Leïla [English translation]

Here is the history of Leïla

Who went far all the way there

In the Nordic snow desert

Was dropped by her parents

Collected by Jampo of Lapland

She grows up close to him

Collected by Jampo of Lapland

She grows up close to him

And I want her in my arms

In very very cold surroundings

A Lapp with a pulk

Who slide in the woods

She's yours, Leïla

This girl has a delicate charm

In the icy mountains of snow

He learns the life of a Lapp

The most beautiful girl of the region

It was Leïla's sixteenth year

So Jampo decided

To introduce her to a handsome Lapp

But did not want him

Feeling too young for life

And I want her in my arms

In very very cold surroundings

A Lapp with a pulk

Who slide in the woods

She's yours, Leïla

This girl has a delicate charm

(I, Magdalena, want to say goodbye to my mom and my dad and my big brother, and to my grandmother in Skane and all the laughter and all the friends)

In her canoe, it went down

All the rapids of the countries

Without worrying about all of the dangers

She becomes an emancipated Lappish

Without worrying about what will be said

And that is how Leïla

Was the legend of a very cold country

And I want her in my arms

In very very cold surroundings

A Lapp with a pulk

Who slide in the woods

She's yours, Leïla

This girl has a delicate charm

She's yours, Leïla

This girl has a delicate charm
