I ditt sommarhus [English translation]

Through warm streets you travel in open cars

Throught the blue summernight cows and horses rest

On a hill the air becomes cool, the warmth comes in a valley

And in the cottage waits the wife with a fire, warm and nice

The kids can’t sleep even though they said their evening prayers

Daddy is coming, we are awake, maybe he has brought something from town

It is hot so we are naked, the sun was burning all day

The gravel is crunching in the yard – yes, indeed, now he’s coming

Daddy is coming with the mosquitos that want to come in to our house

Soon three little kids falls asleep under roof in the moonlight

The moon keeps silent over mountains, over fairytale forests

Streaks filters inside warm June barns

Bats that no one sees out in the night goes

And when the dawn shall come the birds begin their song

The sun wakes and want to wake the flowers on our balcony

The first day you wake up in your summer paradise

You will see through the lace curtain apple blossom in morning breeze

Horses are whining outside, you hear the buzzing from bumblebees

And from a eager, newborn dragonfly who wants out to the sun and light

Hits often a window pain in your own summerhouse
