Flickan från landet i Norr [English translation]

If you're traveling to the north country,

Where the wind whines in the forests,

Take with you a greeting to one who lives there,

To her that once loved me.

If you're travelling through the snowstorms,

When the rivers freeze and the winter gets harsh,

See if she has a fur coat on her back,

To warm and protect her if the cold gets hard.

And see for me how she combs her hair,

If it rolls and flows over her breast,

I remember her well, though it was long ago,

Her pitch black hair as I remember her voice.

I wonder if she still remembers me,

Maybe she thinks about me sometimes,

I can see her clearly when the night is here,

And I am rocked to sleep in the arms of my loneliness.

If you're traveling to the north country,

Where the wind whines in the forests,

Take with you a greeting to one who lives there,

To her that once loved me.
