Sakta vi gå genom stan [English translation]
Oh, it's wonderful when my Stockholm is green
slowly we walk through the town
A kiss, then you'll walk slowly again
Slowly a tour through the town
Oh it's night and from a distance you hear laughter
and you walk home through the town
A scent of hay from a lovely archipelago island
silently slinks downtown
Just like your arm, so light and so warm
is the wind of the summer against my cheek
And the night is still, it doesn't exist
A silence, a shadow, a wind
It's so short and it slowly fades away
when the thrushes awake downtown
The clock strikes two, the whole sky is blue
Slowly we walk through the town
Slowly a man is rowing a boat this way
stopping and looking at a swan
Everything is quiet and I'm silent, recently kissed
Slowly we walk through the town
On Väster-bridge in the heavenly peace
a tram goes, lonely and empty
All of the houses paint the night in lights
Secretly the trees blossom
Here lives a million
Tell me, do they hear the tone Stockholm is now playing for them
They are going away, far away from here
but Stockholm, that's our home
Wherever we go I know Stockholm is our
when we slowly walk through the town
Here we walk with a silent melody
lonely through the whole town
We stop at the birds' drill
We're smelling a scent of violet
And happily we hear a cheering crowd
Then rises a sparkling sun
Oh, it's wonderful when my Stockholm is green
A night, slow, when in town
A kiss, then walking again
slowly walking home through the town
slowly walking home through the town
slowly walking home through the town
