This song, made by Páll Ísólfsson by lyrics of Davíð Stefánsson tells about the Icelandic fishermen, standing by the steer of their ship on the way to land in the dark of the night. They are praying to see the beacon lights from the lighthouse.

Burn Ye Beacons

Burn ye beacons. Heroes stand mighty at the helm
But night is on both hands (night is closing in)
Burn ye beacons. Heroes stand mighty at the helm
But night is on both hands (night is closing in)

Burn ye beacons. Out by blackened sands
The tumbling of the sea recites the names of dead men
..

Burn ye beacons. Heroes stand mighty at the helm
But night is on both hands (night is closing in)
..

Burn ye beacons. Light up for each countryman
Who seeks and yearns for home port
..
