The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Lad Trommerne Tale" by Lars Lilholt Band.
Lyrics
Lad trommerne tale lidt om sjælens grænser hvor vi stempled' ind
Lad trommerne tale lidt om livets mening som vi ikke kan finde
Lad trommerne tale lidt om lange skygger og om måneskin
Lad trommerne tale
Lad trommerne tale lidt om kærligheden når den er smuk og sød
Lad trommerne tale lidt om kærligheden og den sorte død
Lad trommerne tale lidt om vores glæde og det som vi fortrød
Lad trommerne tale
Lad trommerne tale højt om krig og fred og sandt demokrati
Lad trommerne tale højt om fattigdom og hvordan man er rig
Lad trommerne tale og lad skindet blafre i sin symfoni
Lad trommerne tale
Mens vi endnu bare lå
Med navlestreng og moderkage på
Hørte vi hendes hjerte slå
Moders hjerte
Og vi kaldte det for trommerne
Lad trommerne tale om den lange rejse og hvorfra vi kom
Lad trommerne tale om at turde give slip og blive tom
Lad trommerne tale højt om det vi ikke tør tale om
Lad trommerne tale
Mens vi endnu bare lå.
Lyrics translation
Let the drums talk a little about the boundaries of the soul where we stamped ' in
Let the drums talk a little about the meaning of life that we can not find
Let the drums talk a little about long shadows and about Moonlight
Let the drums speak
Let the drums talk a little about love when it is beautiful and sweet
Let the drums talk a little about love and the Black Death
Let the drums talk a little about our joy and what we regretted
Let the drums speak
Let the drums speak out loud about war and peace and true democracy
Let the drums speak aloud about poverty and how to be rich
Let the drums speak and let the skin flutter in its symphony
Let the drums speak
While we were still just lying
With umbilical cord and placenta on
Did we hear her heart beating
Mother's heart
And we called it the drums
Let the drums talk about the long journey and from where we came
Let the drums talk about daring to let go and become empty
Let the drums talk loudly about what we dare not talk about
Let the drums speak
While we were still just lying.
