Translation of the song lyrics Du - Eva Dahlgren

Du (original)

Vi var framtidens barn
Det minns jag dom sa
Nr raketer skts mot mnen
Frn ett land
Lngt bort i vst
Vi var frortsbarn
I radhusstad
Dr vinden aldrig vnde
Bara suckade
Och dog
I denna trygga famn
Viskades hotfulla namn
P mnniskor bakom murar
P andra sidan
Stersjn
Men i vattenlvors dans
P en brygga ngonstans
Sg jag verkligheten buga sej
Och vika
Fr en drm
Brandomsdrm
Mnniskor rev ner muren
Och dom sdde frn i nyfdd jord
Hst trd bar krleksord
Gamla hjltar rodnade
Unga pojkar drog i krig dr ingen dog
Det var ett krig med ord
I ett vindpinat hus
Sprider kallt TV ljus
Drmlika bilder som flimrar
Frbi
Som i repris
-89 sen hst
Sg jag vst mta st
Men i svallet av lyckan
Drnkte verkliheten min
Drm
Dagdrm
Mnniskorna river murar
Mnniskor sr frn i brdig jord
Hst trd br krleksord
Mnniskorna lskar med varandra
I alla vxer tron
P att mnniskan
R god

Du (translation)

We were the children of the future
I remember what they said
When rockets are fired at the moon
From a country
Far to the west
We were children
In townhouse town
Where the wind never turns
Just sighed
And died
In this safe embrace
Threatened names were whispered
P people behind walls
On the other side
Stersjn
But in water dance
On a bridge somewhere
I say reality bow
And fold
For a dream
Brandomsdrm
People tore down the wall
And they sowed seed in new ground
Hst trd bar krleksord
Old heroes blushed
Young boys went to war where no one died
It was a war of words
In a windswept house
Disperses cold TV light
Dreamlike images that flicker
Frbi
As in replay
-89 sen hst
Sg jag vst mta st
But in the surge of happiness
Drowned my reality
Drm
Dagdrm
People tear down walls
Humans sow seeds in fertile soil
Hst trd br krleksord
People love each other
In all the faith grows
On that man
R good
