Alexander Rybak - 13 Horses Lyrics
13 horses swimming in the sea
Waiting for someone to find them
Their ship is gone
and now they are alone
With water everywhere around them
from the sinking ship
Right before it started to burn
And while they're safe
their loyal friends need help
Patiently waiting for their turn
13 horses swimming in the sea
They don't even know it's pointless
Their pride remains
but this time it won't help
and suddenly they're small
There's a couple waiting far behind
Soon they will be out of sight
But then who cares -
they're dying anyway
All of them are doomed this night
11 horses swimming in the sea
The sea they thought was just a river
They're used to this
it's probably just a race
That helps to ease their minds
but where's the finish line
The night grows dark
the body wants to rest
It hurts to breathe
and still they do their best
They want to live
no matter for how long
Their thoughts all disappeared
'Cause now they're really scared
7 horses struggling in the sea
Waiting for someone to find them
They don't look back
'cause what's the point of that
There is only death behind them
They cry for help
but help will never come
They don't know where to swim
or what they're swimming from
They try to swim some more
when panic starts to spread
They're swimming in to shore
but only in their heads
The 3 last horses
Dying in the sea
Shouting out their cries for no one
They're born to win
they're screaming in their hearts
The strength of thousand men
They're fighting to the end
The sun is out
Birds are everywhere
They're flying high
surfing in the air
It's nice to live
when life is such a blast
One horse still swims
it seems to be the last
The thirteenth horse
has always been the best
His owner will be proud
But now he wants to rest
He's longing for his home
The girl will give him food
"Good boy" - she'll say
together they will play
13 horses swimming in the sea
Soon they will be gone forever
And while they swim,
One thing still remains
And that's the hope that never dies
It never dies
It never dies

Alexander Rybak 13 Horses Comments
i love this song, but it's giving me a breakdown
People asks in the comment senction that why he made it.
But sometimes, the human is very sad.
Alexander is an artist. He has his own world, with his happy or sad feelings. He live these feelings powerful. And this is why he can make a happy or sad lovely music, but rarely, he can give us a very tragic-dramatic song. Now, in this case, 13 horses will be that.
I have ear problems nowadays. There was an octopus in my Right ear. Ican't go to swim or play in a water all summer. I have to go to the ear duty every week.
So, I really needed this song. Thank you from Hungary Alexander, that you show the all feelings of the world.
How to play this song on piano?
The first song which I’m crying with 😢😭
This is not a song, its a poem
20 horses dislikes this video
Do we know why we live?
And why we die, why we think?
"I am thinking if so there i am"
-Descartes
Like us, symbolic horses and our hopeless
~Türkçe çeviri
13 at denizde yüzüyor
Birisinin onları bulmasını bekleyerek
Gemileri gitti ve şimdi onlar yalnız
Etraflarında suyla
İnsanlar batan gemiden kurtarıldı
Tam o (gemi) yanmaya başlamadan önce
Ve onlar güvendeyken sadık dostlarının yardıma ihtiyacı var
Sabırla onların dönmesini bekliyorlar
13 at denizde yüzüyor
Amaçsız olduğunu bilmiyorlar bile
Gurur kalıyor ama bu sefer yardımı olmayacak
Eskiden çok uzunlardı (büyüklerdi) aniden kısalar (küçükler)
Çok uzaklarda bir çift var
Yakında görüşten uzak olacaklar
Ama o zaman kim umursar, her durumda ölüyorlar
Hepsi bu gece lanetlendi
11 at denizde yüzüyor
Deniz sadece nehir diye düşündüler
Buna alıştılar, büyük ihtimalle bir yarış
Bu akıllarını sakinleştirmelerine yardım ediyor ama bitiş çizgisi nerede?
Gece kararıyor, vücut dinlenmek istiyor
Nefes almak acıtıyor ve hala ellerinden gelenin en iyisini yapıyorlar
Ne kadar uzun olursa olsun yaşamak istiyorlar
Düşünceleri kayboldu çünkü şimdi onlar çok korktu
7 at denizde cebelleşiyor
Birisinin onları bulmasını bekleyerek
Geriye bakmıyorlar çünkü bunun anlamı ne
Arkalarında sadece ölüm var
Yardım için ağlıyorlar ama yardım asla gelmeyecek
Nereye yüzeceklerini bilmiyorlar ya da neyden yüzdüklerini
Biraz daha yüzmeye çalışıyorlar panik yayılmaya başladığında
Kıyıya yüzüyorlar ama sadece akıllarında
Son 3 at denizde ölüyor
Çığlıklarını bağırıyorlar hiç kimseye
Kazanmak için doğdular, kalpleriyle çığlık atıyorlar (çığlık atarak kendilerini yırtıyorlar)
Bin insanın gücü, sonuna dek savaşıyorlar
Güneş tepede, kuşlar her yerde
Yüksekten uçuyorlar, havada sörf yapıyorlar
Hayat bu kadar kutsanmışken yaşamak güzel
Bir at yüzüyor sonuncusu gibi görünen
13. at her zaman en iyisiydi
Sahibi gurur duyacak ama şimdi dinlenmek istiyor
Evi için hasret çekiyor, kız ona yemek verecek
İyi çocuk diyecek kız, beraber oynayacaklar
13 at denizde yüzüyor
Yakında sonsuza dek gitmiş olacaklar
Ve onlar yüzerken hala bir şey kalıyor
Ve bu da hiç ölmeyen umut
Asla ölmez, asla ölmez
Hepimiz öleceğiz
Sembolik atlar ve umutsuzluğumuz
Sözleri çok güzell ve çok anlamlı
It is tell to that we weak
Do you know guys the story of the song? I mean, the song really sad but why Alexander don't wanna talk about it? 🤔
Like us, all of people, not horses, i think
I guess he told that life's philosophy.
Introduced meaning things like life..
Water please, I think I just got dehydrated....
So soft
After 9 years I discovered it. Just listen to song HOW INSENSITIVE. I know both songs pretty much the same time. But right now I heard the similarities. Many of them...
one drop tears everytimes..
This song is the saddest from Alexander Rybak.. I cry every time I hear it.. 😭
i was happy 5min 40 ago T-T ... Beautiful song though
This give me goosebumps and almost made me cry omg
lets think of something happy happy thoughts
I can't control my tears after hearing your voice singing this beautiful song <3
... Isn't this based on a Russian poem with the same thing?
This is so heartbreaking,so sad, but that‘s the most powerfull song i‘ve ever heard
Rørende, trist og vakker!
Dark, grim, brutal but good =)
It wasn't so bad until he sang "11 horses"
This is like the saddest shit I've ever heard in almost 4 years. Play this in my funeral cause this thing is literally the darkest and most depressing song in my gallery
Mr wily brought me here
Who are the sixteen people who dislike this?!?
This song gives me goosebumps. I can picture the whole story in my head
i couldn't find this song in the spotify.Whyy god whyyy????
I heard this song first in 2009.... and STILL it makes me cry EVERYTIME I listen to it..... uggghhhh
Onions. It's just ninjas with onions.
Sounds like can't take my eyes off of you by frank vaille
I just...really love how this song is so depressing but so beautiful at the same time 3
Alex.... i dont like you anymore.... ;-;
This is about life in nutshell... hope never dies...
It is sad on it's own...but instead of horses imagine dogs or whichever fauvorite animal of yours was the horses :(
I never knew a song could bring out so many and strong emotions
I really love this song but... I don't mince to listen
I am crying!
So deep song...
This is the saddest song I have ever heard, really heartbreaking
But the girl won't give him food if the horse is in the ocean and dies *cries
Extremely sad song......just to think of the horses !!! Walt in Miami
13 people disliked the video 13 horses *mind blown*
I was in a good mood, until I heard this song
here from a fanfic
''13 horses the saddest song ı know but ı don't wanna talk about it. ''

my life summarized in a song
Klavier Gavin nice profile pic
@Best Meme Around thanks bro, yours too.
Omg this song 😢😢😢 anything that hurts animals plz,
ik this sound cruel but I'm sure I wouldn't have cared about this song if it was replaced with sailors instead of horses, never mind I would probably still be sad,
hell I'm doing a cover of this song and changing horses to pebbles
same here! I wouldve liked this if it wasnt about animals dying if it were sailors I wouldve loved this song lol. though in this days and age if this would happan with horses they WOULD actually try to save the horses and not be like ''fuck it'' .
so sad but soo powerful at all... I love this song <3
Beautiful
Fuck...
amazing how the chord turns into major as the lyrics turns happy. f**king genius.
i want to write something, but can not find any words .... ;!;
i havent listened to this song since it came out. **feels**
what is this for musik style? 😅 (sorry for my bad english)
Natalie Portman in a swimsuit
haha Rybak inspired me to look that up
lets think of something happy, Happy thoughts..
Well that was sad...
:,(
wow noice
i was very happy in my life and i heard this song.... big mistake.
Sophie Ferchichi Why?
😢😢😢😢
does anyone know the meaning behind this song?? so depressing hahah but so powerful!!!!
Ignacio - did you also see his question and answer video?😂😁
When I first heard this song, I was like 10? I didn't know ANY word in English and my mom translated it for me and I cried. Now I understand anything and I'm crying again...
but dang this I depressing........
Üzücü=sad=p
I really love this song but it makes me so upset, I guess that's the point but still :(
this is like the saddest song I have ever heard shit got me right in the fucking feels. and yet I love this song so much.
I was criyng
me 2 and I don't even like horses😢😢
I like it
😢😢😊😊
It's so sad and a like it
This song teaches 2 important things. A) Even when our chances are at their slimmest, hope doesn't die. B) We humans are selfish creatures. As long as we're fine, it doesn't matter if a few animals die, we can always get more. And it's fucking sad.
Define the hope part... there is no hope - it's like the Sound of Silence.. just goes darker until the lights are out.
as long as I hear music
this one will remain one of my mostly favourite very few songs
;-; 3
Alexander...why? This made me so sad and angry and I am crying but still his voice is something so amazing...how can he make pain and suffering sound so good?
I cried....I love horses so much I just can't ;-;

@The Vodka Mastarr ono
Hello .3.
I love horses more than pizza
I find this a bit ironic that in Greek mythology Poseidon, the god of the sea is the one that created horses and the horses are dying in the sea...
Потрясающий перевод и новая интерпритация песни!
Do you guys think the last horse could have survived? Because there are birds flying at the end so he is approaching the coast...
I hope so.
+Yann Tombre Dont think so. it says "all of them are doomed this night", "they're dying anyway", etc.
@The101Coolguy Yea I see your point.
+Yann Tombre That bird thing can also mean that the last horse is just dreaming about home ?
That last horse is dead and the last part is him (or her) going to heaven. Heartbreaking but powerful
Well this was freaking heartbreaking. Beautiful, meaningful song, but it's horrifyingly sad.
this is like
saddest song ever
dont you even try to convince me its not
it is
hauntingly beautiful
that was the saddest song i ever heard :'( it was pretty still
how can you even continue to sing that is so heartbreaking gorgeous voice you really pulled it off
Beatiful, beautiful. I new he's a great singer, but this song showed he is a master in using the voice.
IF it were talking about people on a ship, i'd be fine. But because it is talking about horses(taking this literally and not metaphorically) this made me cry. because people are selfish and there's nothing the animals can do about it.
your not the only one
i feel like im permanently heartbroken :/
this song made me cry :'(
I think this song is about people who play that they are good friend of yours(at the same time they are using you) and when the things turn bad they just leave you alone...
(sorry for my english)
