Sommarvisa [English translation]

Now it is summer and the blackbird sings

in the park

And the sky drops little glittering splashes

on the street department's varnished bench

And I am lying down

on the ground

Yes, now it is summer and the house sparrow twitters

on the branch

Me, I am peacefully mixing my methylated spirits with kir

And God knows best what the effect it will have

I might be able to stretch

my legs

Yes, now it is summer and the swan is grunting

in the bay

From flowers and leaves, the grass is soft

and nice to the one who from drunkenness is sick

And still it is far

to the clinic
