Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
När jag farit till landet långt bort
Och ej längre finns kvar
Vem ger dig mod
När du tvivlar och ej längre känner
Den kraft som du har
Ge din själ stilla ro
Att du vet var din inre längtan bor
Ditt hjärta blommar
Känn doften av liv
Du är större än du nånsin tror
Ge din själ stilla ro
Vandra vill om du tror
Att du vet var din inre längtan bor
Ditt hjärta blommar
Känn doften av liv
Du är större än du nånsin tror
Vem tröstar dig
Då ditt inre är fyllt av en sorg
Som du inte rår på
Vem lyssnar till dig
När bruset från livet är högre
Än du vill förstå
Ge din själ stilla ro
Vandra vill om du tror
Att du vet var din inre längtan bor
Ditt hjärta blommar
Känn doften av liv
Du är större än du nånsin tror
Ditt hjärta blommar
Känn doften av liv
Du är större än du nånsin tror

The chorus of the song reinforces this message by telling the listener to find stillness within themselves and to trust their own desires and dreams. It encourages the listener to follow their own path and to believe that they are capable of achieving great things, even when they doubt themselves.

Overall, "Stilla ro och nära" is a beautiful and inspiring song that encourages listeners to find peace and inner strength in moments of doubt and loneliness.

This song "... Who loves you when I no longer exist? Smell the aroma of life - You are stronger than you ever think ...." was listened to by myself and my soul mate, best friend I have ever had, on 12-09-2018. Little did I know that only a few days later he would pass away ... lost forever. I pay a tribute to him, my beloved friend in these days when commemorating his last few days ... ...
