OriginalVersione svedese di Roland von Malmborg
WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO THE RAIN?BARA LITE REGN
Just a little rain falling all around
The grass lifts its head to the heavenly sound
Just a little rain, just a little rain
What have they done to the rain
Bara lite regn, ifrån skyar grå.
Gräset sträcker sej vid dess ljud som på tå.
Bara lite regn, bara lite regn.
Vad har vi gjort med vårt regn?
Just a little boy standing in the rain
The gentle rain that falls for years
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain
Blott ett litet barn uti regnet står.
Det stilla regn som faller år från år.
Men barnet försvinner och gräset förgår.
Och kvar – bara regnets hjälplösa gråt.
Just a little breeze out of the sky
The leaves nod their head as the breeze blows by
Just a little breeze with some smoke in its eye
What have they done to the rain
Bara lite vind när mörkret faller på.
Träden fäller löv, och löven blir grå.
Bara lite vind med rök i var vrå.
Vad har vi gjort med vårt regn?
Just a little boy standing in the rain
The gentle rain that falls for years
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain
What have they done to the rain?
Blott ett litet barn uti regnet står.
Det stilla regn som faller år från år.
Men barnet försvinner och gräset förgår.
Och kvar – bara regnets hjälplösa gråt.
