Zurück aus Ohlsdorf [English translation]

I was late and slipped into the unoccupied rows in the back

Not many people had come, just in the front somebody stood alone

And telled a bit stiff the story of a life

Of which I didn't know much, just that it was short

and the fight for it in vain

The woman in front of me said in her neighbor's ear

That he was a shadow of his former selve and lost more and more weight

That he always said bravely, I am not fet up yet

And that the thing in his head was said to have the size of a golf ball

We used to spend the night out together years ago

And then at some point no longer

He mother said later that he spoke of me often

And that she was glad I came. I honestly though

a lot about if I should really come here

At some point he stopped getting in touch

Because I wanted to get in touch

I remember him saying as we walked through the streets

that he wanted to go to Roskilde1

once

But alone it's not fun and makes no sense

We used to spend the night out together years ago

And then at some point no longer

He still looked great as he lay there peacefully

In his black suit in the bright casket.

Like he was about to say to me

Throw the flowers away and let's walk through the door

Let's spend the night out once again like before
