Lyrics

Jeg strejfer planløst om på vejene hvor jeg bor
Med fornyet appetit på livets gang her højt mod nord
Hvor folk & fæ igen færdes uvante i det fri
Mens stjernerne de funkler som Reseda’s simili
& hver en villahave har sin helt specielle duft
Der forsøder sommernattens stillestående luft
Hvor nattergalen uden at unde sig selv det mindste hvil
Slår sine triller dygtigt ramt af Amors pil
Ja natten den er lys & lang som vejen hjem til der hvor
Min uredte seng står frit i rummet fristende & klar
Med drømme der vil ku' sende enhver til verdens ende
Men jeg la’r andre om at sove & forbli’r i min tro
På at vinden hvisker i mit øre ka' du høre græsset gro

Lyrics translation

I roam aimlessly on the roads where I live
With renewed appetite for the Walk of life here high to the North
Where people and animals are again unfamiliar in the open air
While the stars they sparkle like Reseda's simili
& every villa garden has its very special scent
There, the stagnant air of the summer night neglects
Where the Nightingale without undoing even the slightest rest
Beats his trills skillfully hit by Cupid's arrow
Yes the night it is light & long as the way home to where
My unfriendly bed stands free in the room tempting & ready
With dreams that will send anyone to the end of the world
But I let others sleep & remain in my faith
On the wind whispering in my ear you can hear the grass grow
