Translation of the song lyrics Den Blå Anemone - Nephew

Den Blå Anemone (original)

Hva' var det dog, der skete?
Mit vinterfrosne hjertes kvarts
Må smelte ved at se det den første dag i marts
Hva' gennembrød den sorte jord og ga' den med sit søblå flor
Et stænk af himlens tone
Den lille anemone, jeg planted' dér i fjor
Nu står den der og nikker, så sejersæl i Jyllands grus
Ukuelig og sikker trods ensomhed og gus
Som om alverdens modgang her har givet den et større værd
En lille amazone
Og dog min anemone, som søens bølge skær
Hva' var det dog, der skete?
Mit hjerte koldt og hårdt som kvarts
Det smelter ved at se det den første dag i marts
Jeg tænkte: «Evigt skiltes ad, min sjæl og glæden», da jeg sad
I vinterens grumme done
Nu gør min anemone mig atter fri og glad
Hva' var det, hva' var det dog
Hva' var det dog, der skete?
Hva' var det, hva' var det dog
Hva' var det dog, der skete?
Hva' var det, hva' var det dog
Hva' var det dog, der skete?
Hva' var det, hva' var det dog
Hva' var det dog, der skete?

(translation)

What happened, though?
My winter-frozen heart quartz
Must melt by seeing it the first day of March
What broke through the black earth and gave it with its sea-blue bloom
A splash of the tone of heaven
The little anemone I planted there last year
Now it stands there and nods, so victory seal in Jutland's gravel
Indomitable and safe despite loneliness and gus
As if the adversity of the world here has given it greater value
A little amazon
And yet my anemone, like the wave of the lake
What happened, though?
My heart is cold and hard as quartz
It melts by seeing it the first day of March
I thought, "Eternally parted, my soul and joy," as I sat
In the gloom of winter done
Now my anemone makes me free and happy again
What was it, what was it though
What happened, though?
What was it, what was it though
What happened, though?
What was it, what was it though
What happened, though?
What was it, what was it though
What happened, though?
