National anthem
Du gamla, Du fria,
Du fjällhöga nord
Du tysta, Du glädjerika sköna!
Jag hälsar Dig, vänaste land uppå jord,
Din sol, Din himmel,
Dina ändger gröna!
Din sol, Din himmel,
Dina ändger gröna!
Du tronar på minnen från fornstora da'r
Då ärat Ditt namn flög över jorden
Jag vet att Du är
och Du blir vad Du var
Ja, jag vill leva,
jag vill dö i Norden.
Ja, jag vill leva,
jag vill dö i Norden.
