For the Icelandic song, a quick and inadequate translation:

In the booth

Chorus:
Brave, fallible, hesitant
the cross to give.
Lively, gifted, alert
sages in the booth.

Four walls a rag and bar,
Future of the threat and force.
But we have only three
upright – a velvet curtain.

Chorus:
Brave, fallible, hesitant
have much to give.
Lively, gifted, alert
barbarians in a booth.

Life with ink, text, blood
the herd bets it all.
Depressed county – proud nation
listens afraid of provisional data.

Chorus:
Brave, fallible, hesitant
have everything to give.
Valiant, brave, alert
the future in a booth.
