnimi ippigusukkit?
Suli tuqungajugasannut aulatauvit?

Ch:
Qaujimagit tukitaarunnaravit
Asitinnut aulatautjangillatit
Nuugumaguvit imminik makilaurit
Asitinnik utarqigunnailutit

Qaujimagit translation:

Have you been confused looking at your life?
Not able to tell what your feeling in your heart?
Does it feel like something heavy on your back?
Do you feel alone even when people are around?

How are you? content? comfortable?
Is life alright? Good?
Are there things you do that you don’t want to do?
Are things in the past controlling you still?

Ch:
Know that you have the power of decision
No one is controlling you

Is life hard, is it unpleasant?
Is it uncomfortable, challenging, every day?
Do you feel like you’re bound?
Are even the dead controlling you?

Ch:
Know that you have the power of decision
No one is controlling you
If you want to move, get up on your own
Don’t wait for others
