| När Tiden Vissnar (original) | När Tiden Vissnar (translation) |
|---|---|
| I fjarran fladdra en eld | In the distance a fire fluttered |
| Ett ensam sken i hemsk myr… | A lonely light in a horrible bog… |
| Vid tjarnen sitter han | He is sitting by the pond |
| Betrakter mlnes silverglans | Consider the silver luster of the paint |
| Som speglar sig i morka vatten | Which is reflected in dark waters |
| Nar tiden vissnar… | When time withers… |
| Fore tiden han levde redan | For the time being he was already alive |
| Bakom tiden han stiger nedan | Behind the time he rises below |
| «Vad ska det bli av honom | "What will become of him? |
| nar tiden vissnar?» | when time withers? » |
| Hans arrig ansikte flinar bister | His angry face grins grimly |
| Rl och vresig vantar han | Rl and grumpy gloves he |
| Med ogon sl dyster | With ogon sl gloom |
| Och vantar tyst till underglng | And mittens quietly to underglng |
| Fore tiden han levde redab | Currently he lived redab |
| Bakom tiden han stiger nedan | Behind the time he rises below |
