Sol vind och vatten [English translation]

Crickets are still chirping

To the sound of the breeze

The marbles are still rolling

On the schoolyards' gravel

And the sun is still shining

On tanned legs

The birds are still brooding

Despite the late hour

There's time for reconciliation

Before the day has passed

Because I believe, I believe in the freedom

I live in

And if that's not reality

Then I'm dreaming

Sun, wind, and water are

My favorite things

But it's you I'm

thinking of secretly

Sun, wind, and water

High mountains and deep oceans

That's what my dreams are woven from

I want to know the road

To the shepherds' house

I need to be enveloped

By a guiding star's light

There's dusk in Sion's direction*

And the night gets cool**

But the flowers are still fragrant

In the valley of the shadows

There's time for reconciliation

Before the night has bloomed

Because I believe, I believe that life

Has a happy ending

And if that's not reality

Then I'm dreaming

Sun, wind, and water are

My favorite things

But it's you I'm

thinking of secretly

Sun, wind, and water

High mountains and deep oceans

That's what my dreams are woven from

Sun, wind, and water

High mountains and deep oceans

That's what my dreams are woven from
