Would love Ms. Swan's help with pronunciations. I will do a runthrough phonetically and see what I come up with and maybe she can make corrections. I am very taken with this song. It reminds me musically a bit of greensleeves and edmond fitzgerald and somehow of donegal danny but also stands for every shipwreck there ever was.... the one thing about your English version is I wish you would have a way to put the - Båt i lä! - Båt i lä! - Det är far, det är vi! - Det är far min från Smögen! Han log. -Lower the boats! -Lower the boats! -It's father! It's us! -It's father from Smögen! He smiled. - Båt i lä! sjöng --- those are among the most powerful words i have ever heard in a song..reminds me of the words in marselleise.. Formez vos bataillons...now or never...
