Det gåtfulla folket [English translation]

Children are a people and they live

in a foreign country

this country is a rain and a puddle

Over that puddle the boys' boats go sometimes

and they're gliding so nicely without keel

There walks a girl who is collecting stones

she has a million

The King of Trees is sitting silently among the branches

in the throne of the King of Trees

There walks a boy who is laughing at snow

There walks a girl who made an island

out of fifteen pillows

There walks a boy and everything he touches turns to icecream

They are all children and they belong to

the enigmatic people

Children are a people and they live

in a foreign country

this country is a meadow and a wind

There a boy might find

a new Samarkand

and travels away on a gate in motion

There walks a girl who is singing about cones

she herself has two

There at a wall is a boy doodling1

that the earth is blue

There walks a boy who became a native American

There, there walks the King of Shade around town

keeping track of all the bad guys

And there a girl found

a festive, funny face that she's practicing

They are all children and they belong to

the enigmatic people

Children are a people and they live

in a foreign country

this country is a garden and a hut

There the dangerous train assault takes place sometimes

beautiful evenings when the moon is yellow

There walks a boy guessing cars

and he wins every time

The songs of the birds in different styles

are magical jokes

In them something worthless becomes a treasure

There, in them, beds become ships for a night

and travels to the moon

In them are kingdoms that no one can take from them

They are all children and they belong to

the enigmatic people
