Nova
Staffan Hellstrand Lyrics

The lyrics of the song Nova by Staffan Hellstrand describe the transformation of a woman into a child, both literally and metaphorically. The singer is depicted as a woman who is capable of causing destructions, but she chooses to embrace her vulnerability and innocence. The lines "Nova glider I en Juve-trцja genom stan / Nyss var hon en kvinna / Nu дare hon bara ett barn" can be literally translated as "Nova glides through the city in a juvenile shirt / She was a woman just now / Now she is only a child." This can be interpreted as a representation of a spiritual journey towards self-discovery where the singer regresses to her child-like state to rediscover her true self.

The song also speaks of the singer's surroundings and the obstacles that she has to face. She packs her bag with things she has never had before and builds herself a shelter amidst the gray buildings. She gets a job at a white goods store in the town where she is subjected to unwanted attention and brief answers. However, the singer still believes in the power of miracles and angels who take flight to walk their own path. The lines "Jag, jag tror pе underverk / Pе дnglarna som vill ta mark / Och gе sin egen vдg" can be interpreted as a message of hope and strength to listeners who may resonate with the singer's journey towards self-acceptance.
