Hvil i fred [English translation]

Disappeared with the wind before your time was up

So much you didn't get to see and didn't get to do

Now, I see what you had to go through

Would have fought your battles if I could

You left you mark on the block

Now, you rest where roses grow

Every Thursday, I stand here

By your grave, I shed another tear (May you rest in peace)

We miss you in our neighborhood

I wonder if you've found peace wherever you are (May you rest in peace)

May you rest in peace (x8)

Bled for the block, but you were abandoned

You said they weren't friends, that was true

But it strikes me one cold September night

The month I was born and you disappeared

Explain: how can the world turn

When all the good people die young (May you rest in peace)

Every Thursday, I stand here

By your grave, I shed another tear (May you rest in peace)

We miss you in our neighborhood

I wonder if you've found peace wherever you are (May you rest in peace)

How can the sun still shine? (The sun still shine?)

How can the birds still sing? (How can the birds still sing?)

In the crowd, I stand all alone (I stand all alone)

Starting over, where do I begin

When you're gone?

Every Thursday, I stand here

By your grave, I shed another tear (May you rest in peace)

We miss you in our neighborhood

I wonder if you've found peace wherever you are (May you rest in peace)

May you rest in peace (x8)
