Translation of the song lyrics Välfärdens Pris - Asta Kask

Välfärdens Pris (original)

Den dagen ni vaknar, den dagen ni ser
Att allt det vi fruktat ej ett hot lngre r Att faran fr mnniskan och djuren som hotas
Att jordens alla liv snabbt mste botas
OOO O OOO O OOO OOO
Ni lyssnade aldrig p varnande ord
Om krnkraft, frsurning eller krig p vr jord
Ni fortsatte dumpa era frbannade gifter
Och rustade arm’er fr kommande tvister
OOO O OOO O OOO OOO
NI LYSSNADE ALDRIG P OSS
SOM FR NATUREN VILLE SLSS
OCH ANSVARET VILAR NU P OSS
NR NI SITTER I ERA SKYDDSRUM FRSTS
Den dagen ni kommer och ber oss om hjlp
Att laga de fel som ni sjlva har stllt
Den dagen, den kommer, nr jag orden fr ta
— Ni kan skylla er sjlva, det blev som jag sa OOO O OOO O OOO OOO
NI LYSSNADE ALDRIG P OSS
SOM FR NATUREN VILLE SLSS
OCH ANSVARET VILAR NU P OSS
NR NI SITTER I ERA SKYDDSRUM FRSTS

Välfärdens Pris (translation)

The day you wake up, the day you see
That all that we have feared is no longer a threat That the danger to man and the animals that are threatened
That all the life on earth must be healed quickly
OOO O OOO O OOO OOO
You never listened to warning words
About nuclear power, acidification or war on our earth
You continued to dump your damned poisons
And armed arms for future disputes
OOO O OOO O OOO OOO
NEVER LISTENED TO US
WHICH FROM NATURE WOULD SLSS
AND THE RESPONSIBILITY NOW RESTS ON US
NO. YOU ARE SITTING IN YOUR SHELTER FRSTS
The day you come and ask us for help
To fix the mistakes that you yourself have made
The day, it comes, when I take the words
- You can blame yourself, it turned out as I said OOO O OOO O OOO OOO
NEVER LISTENED TO US
WHICH FROM NATURE WOULD SLSS
AND THE RESPONSIBILITY NOW RESTS ON US
NO. YOU ARE SITTING IN YOUR SHELTER FRSTS
