And the dance goes on. Dictated by Tummas Napoleon Djurhuus. The photos were taken by Ingálvur av Reyni.
Tummas Napoleon Djurhuus. He was born in Kollafjörður in 1928. When he was young, he went to Havnar, took his real exam and then, in 1946, his student exam. For a time he worked as a temporary worker, studied philosophy at the learned university in Cape Mannahavn, but then in 1949 he went to Føroya teacher training school, from where he graduated in 1952. For a time he was vicar in Fuglafjörður, but in 1953 he was put to work at the intermediate and real school, the latter named Tórshavn Kommunuskuli. In the school year 1962-63, he was on a semester at Danmarks Lærerhøjskole in Keypmannahavn, and that year he was responsible for the publication of a new paper, Framin, published by the youth association Oyggjaframi. Tummas was on the editorial board for the first year, 1962-63.
In the following year, he made more historical poems for Útvarp Føroya, and he often took part in the radio's entertainment programs.
Tummas Napoleon died in 1971.
For a long time, the young blåðung made Tummas a land-stealer by his taunting, the rags about Kollfjörður's weather, about Melis and the lifelong student, Trolpól's son, flew around the country and became plagues of the land. In 1961 he published the first collection »Tættir og víður« and in 1970 came the second collection: »Háfjalssolin og hostasevjan«. One example of his breed is »Love is lucky!«
»I praise you brilliantly;
for that is what people should know,
so many on a colder night,
you gave me melting heat.
So tomorrow on a colder night,
You are gentle, you are gentle, you are soft,
We both had a good time!
- I would stroke you softly.
I love you - yes, absolutely,
you pussy, you fly, you fine,
- even if you are a little short -
"You, my blessed mattress."
From: Árni Dahl: Book History I-III. Found 1980-83.
