Björn Afzelius - Fri som en fånge versuri traducere în engleză
Free as a prisoner
Lena grew up in the '60s,
she lived only for The Beatles.
She becaome radical in the '70s,
then it was only politics
To discover the world was a kick,
she wanted to change everything that happened.
She was free as a bird early in May.
She toiled in the Social Democrats Youth in the 80s,
and she didn't want to fight alone.
And soon she joined a parlimentary party,
they said that she was more than suited.
In the beginning tolerance was high,
and she just wanted to show that she was good enough.
She was as free as a bird early in May.
But something strange happens
when one gets power.
Something one never knew before.
It is like a drug,
it becomes a need.
One only knows that one wants
never to be released from it.
So Lena also began to orient herself
and tone down her wild talk.
She chose it herself,
she had no aggression.
But in the Swedish Social Democratic Party one learns
to suggest that which no one says.
Now Lena sits bound
by feet as well as by hands.
And one asks her how she once thought
she doesn't remember what she felt.
Today she has no other goal
than to collect points and seniority.
She is as free as a prisoner in Prison.

One hundred hours of happiness
One hundred hours of happiness...
Is that a little?
I mined it washing like golden sand
Collected it lovingly, tirelessly
Bit by bit, drop by drop
spark by spark, sparkle by sparkle
Created it from fog and smoke
Received it as a gift
from every star and birch tree...
Many days I spent chasing happiness
On chilled platforms,
in a rattling carriage
I caught it at the airport
At the hour of departure,
Hugged it, warmed it
in the unheated house.
I was casting spells over it, incantations...
It happened, sometimes
That from bitter grief
I extracted my happiness.
It is wrong to say that one must be born happy.
It is only necessary that the heart
was not ashamed to work for happiness
That the heart is not lazy, not arrogant,
That even for a bit of goodness
It says “Thank you”
One hundred hours of happiness,
pure, without deception.
One hundred hours of happiness!
Is that a little?

Anger
Anger blows
Anger awakens
In a lost moment, words are enough
Ancient sins the sorrow shrugs off
We ignite anger the sky burns
The blows rush and break the sky
Stones crumble
Towers fall
The world shatters
In her eyes a light so pure
We ignite anger the sky burns
The blows rush and break the sky
Good heavens
In her eyes a love so pure
A reason to endure
Stones crumble
Towers fall
Anger roars and the storm roars
Anger at ancient sins
(Ancient sins the sorrow nests)
The sadness nestles the sadness shakes
Gods broken world falls
Good crumbling destiny comes true
Gods broken world falls
Good crumbling destiny comes true
We ignite anger the sky burns

Play the music away
Lalala, music is everywhere
It's here, it revolves around us
Lalalala
Lalalala
Play the music away!
Day and night, to the beat of its heart
My life sings and busts with happiness
Lalalala
Lalalala
Play the music away!
Listen to the song of the street
It sounds like a revue's finale
It's good, it's nice, it's beautiful
It's the whole of music!
Sparrows, cars, the subway, mutts
The radio, bar and cafe jukeboxes
It's unique, fantastic
Play the music away!
But often, what I like
Is to see, when opening the shutters
The horizon, the clear sky
The country or the seaside
The city's far away, and I forget about it
Yet I hear the song of life
Lalala, music is everywhere
It's here, it revolves around us
Lalalala Lalalala
Play the music away!
In the morning, I wake up to the rooster's crow
And at night I fall asleep to the sound of rock
Lalalala
Lalalala
Play the music away!
The sound of a grade crossing bell
The strong wind in the sails of a boat
It's good, it's nice, it's beautiful
It's the whole of music!
Ducks, guitars, bikers, rug rats
The little tune that wanders randomly
It's unique, fantastic
Play the music away!
Lalala lalala lalala
Lalala lalala lalala
Lalalala
Lalalala
Play the music away!
Lalala lalala lalala
Lalala lalala lalala
Lalalala
Lalalala
Play the music away!
Listen to the song of the street
It sounds like a revue's finale
It's good, it's nice, it's beautiful
It's the whole of music!
This band, so beautiful that it sticks to our skin
It's life that gives it to us
It's unique, fantastic
It's unique, fantastic, exquisite
Play the music away!

Going Demonstrating
Come on, let's go demonstrate a little,
And stand four abreast for peace!
Come on, let's go demonstrate a little,
And some journalist is sure to write it up for his paper!
One, two, three, four!
Come on, let's go demonstrate a little,
And, if you dare, shout, 'Down with injustice!'
Come on, let's go demonstrate a little,
And if it should rain, we'll stay home.
