I've Translated the Lyrics for En Sång om Sörg och Glädje, too!:)

Since I don't know the lyrics, and I was having trouble learning them, I was getting bored of humming while I played it on the guitar, so yesterday, with Google translate and the little bit of Swedish I know, I translated it to English!:) I usually give up trying to translate songs, but I managed to finish this one. It keeps to the tune, and rhymes in the right places, and even my dad liked it.:) The second verse (which he didn't hear) was the hardest to translate,and it's probably the worst part of the song, but it still works pretty well.:)
Here are the lyrics:

In the day so gloomy, and the morning cold,
If you really listen, you will always hear a song.
Somehow through the burdens; somehow through the gray,
It's notes always manage to reach up to me anyway.

Through each day goes a gentle melody,
Made by two in familiarity and sympathy.
From the very first spring,
It has come through all things.
Right behind us, comforting, it's been.
When I want, I can hear the melody:
A song of joy and sadness playing soft and gently.
Through the dark dark of the day,
The song's heard anyway.
I feel as though it's singing all my joy and sadness.

Our song reflects the dreams we had long ago.
Anxiousness and worry, I can hear in it, also.
It sings of illusions, joy and careful thought.
Everything in life, even sadness and being bored.


Through each day goes a gentle melody,
Made by two in familiarity and sympathy.
From the very first spring,
It has come through all things.
Right behind us, comforting, it's been.
When I want, I can hear the melody:
A song of joy and sadness playing soft and gently.
Through the dark dark of the day,
The song's heard anyway.
I feel as though it's singing all my joy and sadness.

How do you like it?:) I'm going to try and find a better translation for the last half of the second verse. In Swedish, the last word was 'tristess' but on Google the only translation for it is 'boredom'.:PThe last word of the second-last line translated to 'finesse' which can mean very good thought that winds in and out of things well (or something like that:P). I could make it 'It sings of illusions, gladness and finesse /Everything in life, even sorrow and listlessness'. I don't know if that's a little clumsy though, and I think 'finesse' sound kinda funny in the translation.:P Never mind. You can use that if you want to.:) I also translated 'Då Finns Du Hos Mig', but it didn't work out too well. My dad says it's just a hard song to translate though. I'm starting on 'Utan Dej Mitt Liv Går Vidare', too.:) I hope you like the translation, and have a great day!:)

The Chords for En Sång om Sörg och Glädje

Hello!:) I'm so sorry for not posting in almost a month. I've been busy, and I keep running out of ideas, and I also keep forgetting to think of some.:P I don't know if anyone's reading this blog, but if you are, if there's anything you can think of to put on here, please let me know.:)
A couple days ago, I was sitting down with my guitar, and I was bored of playing the same songs over and over, and I had En Sång om Sörg och Glädje, by Agnetha Fältskog in my head, so I wished I could play it. I couldn't find chords on the internet, and I've tried to find them myself before, but I just couldn't get it right. I got so bored, though, I decided I'd try it one more time, and I lowered the pitch of the song a little, so that I didn't have to play bar chords, because I don't know any, really, and I can't play them anyway.:P I was really surprised, but I found out you can play it pretty well with A, D, and G!:) I layed the chords out with the lyrics (I don't know the lyrics yet, so I pasted them from a site called Maxilyrics;)). Here's the song:

Intro: D

D                              G

Dagen må va' dyster, morgonen va' kall,

A                                           D

Om jag riktigt lyssnar, hörs en sång i alla fall,

D                               G

Genom allt det tunga, genom allt det grå,

A                                     D

Lyckas dessa toner att nå fram till mig ändå.

D                        A                D
Genom vardagen går en melodi

D                        A                 D

Gjord av två i förtrolighet och sympati,

A

Från den första våren, har den genom åren

                                                D

Troget följt oss tröstat och stått bi.

D                            A             D

När jag vill, kan jag höra melodin

A                                                  D

En sång om sorg och glädje ljuder spröd och fin,

       G                            D

Om än vardan är grå, så hörs sången ändå

      G                                                A
Det känns som om den fångar all min sorg och glädje.

D                                     G
Sången speglar drömmar, dem vi haft en gång,

A                                           D

Olust och bekymmer finns där också i vår sång,

D                           G

Där finns illusioner, glädje och finess

A                                       D
Allt som speglar livet, även vemod och tristess.

D                        A                D
Genom vardagen går en melodi

D                        A                 D

Gjord av två i förtrolighet och sympati,

A

Från den första våren, har den genom åren

                                                D

Troget följt oss tröstat och stått bi.

D                            A             D

När jag vill, kan jag höra melodin

A                                                  D

En sång om sorg och glädje ljuder spröd och fin,

       G                            D

Om än vardan är grå, så hörs sången ändå

      G                                                A
Det känns som om den fångar all min sorg och glädje.

This video has En Sång om Sörg och Glädje as well as two other songs (it's the second song), so that you know what it's meant to sound like.:) I would get one with just this song, but I've only watched this video (and I can't watch another one on my computer:P), and I know some people can't watch videos that haven't been checked.:)

 If you have a guitar, could you try it out? I think it's okay most of the way through, although changing chords in the chorus sounds a little odd, and the end of 'En sång om sorg och glädje ljuder spröd och fin' doesn't work quite right.:) I want to learn the lyrics so that I can sing it instead of humming.:P I hope it works for you.:)
