Helen Sjöholm uppträder på Allsång med Skansen 2000. Det här är en låt från musikalen Kristina Från Duvemåla av Benny Andersson och Björn Ulvaeus. Tack till Rosa Mannen som rippade denna video!
Anytime I watch this I feel better. Also feel I am so lucky to be alive with Helen on this earth. She always seems to have so much joy when she performs. A true angel. Mom and got to see her in 2017. What an experience. Thank you Helen . Brogan from Seattle.
you prolly dont care but if you guys are bored like me during the covid times you can watch all the latest series on Instaflixxer. Have been streaming with my girlfriend these days xD
that was incredible! I loved hearing the little part at the start (that gets repeated later several times) with just one syllable -- no lyrics. I have the 3 CDs of Kristina, but that part is missing. Thanks!
Liten. No I did a beginners course some years back and always intended to continue but as yet I regret that I have not. Most of what I understand is with the help of Google Translate and before that I used the booklet from the KFD pack of CDs and a Swedish dictionary. I love the sound of the language though and am very glad to have discovered, like others, just how good Helen Sjöholm can sing :-)
"His feet are light, for now he wanders the path to his beloved. And soon he is by 'Seven Farmers Gate' I can catch a glimpse his white collar [now]. Soon I'll walk with his shoulder against my cheek here in the Duvemåla Meadows..."
If it was recorded at all there's always a chance of it leaking out. I never saw it either... but then again, I live in the USA, so I probably wouldn't have seen it anyway even if I had wanted to at the time.
"det var helen sjöholm som sjöng den och låten heter " du måste finnas" den är från musikalen kristina från duvemåla" Det är verkligen det bästa hon har sjungit!
A translation? "After leaving [the farmstead] Korpamoen, he takes the path towards Bökevara. He then soon sees the fork in the road to Bidalite; -it's just half a mile. He hardly hears the sound from the cows bells down there at Еskеlen's point [grazing]. The hay-carts always leaves behind hay and dust there in trees and thickets. Over gates and fences, he has swung himself, now he is near... His feet are light now, for he wanders the path to his beloved..." [part 2 to follow]
"By now he has behind him Ekerby Farm, where they dance on Saturday night [sound of fiddles], and when he has passed Еleberg, he sees Kråkesjön's [the Crow Lake] dark waters. At Krysseboda's summery pasture he sees fields of lilies of the valley in bloom, and the birch forests there carry new promise [new, green leaves]. In the forest there, it is bright sunlight still in the late afternoon. Over gates and fences he has swung himself, now he is near... "
