Translation of the song lyrics Så Skimrande Var Aldrig Havet (Recitation) - Evert Taube

Så Skimrande Var Aldrig Havet (Recitation) (original)

S skimrande var aldrig havet
Och stranden aldrig s befriande,
Flten, ngarna och trden, aldrig s vackra
Och blommorna aldrig s ljuvligt doftande
Som nare du gick vid min sida
Mot solnedgngen, aftonen den underbara,
D dina lockar dolde mig fare vrlden,
Medan du drnkte alla mina sorger,
lskling,
I din frsta kyss.

(translation)

S shimmering never was the sea
And the shore never liberates,
The fields, the meadows and the trees, never so beautiful
And the flowers are never so sweetly fragrant
Like nare you walked by my side
Towards the sunset, the evening the wonderful,
When your locks hid me from the world,
While you drowned all my sorrows,
lsling,
In your first kiss.
