Lyrics
Å så fint de lekte sammen
De stakk seg bort og gjor'
Ulovlige ting
De trosset forbud, de trosset
Skammen
De fløy arm i arm med hver sin
Ving
Gjemt bort i kroken, kott og
Under bord
Fant de opp språket som ikke
Trenger ord
De fløy over gjenlåste porter
De sprang som lettbente hjorter
Fly barn, fly
Til Soria Moria slott
Fly like til Paradis
Fly og ha det godt
En dag tar leken slutt
Med rynker i pannen går de hver til sitt
En liten pike, en liten gutt
Blir tatt av skammen for de lekte litt
De møtte noe de ikke forsto
De var uten ord, de levde, de lo
De våknet som voksne i samme båt
Fant ordene igjen og gråt
Fly barn, fly …
Syng barn, syng
Syng i dur, syng i moll
Syng like til Paradis
Syng bort alle troll
De søkte en tilhørighet de aldri
Kunne få
De søkte en helhet bare drømmer kunne nå
Fly barn, fly …
Lyrics translation
Oh so nice they were playing together
They stuck away and makes'
Illegal things
They defied bans, they defied
Shame
They flew arm in arm with each his
Wing
Tucked away in the hook, pot and
Underboard
Did they invent the language that does not
Need words
They flew over locked gates
They sprang like light-legged deer
Fly children, fly
To Soria Moria Castle
Fly like to Paradise
Fly and have a good time
One day the toy ends
With wrinkles on the forehead, they each go to their own.
A little girl, a little boy
Being taken by the shame of the playing a little
They met something they did not understand
They were without words, they lived, they laughed
They woke up like adults in the same boat
Found the words again and cried
Fly children, fly …
Sing children, sing
Sing in major, sing in minor
Sing like to Paradise
Sing away all trolls
They sought an affinity they never
Could get
They sought a whole Only Dreams could reach
Fly children, fly …
