“Kristallen den fina“ (Like Crystal that's gleaming) - swedish folk song performed by male choir Orphei Drängar. The intro is a Herding call played on cow horn by Pelle Jakobsson. Art by Carl Larsson (1853-1919) I thank the singers! and hope they won't mind my video :) The beautiful lyrics of this song hold many old expressions hard to translate, this translation I found on the web: As the crystal shines in the light of the sun and the stars twinkle in the sky. So this girl, outstanding in virtue, shines, this girl in our village. My friend, my friend and my flower of love! Oh if only we could be together. And you would be my love and I your lover. You most noble rose and golden chest of treasure. And if I did travel to the end of the world my heart would cry to you. And if I did travel to the end of the world my heart would cry to you. To you my friend and my flower of love ...
