Текст и перевод песни CanZone Koret & Frans Rasmussen - Dengang jeg drog afsted

Dengang jeg drog afsted

Dengang jeg drog afsted
Min pige ville med
Min pige ville med, Ja!
Min pige ville med.
Det kan du ej, min ven!
Jeg går i krigen hen,
Og hvis jeg ikke falder,
Kommer jeg nok hjem igen.
Ja, var der ingen fare så blev jeg her hos dig,
Men alle Danmarks piger, de stoler nu på mig;
Og derfor vil jeg slås som tapper landsoldat.
Hurra, hurra, hurra!
(Vers 2)
Min fader og min mor,
Min fader og min mor,
De sagde disse ord:
Ja, de sagde disse ord
"Når dem, vi stoler på,
I krigen monne gå,
Hvem skal så pløje markerne, og hvem skal græsser slå?"
Ja, det er netop derfor, vi alle må af sted,
For ellers kommer tysken og hjælper os dermed;
Og derfor vil jeg slås som tapper landsoldat.
Hurra, hurra, hurra!

When I Left

When I left
My girl wanted to come with me
My girl wanted to come with me, Yes!
My girl wanted to come with me.
You can't do that, my friend!
I'm going to war,
And if I don't fall,
I'll probably come home again.
Yes, if there was no danger, I would stay here with you,
But all the girls of Denmark are counting on me now;
And that's why I want to fight as a brave soldier.
Hooray, hooray, hooray!
(Verse 2)
My father and my mother,
My father and my mother,
They said these words:
Yes, they said these words
"When those we trust,
Go to war,
Who will plow the fields, and who will cut the grass?"
Yes, that's precisely why we must all go,
Because otherwise the Germans will come and help us with that;
And that's why I want to fight as a brave soldier.
Hooray, hooray, hooray!
