Halvdan Sivertsen — Sommerfugl i vinterland - English Translation

[Vers 1] I saw you yesterday on the street, when the city laid cold and big I saw that you were new in life, i saw you were new in the north And your mother was carrying a suitcase, with everything she owned in And you went carrying her dream, of someday becoming free [Chorus] And you gave me a smile Butterfly in winterland No one can take from you The colors you showed me Oh, must the dream you carry become true Butterfly in winterland [Vers 2] And your mother carriеs the memories, of еverything she left She doesn't know if she will meet again, him that they took a night Now she is holding your hand, making you warm and nice She hopes you are welcome here, so the scars will someday heal [Chorus] And you gave me a smile Butterfly in winterland No one can take from you The colors you showed me Oh, must the dream you carry become true Butterfly in winterland [Vers 3] I hope we recieve you, i hope you don't have to freeze I know you can give us color, and laughter and life and light I saw you yesterday on the street, when the city laid cold and big I saw you were new in life, i saw you were new in the north [Chrus] And you gave me a smile Butterfly in winterland No one can take from you The colors you showed me Oh, must the dream you carry become true Butterfly in winterland
