lyrics

SOLEN ER SÅ RØD, MOR

Solen er så rød, mor
og skoven bli'r så sort
Nu er solen død, mor
og dagen gået bort.
Ræven går derude, mor
vi låser vores gang.
Kom, sæt dig ved min side, mor
og syng en lille sang.

Himlen er så stor, mor
med klare stjerner på
Hvem monstro der bor, mor
på stjernen i det blå ?
Tror du det er drenge, mor
der kigger ned på mig ?
Og tror du de har senge, mor
og sover li'som jeg?

-

Hvorfor bli'r det nat, mor
med kold og bitter vind ?
Hør den lille kat, mor
den mjaver og vil ind!
Mågerne og ternerne
har ingen sted at bo.
hør, nu synger stjernerne,
de synger mig til ro!

English translation:

The Sun is So Red, Mum
1. Now the sun is red, mum,
the wood is getting black.
Now the sun is dead, mum,
the daytime won't be back.
No more will the fox hide, mum,
but walk through darkest time.
Come sit down at my bedside, mum,
and let me hear a rhyme!

2. My, the sky is big, mum,
with bright and shining stars!
Is there earth to dig, mum,
and is there life on Mars?
Is there there a boy's head, mum,
that looks where I might be,
and does he have a boy's bed, mum,
to sleep in just like me?

3. Now the nightfall's hat, mum,
brings darkness like before.
Listen to the cat, mum,
it's miaowing at the door!
Gulls and terns of equal right
no dwelling place has blest.
Listen to the starlit night!
From there I get my rest.

Harald Bergstedt. / English version: Arne Pedersen 1991.
