Lyrics and translation Ultima Thule - Poltava




Poltava
Poltava
Minns ni än, för längesen
Do you still remember, a long time ago
Hur Carolus Rex gick fram
How Carolus Rex marched forward
Knä om knä - med många tusen man
Knee to knee - with many thousands of men
Han var kung, han var gud
He was king, he was god
Och given hård för skott
And given hard for shots
Knä om kan - De stolta knektars lott
Knee to knee - The proud soldiers' lot
En var van, en veteran
One was accustomed, a veteran
Hade gått i nio år
He had walked for nine years
Knä om knä - Icke gråtit en tår
Knee to knee - Not a single tear
Fäkta och framåt
Fight and advance
I slutna täta led
In closed dense ranks
Knä om knä, karoliner stred
Knee to knee, that's how the Carolines fought
" Det går galet, det går galet"
" It's going crazy, it's going crazy"
Skrek en general
A general screamed
Knä om knä - Igenom dödens portal
Knee to knee - Through the portal of death
År sjutton noll nio
In the year seventeen-oh-nine
dödens port stod trång
When the gate of death was narrow
Knä om knä - Jag ärar dem min sång
Knee to knee - I honor them in my song
