Here the forefathers wrought axe and knife
From the sun-weathered chips of ancient bedrock
And farmed their plot of land
And defended their life
In their austere, heathen fashion
On this ground they stood, looked up from Svea's earth
Glancing toward the sky, they looked at the stars
Here their eyes followed the clouds, felt sun and rain
From the sky they so valued, they safely predicted the weather
I heard that everthing has to go, all shall be destroyed
They say: that which was, it shall be no more
That the things of old have mouldered, only give us trouble
They say: The words of old shall be heard around here no more
You say: it is no longer, everything shall be hidden away
That which once was, I always carry it with me
You say: away with it ! it shall be no more
And this i sing of a world, a world that doesn't exist
Old words you erase, Old songs are eradicated
Yet old and grey wisdom, is still smarter than that
Say: things have really change. But I see it every day
My roots, you will never root them out
Have you listened to the songs
That billow like waves
About the homeland pastures
And budding thickets
A spring morning embraced by the sun
A cabal of liberals, with lazy shitstained hands
Change and alter at their whim
All screaming: Individuality ! I see they collectively agree
They don't understand a thing, no not one bit
