lyrics

Sjung min lilla näktergal
om allting som du känt
om bomberna i tusental
och städerna dom bränt

Sjung min lilla näktergal
om vägens svåra val
om alla som du lämnade
om hjärtats svåra kval
Sjung tills rösten tar slut
Sjung tills sången når ut
Nånstans under flyktens gång
nånstans försvann allting som
du trodde var du

Som en dröm du vaknat från
kan du inte somna om
Detta är nu

Sjung tills rösten tar slut
Sjung tills sången når ut

Sjung min lilla näktergal
om dagen som har gått
om hur du inte orkar vara tacksam för din lott

Sjung min lilla näktergal
om dom som inte hann
om dom som inte vaknade
om dom som inte kan

Nånstans under flyktens gång
nånstans försvann allting som
du trodde var du

Som en dröm du vaknat från
kan du inte somna om
Detta är nu

Sjung tills rösten tar slut
Sjung tills sången når ut
Sjung tills rösten tar slut
Sjung tills sången når ut

translation:
Sing my little nightingale

Sing my little nightingale about everything you’ve felt
about a thousand bombs and the cities they have burned
Sing my little nightingale about the hard choices on your journey
about everyone you left behind about the grief in your heart

Sing till you have no more voice
sing until the song is heard

Somewhere during your escape
somewhere, everything that you thought was you disappeared
Like a dream you have awoken from
you can’t fall back to sleep
this moment is now
Sing till you have no more voice
sing until the song is heard

Sing my little nightingale about the day that passed
about how you are to tired to be grateful for your lot
Sing my little nightingale about the ones who didn’t make it
the ones who didn’t wake up, the ones who just couldn't

Somewhere during your escape
somewhere everything that you thought was you
disappeared
Like a dream you have awoken from
you can’t fall back to sleep
this moment is now

Sing till you have no more voice
sing until the song is heard
Sing till you have no more voice
sing until the song is heard
