Till Kriget [English translation]

So at dawn woken from the rest

There, thoughts run out of your dreams

No one sleeps in peace

The only thing left is fights and war

I am the son of a farmer and I work as a farmhand*

Without land or a bed of my own

A soldier at 18

Dressed in a yellow and blue coat

Out on the road I went

They gave me 14 days worth of food

Stomp on, stomp on

Under the blue skies

This is where the soldier goes to his company

The company to the battalion

Here walks Svea's** rampart and weaponry

To defend house and home

So goodbye to cottages and forest

Say goodbye to your friend and the land

This is the dawn, this is the spring

Where a soldier in on his way to the war

So goodbye to cottages and forest

Say goodbye to your friend and the land

This is the dawn, this is the spring

When a soldier is on his way to the war

Reviewed for the army and written

in the hierarchy documents below Carl

They have practiced and are driven

Soldiers from his father

All men, we're from the area

All men from the same neighborhood

Not one soldier here walks in the line

that's been promised safety for money

Unrest in the south

Unrest in the east

Threats from three directions

Speaks heavily with the voice of the war

That's where we're going, stomp on

Spomp on, we're in such a hurry

Here walks Svea's*** rampart and weaponry

To defend house and home

So goodbye to cottages and forest

Say goodbye to your friend and the land

This is the dawn, this is the spring

Where a soldier in on his way to the war

So goodbye to cottages and forest

Say goodbye to your friend and the land

This is the dawn, this is the spring

When a soldier is on his way to the war
