Lyrics
Ja det va' en kväll i juni, då när sommarn e' som bäst
Hon dansade för morfar som hon gillar allra mest.
Hennes morfar satt å nynna på en sommarmelodi
Plötsligt spratt de' till i gubben, han blev ung och han blev fri
Han tog av sig sin kavaj
sparka av sig båda skorna.
Å så spotta' han ut snuset
och sa min sköna får jag lov
Hon var vacker, han var stolt, rak i ryggen som en fura
Det var sommar det var glädje och de skrattade och sjöng
Na na na na na na na na na na na nana na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
La la na na na na na na na na na na na na na
La la na la la la na na na na na na na na na
Så mindes han å sa;
Ja du skulle sett din mormor, hon va' lika grann som du
där hon dansade i gräset likadant som du gör nu Hennes hår var blekt av solen hennes mun var smultronröd
Hon va' ljuvlig som en lilja hennes kärlek va' som glöd
Så jag tog av mig min kavaj
sparka av mig båda skorna.
Å så spotta' jag ut snuset
och sa min sköna får jag lov
Hon var vacker, jag var stolt, rak i ryggen som en fura
Det var sommar det var glädje och de skrattade och sjöng
Lyrics translation
Yes it was ' an evening in June, when the summer was at its best
She danced for grandpa that she likes the most.
Her grandfather was humming a summer melody
All of a sudden, they were running around in the old man, he was young, and he was free
He took off his jacket
kick off both shoes.
Oh, he spit it out
and said My beauty may I have this dance
She was beautiful, he was proud, straight in the back like a furrow
It was summer it was joy and they laughed and sang
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
La la na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
La la la la la na na na na na na na na na na na
So he remembered and said;
Yeah, you should've seen your grandmother, she was as close as you
where she danced in the grass as you do now her hair was bleached by The Sun her mouth was Crimson
She was' lovely as a lily her love was ' like glow
So I took off my jacket
kick both of my shoes off.
Oh, I spit it out
and said My beauty may I have this dance
She was beautiful, I was proud, straight in the back like a furrow
It was summer it was joy and they laughed and sang
