Främmande fågel [English translation]

That girl is a strange bird

That fell from the clouds, born on a different planet.

That girl is a strange bird

She bears a sorrow in her laugh and a well kept secret

And she knows what she knows

She knows to keep her secret

For she knows that those that know will pay with loneliness

The skies can open, the rain may fall

She can dance in a sunny shower in a place where no one sees

She can find everything simple in a place she herself chose

But when she meets the eyes of others, the beauty always ends.

That girl she is awake at night

The night is precious for then she is alone and strong

She knocks on her own door then

If the door is open and unlocked towards untouched ground.

She laughs by herself, so lascivious and comfortable

And she steps into something

People would say, she was dreaming

But nothing could be more real, nothing more true

There exists a place where not everyone must think alike

And she can find everything simple in a place she herself chose

But when she meets the eyes of others the beauty always ends

That girl is a strange bird

Wing clipped and wounded, but impossible to cage

That girl is a strange bird

She sings only the song she can call her own.

And it was as though she flew

Against a window pane

Beaten she fell down in her own worlds ecstasy

But nothing could be more real, nothing more true

There exists a place where not everyone must think alike

And she can find everything simple in a place she herself chose

But when she meets the eyes of others the beauty always ends.

The skies can open, the rain may fall

She can dance in a sunny shower in a place where no one sees

She can find everything simple in a place she herself chose

But when she meets the eyes of others, the beauty always ends.

That girl is a strange bird.
