This is a song for me

[video=youtube;3W-s4pCPs5k]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3W-s4pCPs5k[/video]

What to do
Little you

I came to be on the 5. floor
My dad was crazy (A tosser)
My mom was okay
But when they drove him away, momma asked to me
What to do, little you

I went to school
for many years
send to the factory
and got an aiching soar

And then one day
the boss kicked me out
now what to do
Little you

And time went on
and I went with
I flew along
from place to place

And birds they whistled
and sang to me
where do we go
little you

But then one day
I went to the minister and said
you there, get you feet of the table
and take of your hat

man can't you see
this is all going awry

So what to do
you old crook

but he laughed and said
you, you can go to the devil
so that's what we'll do
little you

Am listening to this song; Afrika. Yes you made; Do they know it's Christmas, and USA made; We are the World. The Danes came together also, in many ways it sets of the same emotions for me as the english speaking hits do.

May be getting abit heavy here. This is our finest artist; C.V. Jørgensen, guy with the guitar. He is singing a Leonard Cohen song.

C.V. Jørgensen writes lyrics in our danish tongue, he does that better than his contemporaries.

We are life and light
we are shadows and magi
we are each others alibi
we are life and light

We are flesh and blood
we are senses we are might
we are ourselves with deathcontempt
we are flesh and blood

Life and light

We are skin and bones
we are nervous systems of old
we are dust in the mold
we are skin and bones

We are body and soul
we are dreams laid on ice
we are the lost paradise
we are body and soul

Life and light

All we walk around
searching as possessed
some find Mercy
Others find themselves

All whisper something
noone can repay
Some walk around
and kill time thats their say

We are life and light
we are riddles without words
we are pearls on a string
we are life and light

We are one and all
we are naked we are small
we are the one thats on our mind
we are one and all

All we walk around
searching as possessed
some find Mercy
Others find themselves

All whisper something
noone can repay
Some walk around
and kill time thats their say

life and light


My translation does not do it justice of course, but he is very elegant with his lyrics. They are thoughtfull, deep and precise.
 
He is accompanied by Steen Jørgensen. Lead singer in Sort Sol, I can play him without translations.
