Lyrics and translation Anne Nørdsti - Sommerkveld

Sommerkveld

Var naturen skjønnere?
Var gresset grønnere?
Kan du huske da vi dansa tett en sommerkveld

Var vinden varmere?
Var sola sterkere?
Da vi så ei lerke sveve over sommereng

Det var da vi var unge og levde
Satt ved havet der måker svevde
Mon tro vår kjærlighet fant veien den sommeren

Bølger slo så fint mot stranda
Der vi så etter skjell i sanda
Vi så en sommerfugl som lekte lett i vind

Var den sommer'n varmere?
Var havet saltere?
Da elsket du og jeg et sted en sommerkveld

Det var da vi var unge og levde
Satt ved havet der måker svevde
Mon tro vår kjærlighet fant veien den sommeren

Bølger slo så fint mot stranda
Der vi så etter skjell i sanda
Vi så en sommerfugl som lekte lett i vind

Var naturen skjønnere?
Var gresset grønnere?
Kan du huske da vi dansa tett en sommerkveld

Summer Evening

Was nature more beautiful?
Was the grass greener?
Do you remember when we danced closely on a summer evening

Was the wind warmer?
Was the sun stronger?
When we saw a lark hovering over a summer meadow

That was when we were young and lived
Sat by the sea where seagulls soared
I wonder if our love found its way that summer

Waves crashed so beautifully against the beach
There we searched for shells in the sand
We watched a butterfly playing lightly in the wind

Was that summer warmer?
Was the ocean saltier?
When you and I made love on a summer evening

That was when we were young and lived
Sat by the sea where seagulls soared
I wonder if our love found its way that summer

Waves crashed so beautifully against the beach
There we searched for shells in the sand
We watched a butterfly playing lightly in the wind

Was nature more beautiful?
Was the grass greener?
Do you remember when we danced closely on a summer evening
