Paroles et traduction Ulf Lundell - Utanför murarna

Utanför murarna

Ah, det r nnu en dagp spillran av ett molnoch det r lngt till Edens ngar
Det r nnu en sommar och lskande parsom vaknar upp i varma sngar
Tunnelbanan kommer upp ver bronoch drunder glittrar vattnet
Nr andra har drmteller hllt om varannhar han smitt planer hela natten
Det kan ta sin tidinnan man kommer till skottinnan tankarna har klarnat
Att man sitter fr ett brottman inte begttatt det r lgner man ha frsvarat
Du fr stmpla ditt kortoch sitta vid ditt bandoch g en runda ute p grden
Himlarna ropar hgt dr ovanfr: Vill du ha din frihetse till att du fr den! Han har ett hjrta som slrhan har drmmarna kvar
Han r starkare nuoch han trs se sej sjlvsom den man han rsom den man han varoch han tror p ett liv utanfr murarna
Det finns mn som har vunnitvarenda bataljsom nd knner att dom ingenting har
Det finns mn som har gett uppi en hoppls kampmen som nd har sin vrdighet kvar
Det kan g r innan du frstrvem din verklige fiende r
Den dag du ser detmste du lmna dej sjlvoch g lngs en helt annan vg
Han har ett hjrta som slr...
All lngtan som flmtari korridorer och rum
Dr dom dda talar om fr dom levandehur dom ska ha det
Hr hur nycklarna rasslarvakterna viker inte en tum
Dom kan f dej att knnaatt varje tanke p flyktr ett svek mot plikten och kravet
Han har ett hjrta som slr...

Outside the Walls

Ah, it's just another dayA fragment of a cloudAnd it's a long way to the meadows of Eden
It's just another summer and loving couplesWho wake up in warm beds
The subway comes up over the bridgeAnd beneath it, the water glitters
While others are dreamingOr holding each otherHe has been plotting all night
It might take some timeBefore we get to the pointBefore the thoughts have cleared up
That you're sitting for a crimeYou didn't commitThat it's lies you have defended
You must punch your cardAnd sit at your benchAnd take a walk outside in the yard
The heavens cry out loud above you:Do you want your freedomUntil you get it! He has a heart that beatsHe still has his dreams
He is stronger nowAnd he dares to see himselfAs the man he isAs the man he wasAnd he believes in a life outside the walls
There are men who have wonEvery battleWho still feel that they have nothing
There are men who have given upA hopeless fightBut who still have their dignity left
It might take a year before you understandWho your real enemy is
The day you see itYou must leave yourselfAnd go along a completely different path
He has a heart that beats...
All the longing that flowsIn corridors and rooms
Where the dead tell the livingHow they should be
Hear how the keys are rattlingThe guards don't give an inch
They can make you feelThat every thought of escapeIs a betrayal of your duty and your obligation
He has a heart that beats...
