Tweaking the English translation
"från tid till tid" in this song has to mean "from age to age"
"from age to age" = "from one generation to the next" or "throughout the ages" or "throughout history" and implies the older passing on a tradition to the younger ones
"from time to time" = "once in a while" or "occasionally" or "sometimes"
That doesn't fit in this case.
