Warren Webb it's the swedish version of a life time of war. the swedish version is such a master piece, dont really have the same meaning as the english version. this one is very deep and meaningfull.
Translation of the Swedish version for you: I look around and see my home disappear My time at home now feels all too short Only young, barely a man when duty called me If I get to see my home again I know not Among fellow from my village so I pulled into battle And the world burned Because the war can Destroy a man I give my life, for my (home)country But who miss me? So see me as the A husband, a friend Father and son, who never comes home But who mourn me? Went out in war for Sweden, was baptized in blood Out there death is waiting, not heroism In fields where the brethren fall, you will not hear song Challenge our fates, once again Far from home Be baptized and die in battle And the world burned Because the war can Destroy a man I give my life, for my (home)country But who miss me? So see me as the A husband, a friend Father and son, who never comes home But who mourn me? And when my time has run out Who cares then? They fight on Can a soldier get a worthy end? Get to sleep Disappear And never wake Because the war can Destroy a man I give my life, for my (home)country But who miss me? So see me as the A husband, a friend Father and son, who never comes home But who mourn me?
Some parts sound VERY familiar to Swiss German, others not at all (which makes sense since the nordic languages and the swiss dialects are all variations of the germanic languages). This part for example: Och världen brann För kriget det kan Förgöra en man Jag ger mitt liv för mitt fosterland Und d Wält brännt Wil chriäg, de chan zerstöre en ma (actually you'd say "en ma zerstöre" but for the sake of 1:1 comparison) Ig gib mis lebe für mis Vatterland (u -> ü is similar to o -> ö)
A bit like German to me. Difficult language too if you don't speak it, but I think if your primary language already is a Germanic language, it shouldn't be too difficult to actually learn Swedish.
@@ShiaLaBunion5 Well, I do think it's pretty obvious that the Carolus Rex album was primarily intended to be in Swedish. If you know Swedish and listen to the lyrics it's obvious.
Sabaton, kommer aldrig att bli saknade. Efter de är borta kommer vi aldrig att sörja dem. Vi kommer att minnas dem, vi kommer att se på när de tar sin plats i himlen. Legenden kommer aldrig att dö, legenden kommer aldrig att flagna. Den kommer att växa och växa tills det inte finns en djävel som inte vet vilka Sabaton är. Fyfan vilket band, fyfan...
Died 2002 Jovisst, fast han följer upp "jag ger mitt liv för mitt fosterland" med "men vem saknar mig?". Det ger ju hela meningen en 180°-vändning, eller hur? Älskar låten, men tycker inte att det är en lämplig låt att ha som nationalsång eller liknande då den inte är patriotisk över huvud taget. Den beskriver en av Sveriges och Europas blodigaste tider, 30-åriga kriget, och hur förjävligt livet var då. Ser inte hur det är lockande, hjärtvärmande eller liknande.
Fun fact: Våran nationalsång är inte lagstadgad, utan snarare en tradition. Därför tycker jag att vi tar vårt ansvar som metal fans och sjunger denna istället för den nuvarande!
Having recently visited both the History and the Swedish Army museums in Stockholm, this song esp. sung in Swedish gives me extra goosebumps. It all gets much more relevant and connected!
Translation of the Swedish version for y'all non-swedes: I look around and see my home disappear My time at home now feels all too short Only young, barely a man when duty called me If I get to see my home again I know not Among fellow from my village so I pulled into battle And the world burned For the war can Destroy a man I give my life, for my motherland But who miss me?

Oh well. Some parts of old norse are still barely understandable for me as a Swede. But yeah no Swedish is not the language of the vikings. Norwegian and as you say Icelandic are much closer.
Sabaton vous êtes vraiment géniaux 🤘. Toutes vos chansons sont magnifiques. C'est un plaisir de vous écouter ❤️. Vous voir sur scène c'est gigantesque. Merci du fond du ❤️.👍🇨🇵🇸🇪
Jag klarar inte av denna låten utan att böla som ett småbarn. Den sammanfattar sorgen i ett krig så vackert, "men vem sörjer mig?" slår mig som en jävla snyting rätt i ansiktet.
Here's my translation that also goes well with the melody. Let me know what you think. I turn around to see my homestead fade away I wish I could have stayed there, just another day Not yet a man, though called to arms to do my part Will I see my home again, I wish with all my heart With kinsmen from my village I went out to war In a world of flames ‘Cause war surely can, devastate a man I give my life, for my motherland But who’s missing me? So see me as them the husband and friend the father and son, who’s never seen again But who mourns over me? Went out to war for Sweden, baptized in blood No gallantry awaits us, dying in the mud In fields where friends has fallen, there’ll be no songs Our fate once more we challenge, and marching on Far away from home (To be baptized and die in war) In a world of flames ‘Cause war surely can, devastate a man I give my life, for my motherland But who’s missing me? So see me as them the husband and friend the father and son, who’s never seen again But who mourns over me? And when my time is finally here Who’ll sing my song? They’re fighting on I hope to die without much fear I fall asleep, and fade away And never wake up ‘Cause war surely can, devastate a man I give my life, for my motherland But who’s missing me? So see me as them the husband and friend the father and son, who’s never seen again But who mourns over me?
Eh Can't Remember Apparently a lot of people are somehow under the misconception that it's *pro*-war. Which is absurd. People also think that it's somehow patriotic when really all it does is condemn one of the most tragic and destructive wars in European history - the 30 Years' War.
If they would just take the time to research the meaning of the Swedish lyrics of this song as well as the overall unbiased narratives of Sabaton on war in general they would know they are anti-war.
@@FCFoulCaptains The English lyrics pretty much say the same thing except phrased slightly differently so they don't have to research the Swedish lyrics
rasist för att man är stolt svensk? vet du vad begreppet rasist betyder? föreslår dig att lära dig det och sluta missbruka ordet som alla andra vänster människor gör! =D
Has man gone insane A few will remain Who'll find a way To live one more day Through decades of war It spreads like disease There's no sign of peace Religion and greed cause millions to bleed
@@pwl2866 Well, this video is three years old. Watch newer videos of their performances, Joakim sounds like a hungover bear, like really really horrible.
Som en Finne, , älskar denna sång. Mina alla föräldrar har alltid stridit för Sverige.
Jag är från Sverige men min förfader från både min mor och far var en karolin från Österbotten.
Finland å Sverige har ju varit ett land i 700 år !
För Finland och Sverige I tiden!
Länge leve Finland!
Länge leve Sverige!
Nu är vi alla i NATO. Bröder och systrar.
First time I heard this song I was nearly in tears It was so beautiful.... I don't even speak or understand Swedish

Some parts sound VERY familiar to Swiss German, others not at all (which makes sense since the nordic languages and the swiss dialects are all variations of the germanic languages).
This part for example:
Och världen brann
För kriget det kan
Förgöra en man
Jag ger mitt liv för mitt fosterland
Und d Wält brännt
Wil chriäg, de chan
zerstöre en ma (actually you'd say "en ma zerstöre" but for the sake of 1:1 comparison)
Ig gib mis lebe für mis Vatterland (u -> ü is similar to o -> ö)
A bit like German to me.

Cool!
Jag ger mitt liv, till mitt fosterland!

Bästa låten i mitt 63 åriga liv!
👍🇸🇪❤
Dagens bittra sanning i fosterlandet, måtte det vända snart!
I know ZERO Swedish and this song gets me EVERY TIME!
Am I the only one who thinks Sabaton sounds better in swedish than in english?
I agree. And the Swedish lyrics to this song, in particular, do it far more justice than the ones in the English version.
@@ShiaLaBunion5 Well, I do think it's pretty obvious that the Carolus Rex album was primarily intended to be in Swedish. If you know Swedish and listen to the lyrics it's obvious.
@@torkelsvenson6411 Heck if you are from a scandinavian country the lyrics are somewhat obvious.
No. Everyone thinks that.
I think so but I can't understand Swedish
This is one of those power ballads that are better than anything else
Älskar denna sång får tårar o gåshud ♥️
Richtig geil das Lied... Sabaton ist eine Gruppe, die die Welt nicht missen will. Absolut der Hammer! Respekt...
GREAT BAND.

Det här borde vara vår nationalsång.
DaneShady Varför? Den är inte nationalistisk, snarare motsatsen. Läs och lyssna på texten och försök förstå vad den handlar om.

Hellre denna än "Öppna Landskap" som vad jag förstår det har diskuterats att byta till. Ulf Lundell är så PK-nisse som man kan vara.
Fun fact: Våran nationalsång är inte lagstadgad, utan snarare en tradition. Därför tycker jag att vi tar vårt ansvar som metal fans och sjunger denna istället för den nuvarande!
Låten är bra men föredrar nog "Du gamla du fria" istället. :)

Får ståpäls av musiken, grymma är ni! Så känslosamt
such a beatifull language xd
damn right
not even close to old norse, Icelandic on the other hand is very close to what the vikings spoke.
You realize that you can read the icelandic sagas in the original old norse, right?
Tack så mycket! That is Thank you very much in Swedish.
Oh well. Some parts of old norse are still barely understandable for me as a Swede. But yeah no Swedish is not the language of the vikings. Norwegian and as you say Icelandic are much closer.

this is powerful. such a great and patriotic song, all hail sabaton!
Remember kids. The lead singer in this band : Joakim Broden plays the piano... in a Heavy/Power Metal band.
Out from PNG I love Sabaton much and how they play live,,they so awesome..
This gave me goosebumps. Sabaton rule!
5:19 > goosebumps
I call upon Sabaton to kindly come to England for a brief gig. Cant wait to see you rocking England.
Som vasaättling har denna låt en speciell plats i mitt hjärta.
Jag klarar inte av denna låten utan att böla som ett småbarn. Den sammanfattar sorgen i ett krig så vackert, "men vem sörjer mig?" slår mig som en jävla snyting rätt i ansiktet.
Those heartbreaking lyrics! Truly a masterpiece and a beautiful performance. Love the Swedish version of this song!
på det hela taget det kan inte råda någon tvekan om de är en liten skola till eftervärlden och ha tjänst som lärare , lära barnen att läsa Sabaton
Here's my translation that also goes well with the melody. Let me know what you think.
I turn around to see my homestead fade away
I wish I could have stayed there, just another day
Not yet a man, though called to arms to do my part
Will I see my home again, I wish with all my heart
With kinsmen from my village I went out to war
In a world of flames
‘Cause war surely can, devastate a man
I give my life, for my motherland
But who’s missing me?
So see me as them
the husband and friend
the father and son, who’s never seen again
But who mourns over me?
Went out to war for Sweden, baptized in blood
No gallantry awaits us, dying in the mud
In fields where friends has fallen, there’ll be no songs
Our fate once more we challenge, and marching on
Far away from home
(To be baptized and die in war)
In a world of flames
‘Cause war surely can, devastate a man
I give my life, for my motherland
But who’s missing me?
So see me as them
the husband and friend
the father and son, who’s never seen again
But who mourns over me?
And when my time is finally here
Who’ll sing my song?
They’re fighting on
I hope to die without much fear
I fall asleep, and fade away
And never wake up
‘Cause war surely can, devastate a man
I give my life, for my motherland
But who’s missing me?
So see me as them
the husband and friend
the father and son, who’s never seen again
But who mourns over me?
The crowd :O Fucking beautiful..
I was there, and I'm going to let you know it was a fucking blast, the people showed extreme support to the band. It was awesome!

It is was awesome to final see them play this song when I saw them in Lund.
Best song ever. Love this one. I want to learn this on the guitar so badly. :p
