Lyrics and translation André Rieu - Solveigs Song

Solveigs Song

Kanske vil der gå både Vinter og Vår,
Og næste Sommer med, og det hele År,
Men engang vil du komme, det ved jeg vist,
Og jeg skal nok vente, for det lovte jeg sidst.
Gud styrke dig, hvor du i Verden går,
Gud glæde dig, hvis du for hans Fodskammel står.
Her skal jeg vente til du kommer igjen;
Og venter du hist oppe, vi træffes der, min Ven!

Solveig's Song

Perhaps winter and spring will both pass,
And the following summer, and an entire year,
But someday you will come, that I am certain,
And I will wait, as I promised I would.
May God strengthen you wherever you may roam,
May God gladden you if you are before his throne.
Here I will wait until you come again,
And if you are waiting above, we shall meet there, my friend!
