Simmaren [English translation]

They sell off my homeland

The competition will be free

So take your life in your own hands

No one interfering

The naked and the dead

All will be together

But you must blame yourself now

If you have a problem

It is your problem

Our storytime changes and we flee from rhetoric

To charter-white shores

Happy Christmas and Happy New Year and all is forgotten

Let it be

Let time do the job for us

It runs by us till the end

But you I will never ever forget

Let it be

Let it sink like the Titanic

That which was is over

But you I will never ever forget

What feels like a couple of hours

Could be months going by

Why does time increase in speed

The less of it one has left

I am the lake concealed in the mists

The one that almost grew again

Where you taught me to swim

in August 1975

Let it be

Let time do the job for us

It runs by us till the end

But you I will never ever forget

Let it be

Let it sink like the Titanic

That which was is over

But you I will never forget

Happiness is your own affair

Happiness is private

But sadness must be shared

Otherwise it becomes all too great

Let it be

Let time do the job for us

It runs by us till the end

But you I will never ever forget

Let it be

Let it sink like the Titanic

That which was is over

But you I will never forget
