“I ett hav finns det mycket vatten”

In an ocean, there is a lot of water

“Men en stormnatt kan du höra nån som ropar: Hej hå! Ifrån havets djup det kommer, och det låter så: Hej hå! Hej hå!”

But on a stormy night you can hear someone calling: Hey ho! From the ocean depths ["the sea's depth(s)" – intuitively "depth," though the plural is identical – singular is idiomatic in "dras ner i djupet" (be pulled into the depths [depth]), for example] it comes, and it sounds like that: Hey ho! Hey ho! [Or "and it sounds like so," but that is an idiomatic way of saying "and it sounds like that," whereas "and it sounds like this" would normally be put as "och det låter så här." The official lyrics have a colon.]

“Sommar, sommar och sol. Havet och vinden, och doft av kaprifol. Sommar, sommar och sol. En himmel så blå som viol.”

Summer, summer and sun. The sea and the wind, and scent of honeysuckle. Summer, summer and sun. A sky as blue as violet [flower].
