Kornett Peter Kulfeld [English translation]

Here he rides now in the dark

Over the mountains in a cold night

Among Armfeldt's swedish soldiers (1a)

Cornet Peter Kulfeld moves forward (1)

He's struggling with the cold

he's struggling with the wind

As he wildly and eagerly bites

his already whitened cheeks

(REF:)

So he is cradled into sleep

Jack frost requires a price

Cornet Peter Kulfeld

Falls asleep in a bed of ice

So he falls asleep there

Many memories of his life

Cornet Peter Kulfeld

from Jämtland company (3)

High on horseback

He had waged war for sixteen years

Bursting out in the foremost front

he charged, felled men with his sword

He was invincible to bullets

Invincible to blows

But now the cold wreaks havoc

Violently takes hold of his heart

(REF)(2x)
