Translation of the song lyrics Hvil i fred - Sleiman

Hvil i fred (original)

Forsvandt med vinden, før din tid var gået
Så meget du ikk' fik set og ikk' fik nået
Jeg ka' se, hva' du måt' igennem nu
Vil' ha' kæmpet dine kampe, hvis jeg ku'
På blokken sat' du spor
Nu hviler du, hvor roser gror
Hver torsdag står jeg her
Ved din grav fælder jeg en tåre mer'
Må du hvil' i fred
Vi savner dig i vores kvarter
Mon du har fundet ro, hvorend du er
Må du hvil' i fred
Må du hvil' i fred, må du hvil' i fred
Må du hvil' i fred, må du hvil' i fred
Må du hvil' i fred, må du hvil' i fred
Må du hvil' i fred, må du hvil' i fred
Blødt' for blokken, men blev efterladt
Du sagde, de ikk' var venner — det var sandt
Det rammer mig en kold september nat
Den måned jeg blev født, og du forsvandt
Forklar, hvordan ka' verden dreje rundt
Ah, når al' de gode de dør ung'?
(Må du hvil' i fred)
Hver torsdag står jeg her
Ved din grav fælder jeg en tåre mer'
Må du hvil' i fred
Vi savner dig i vores kvarter
Mon du har fundet ro, hvorend du er
Må du hvil' i fred
Hvordan kan solen stadig skinne?
(Solen stadig skinne?)
Hvordan ka' fuglene stadig synge?
(Hvordan ka' fuglene stadig synge?)
I mængden står jeg helt alen' (der står jeg helt alen')
Starter forfra — hvor ska' jeg begynde, når du er væk?
Hver torsdag står jeg her
Ved din grav fælder jeg en tåre mer'
Må du hvil' i fred
Vi savner dig i vores kvarter
Mon du har fundet ro, hvorend du er
Må du hvil' i fred
Må du hvil' i fred, må du hvil' i fred
Må du hvil' i fred, må du hvil' i fred
Må du hvil' i fred, må du hvil' i fred
Må du hvil' i fred, må du hvil' i fred

Hvil i fred (translation)

Gone with the wind before your time was up
So much you didn't get to see and didn't get to reach
I can see what you have to go through now
Would've fought your battles if I could
On the block you put tracks
Now you rest where roses grow
Every Thursday I stand here
At your grave I shed one more tear'
May you rest in peace
We miss you in our neighborhood
I wonder if you have found peace wherever you are
May you rest in peace
May you rest in peace, may you rest in peace
May you rest in peace, may you rest in peace
May you rest in peace, may you rest in peace
May you rest in peace, may you rest in peace
Soft' for the block, but was left behind
You said they weren't friends — it was true
It hits me on a cold September night
The month I was born and you disappeared
Explain how the world turns
Ah, when all the good die young?
(May you rest in peace)
Every Thursday I stand here
At your grave I shed one more tear'
May you rest in peace
We miss you in our neighborhood
I wonder if you have found peace wherever you are
May you rest in peace
How can the sun still shine?
(The sun still shine?)
How can the birds still sing?
(How can the birds still sing?)
In the crowd I stand all alone' (there I stand all alone')
Starting over — where do I begin when you're gone?
Every Thursday I stand here
At your grave I shed one more tear'
May you rest in peace
We miss you in our neighborhood
I wonder if you have found peace wherever you are
May you rest in peace
May you rest in peace, may you rest in peace
May you rest in peace, may you rest in peace
May you rest in peace, may you rest in peace
May you rest in peace, may you rest in peace
