Lyrics of I midsommartid - Nordman

I midsommartid (original)

ppna drren s gr vi ut, det ljusnar och vinden r varm
I ngande jord frvandlas den tid, som gmdes i mrkrets tid
Hr bjllror klingar vid sjn, nr lockropen stiger mot skyn
Och dr bland blommande rnn, gr hjorden s makligt och lugnt ner till
sjn
ppna drren, se ngelns ljus dr lvorna dansat i natt
De strdde sin skatt, sm prlor av glas, p tuvor och blek konvalj
Se solen letar sig fram och daggen blir vgor av guld
Det vcker ngot till liv, som sov i en lngtan att sona sin skuld
ppna drren s gr vi ut, det ljusnar och allt r ju hr
Som vintern har ftt, i dag har vi mtt det lfte som ljuset br Det blev ristat i en sten, det tecken vi skulle frst
S br det inom dig nu och lt det bertta om visdom och frid

(translation)

open the door and we go out, it lights up and the wind is warm
In the rising earth, the time that was hidden in the time of darkness is transformed
Here the bells ring at the sea, when the lid rises towards the sky
And there among flowering rnn, the herd goes down so leisurely and calmly
sjn
open the door, see the light of the nail where the lions danced last night
They scattered their treasure, small beads of glass, on tufts and pale lilies of the valley
See the sun find its way and the dew become waves of gold
It brings something to life, who slept in a longing to atone for his guilt
open the door and we go out, it gets brighter and everything is here
As winter has given birth, today we have met the promise that the light should It was carved in a stone, the sign we were to understand
So it should be within you now and let it tell you about wisdom and peace
