Translation of the song lyrics Istedgade - Peter Belli

Istedgade (original)

Hun hedder Laila, og hun er danser
Hun er rigtig majet ud i sit disko-danseskrud
Hun kan det hele, på høje hæle
Hun vil være disko-star og mens Egon passer bar
Så tager hun rigtig fat og knokler løs hver nat
De er unge og elsker hinanden, så går alting glat
Istedgade!
I Istedgade
Er der altid en hel del ballade
Istedgade!
I Istedgade!
Bøhmænd og skaller
Musik og rabalder
Istedgade!
Et dejligt sted
Men så kom Villy, en fredag aften
Han sku' ud og ha' det sjovt
Men han blev vidst lidt for grov
Da han så Laila, så sagde han «Hejsa!»
Du er en dejlig disko-steg
Kom her og dans en dans med mig"
Men Egon var der straks, og Villy han fik klaps
Og så kom politiet og tog alle med
Istedgade!
I Istedgade
Er der altid en hel del ballade
Istedgade!
I Istedgade!
Bøhmænd og skaller
Musik og rabalder
Istedgade!
Et dejligt sted
Hun hedder Laila og hun er danser
Men hun ser lidt kedelig ud, ligner mest en vredet klud
Og hendes øjne har mistet glansen
Og den mascara hun har på, den er meget kraftig blå
Og baren passer Knud, for Egon tog et skud
Og der går nok en lille måned, før han kommer ud
Istedgade!
I Istedgade
Er der altid en hel del ballade
Istedgade!
I Istedgade!
Bøhmænd og skaller
Musik og rabalder
Istedgade!
Et dejligt sted

(translation)

Her name is Laila and she is a dancer
She's really majeured out in her disco dance gear
She knows it all, on high heels
She wants to be a disco star and while Egon fits the bar
Then she really grabs and knuckles loose every night
They are young and love each other, so everything goes smoothly
Istedgade!
In Istedgade
Is there always a lot of trouble
Istedgade!
In Istedgade!
Bohemians and shells
Music and fuss
Istedgade!
A nice place
But then came Villy, one Friday night
He should go out and have fun
But he was known a little too rough
When he saw Laila, he said "Hello!"
You're a nice disco-rose
Come here and dance a dance with me "
But Egon was there immediately, and Villy he got slapped
And then the police came and took everyone with them
Istedgade!
In Istedgade
Is there always a lot of trouble
Istedgade!
In Istedgade!
Bohemians and shells
Music and fuss
Istedgade!
A nice place
Her name is Laila and she is a dancer
But she looks a little dull, most resembling a twisted cloth
And her eyes have lost their luster
And the mascara she is wearing, it is very strong blue
And the bar suits Knud, for Egon took a shot
And it's probably a little over a month before he comes out
Istedgade!
In Istedgade
Is there always a lot of trouble
Istedgade!
In Istedgade!
Bohemians and shells
Music and fuss
Istedgade!
A nice place
