I'm from Denmark and have heard the expression "mirror blue" in a song.

I am from Denmark, too ;-)
'mirror blue' means in Danish 'spejlblå'.

Hi Birgitte
You've translated "mirror" to the danish word "spejl" and "blue" to "blå".
But I've never heard the word "spejlblå" in danish? Have you? I Can't find
it in any danish dictionary, "Nudansk Ordbog" e.g.

I should be happy to hear an english description of "mirror blue". Is it
just a shiny, blue colour? Is it related to the blue sky? To the sea?

Regards
Jakob


Hi again, Jakob,
I have not met the word 'mirror blue' before,
but I regard it pure poetry.
I would translate the text:
"Den nøgne blå engel ... forsvinder i den dybe spejlblå nat."

Kind regards
Birgitte
