Lyrics and translation Björn Afzelius - Bland Bergen I Glencoe

Bland Bergen I Glencoe

En gång var jag lycklig i Skottland,
Det var nån'stans bland bergen i Glencoe.
Jag var på väg mot Balmoral Castle,
Jag skulle se på drottningens chateau.
Jag var så fri och lycklig i Skottland,
Jag minns den tiden som den var i går;
När jag var på väg mot Balmoral Castle
Och skulle se på drottningens chateau.

Jag reste med en kvinna i Skottland,
Jag hade aldrig älskat nå'n som då;
Jag älskade av hela mitt hjärta,
Långt mera än jag nå'nsin hann förstå.
Hon var så fri och lycklig i Skottland,
Hon minns den tiden som den var i går;
När vi var på väg mot Balmoral Castle
Och skulle se på drottningens chateau.

Tiden i Skottland är borta, är borta;
Och kvinnan försvann ur mitt liv.

Jag glömmer kanske tiden i Skottland,
Jag glömmer kanske bergen i Glencoe,
Jag glömmer kanske Balmoral Castle,
Jag glömmer kanske drottningens chateau;
Men jag glömmer aldrig dom jag har älskat,
Jag glömmer aldrig dom jag hållit av;
Hon skänkte mej en del av sitt hjärta,
Det bär jag med mej alla mina dar.

Among the Mountains of Glencoe

Once I was happy in Scotland,
It was somewhere among the mountains of Glencoe.
I was on my way to Balmoral Castle,
I was going to see the Queen's chateau.
I was so free and happy in Scotland,
I remember those days like they were yesterday;
When I was on my way to Balmoral Castle
And going to see the Queen's chateau.

I traveled with a woman in Scotland,
I had never loved anyone like her before;
I loved her with all my heart,
More than I ever could have thought possible.
She was so free and happy in Scotland,
She remembers those days like they were yesterday;
When we were on our way to Balmoral Castle
And going to see the Queen's chateau.

My time in Scotland is gone, is gone;
And that woman disappeared from my life.

I may forget my time in Scotland,
I may forget the mountains of Glencoe,
I may forget Balmoral Castle,
I may forget the Queen's chateau;
But I will never forget those I have loved,
I will never forget those I have cared for;
She gave me part of her heart,
I will carry it with me all my days.
