Bjældeklang
Energy Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Vinteren er så kort
Vi må bruge hvert minut
Sneen smelter bort
Og så det hele slut
Nu er jorden hvid
Og kanen den er klar
Så der altså ingen tid til nogen dikkedar
Bjældeklang, bjældeklang over vej og sti

Kan man høre vintervejrets kendingsmelodi (hey)
Bjældeklang, bjældeklang gennem mark og skov
Far vi er på kanetur, ihh hvor er det sjovt
Over stok og sten
Går det rask afsted
Lotte′s lange ben
Kan ikke følge med
Sneen falder tæt
Aftenen sunder til
Vi er blevet trætte og nu skal det hjemad gå
Bjældeklang, bjældeklang over vej og sti
Kan man høre vintervejrets kendingsmelodi (hey)
Bjældeklang, bjældeklang sød og let musik
Fylder vores kanetur med yndig romantik
Der er sne, der er kager, der er mange folk der bager
For når det er jul skal der hygges det er klart
Det bobler indeni jeg bli'r fuld af energy
Når julefesten starter er jeg altid fuld af fart
Og også selvom mor og far de ikke fatter bjældeklang
Så ved de godt hvordan det lyder i en rigtig julesang
Nu er det december synes I ik′ det er cool?
Så op med jeres hænder kom nu, det er jul
Bjældeklang, bjældeklang over vej og sti
Kan man høre vintervejrets kendingsmelodi (hey)
Bjældeklang, bjældeklang gennem mark og skov
Far vi er på kanetur, ihh hvor er det sjovt
Bjældeklang, bjældeklang over vej og sti
Kan man høre vintervejrets kendingsmelodi (hey)

Bjældeklang, bjældeklang gennem mark og skov
Far vi er på kanetur, ihh hvor er det sjovt

Vinteren er så kort
The winter is short and fleeting

Vi må bruge hvert minut
We must make the most of every minute

Sneen smelter bort
The snow is melting away

Og så det hele slut
And then it's all over

Nu er jorden hvid
Now the ground is white

Og kanen den er klar
And the sled is ready

So there's no time for any nonsense

Bjældeklang, bjældeklang gennem mark og skov
Jingle, jingle through field and forest

Far vi er på kanetur, ihh hvor er det sjovt
Dad, we're on a sleigh ride, oh how fun it is

Over stok og sten

There is snow, there are cakes, many people are baking

For når det er jul skal der hygges det er klart
Because when it's Christmas, it's time for coziness, that's clear

Det bobler indeni jeg bli'r fuld af energy
It bubbles inside me, I become full of energy

Når julefesten starter er jeg altid fuld af fart
When the Christmas party starts, I'm always full of speed

Og også selvom mor og far de ikke fatter bjældeklang
And even though mom and dad don't get jingle bells

Så ved de godt hvordan det lyder i en rigtig julesang
They still know how it sounds in a real Christmas song

Nu er det december synes I ik′ det er cool?
Now it's December, don't you think it's cool?

Så op med jeres hænder kom nu, det er jul
So raise your hands now, it's Christmas
