Sverddans Lyrics

Har kommet vinterens time,
når ulven og bjørnen skal dø;
riv vekk det skinnet, en grime,
tramp på det, si vinter; adjø!

Vinterånd, du skal dø!
Vinterånd, i snøen blø!
Vinterånd, jeg er sommer!
Vinterånd, og jeg kommer!

Det blir ild og røyk, skrik og skrål;
seidmannen løper gjennom skoven.
Anvend løv og sot, sverd og stål.
Snart skinner solen fra oven.

Vinterånd, du skal dø!
Vinterånd, i snøen blø!
Vinterånd, jeg er sommer!
Vinterånd, og jeg kommer!

Det blir ild og røyk, skrik og skrål;
seidmannen løper gjennom skoven.
Anvend løv og sot, sverd og stål.
Snart skinner solen fra oven.

Vinterånd, du skal dø!
Vinterånd, i snøen blø!
Vinterånd, jeg er sommer!
Vinterånd, og jeg kommer!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

English:

Sword Dance

The hour of winter has come, when the wolf and the bear shall die; tear down the fur, a mask, trample it, say winter; adieu!

Winter spirit, you shall die! Winter spirit, bleed in the snow! Winter spirti, I am summer! Winter spirit, and I am coming!

Fire and smoke, screams and noise; the sorcerer runs through the forest. Use leaves and soot, sword and steel. Soon the sun will shine from above.

Winter spirit, you shall die! Winter spirit, bleed in the snow! Winter spirti, I am summer! Winter spirit, and I am coming!

Fire and smoke, screams and noise; the sorcerer runs through the forest. Use leaves and soot, sword and steel. Soon the sun will shine from above.

Winter spirit, you shall die! Winter spirit, bleed in the snow! Winter spirti, I am summer! Winter spirit, and I am coming!
