Vår Tid - Vårt Land [English translation]

Country, our country - fatherland

We hold you in our hand,

and is a part of you, part of me

A part of us... and everybody...

You are enough - if you really want

Here we are, in our world

Has the lion dropped its sword?

We ask, who are we, who am I

Who is who, in our home

Somebody who knows? Identity?

It is here were we speak our languages

...and you are always welcome here!

Our time - our country

This is where I once was born,

this is where I got my name.

Our time - our country... Our country... in our time.

Dreams from back in the days - nostalgia

Crooning on your melody

But the world turned, a long time ago

The time it - goes and goes...

Sweeping away old trails

This time, the wounds improve

Remember that we love you from our hearts

Our time - our country

This is where I once was born,

this is where I got my name.

Our time - our country... Our country... in our time.

I landed back up at my mothers street

Can I clear my mind as mother spoke

Can I switch language? Yeah, I talk about the same

I don’t see a duckpond, I see the same flag

Same old discussion, it only gathers dust

How can it be accepted if it’s called mandatory swedish? Well...

I see hands in the ceiling all the way from Karis to Kuopio

Through Ostrobothnia, eyy. They’re up to bounce

We are here on mothers street

Maybe walking in fathers footsteps

For how much longer will people be able to nag

about fatherland and native language?

Our time - our country

This is where I once was born,

this is where I got my name.

Our time - our country... Our country... in our time.
