Translation of the song lyrics Farfar Sang - Rasmus Seebach

Farfar Sang (original)

Jeg puster støv af de gamle plader
Så mange minder gemt i hver melodi
Jeg ser hvordan du reagerer på stemmen
Måske den lyder som min
La' mig fortælle dig om manden, der synger
Ja, jeg har nemlig ogs' engang haft en far
Måske ikk' verdens allergladeste eventyr
Men det' der, vi kommer fra
De sagde, Tommy han var noget for sig
Og levede et liv på landeveje
Farfar sang
Og der var kvinder, der dansede
Og drengene, de skålede natten lang
Og når han nåede til det store refræn
Så mærkede han alvor blive til leg
Så farfar sang
Og selv når festen den sluttede
Så sluttede den aldrig for ham
Farfar sang
Kom, vi finder minderne frem
Og så' der kvinder, der danser
Og drengene, de skråler natten lang
Til farfars sange om kærlighed
Om at sige det, som det er, og gi' ren besked
Så var der dem, der stod og himlede i hjørnet
Nok lidt for kloge til at være med
Men hvis han var her, så ville farfar ha' sagt til dig
At dem der tvivler, ska' du ikk' lytte til
Gå ud i verden, vær dig selv til det sidste
Bare la' dem sige lige hva' de vil
Åh, de sagde, Tommy han var noget for sig
Og levede et liv på landeveje
Farfar sang
Og der var kvinder, der dansede
Og drengene, de skålede natten lang
Og når han nåede til det store refræn
Så mærkede han alvor bli' til leg
Så farfar sang
Og selv når festen den sluttede
Så sluttede den aldrig for ham
Farfar sang
Kom, vi finder minderne frem
Og så' der kvinder, der danser
Og drengene, de skråler natten lang
Til farfar
Der' nogle nætter hvor savnet det fylder alting
Jeg bli’r vred over at I aldrig lært' hinanden at kende
Så smiler du, og jeg ka' høre ham i et ekko
Jeg tror han er i os begge to
For Tommy han var noget for sig
Han levede et liv på landeveje
Farfar sang
Der var kvinder der dansede
Og drengene, de skålede natten lang
Og når han nåede til det store refræn
Så mærkede han alvor bli' til leg
Så farfar sang
Og selv når festen den sluttede
Så sluttede den aldrig for ham
Farfar sang
Kom, vi finder minderne frem
Og så' der kvinder der danser
Og drengene, de skråler natten lang
Til farfars sang (til farfars sang)
Vi finder minderne frem
Og så' der kvinder der danser
Og drengene, de skråler natten lang
Til farfar

Farfar Sang (translation)

I breathe dust off the old plates
So many memories stored in each tune
I see how you react to the voice
Maybe it sounds like mine
Let me tell you about the man who sings
Yes, I once had a father too
Perhaps not the world's happiest adventure
But that's where we come from
They said Tommy he was something for himself
And lived a life on country roads
Grandfather sang
And there were women dancing
And the boys, they toasted the night long
And when he reached the great refrain
Then he felt serious about turning into play
Then grandfather sang
And even when the party it ended
Then it never ended for him
Grandfather sang
Come on, we'll find the memories
And then there are women dancing
And the boys, they bark all night long
To grandfather's songs about love
To say it as it is and to give it a clear message
Then there were those who stood and stared at the corner
Probably a little too clever to be with
But if he was here, Grandpa would have told you
That those who doubt, 'you should not' listen to
Go out into the world, be yourself to the last
Just let them say exactly what they want
Oh, they said Tommy he was something for himself
And lived a life on country roads
Grandfather sang
And there were women dancing
And the boys, they toasted the night long
And when he reached the great refrain
Then he felt serious about playing
Then grandfather sang
And even when the party it ended
Then it never ended for him
Grandfather sang
Come on, we'll find the memories
And then there are women dancing
And the boys, they bark all night long
To grandfather
There 'some nights where missed it fills everything
I'm angry you never got to know each other
Then you smile, and I can hear him in an echo
I think he's in both of us
For Tommy he was something for himself
He lived a life on country roads
Grandfather sang
There were women dancing
And the boys, they toasted the night long
And when he reached the great refrain
Then he felt serious about playing
Then grandfather sang
And even when the party it ended
Then it never ended for him
Grandfather sang
Come on, we'll find the memories
And then there are women dancing
And the boys, they bark all night long
To grandfather's song (to grandfather's song)
We find the memories
And then there are women dancing
And the boys, they bark all night long
To grandfather
