Agnetha Fältskog (ABBA) : Sov got min Iilla vän (1970) Sleep Well My Little One

Tender, touching lyrics written by Agnetha in this beautiful song from Agnetha's 1970 album "Som Jag Är" (This Is Who I Am)
Produced by Bjorn Ulvaeus & Little Gerhard

Sov Gott Min Lilla Vän (Sleep Well My Little One)

En liten hand i min,
* A little hand in mine,
Den är mjuk din varma kind.
* Your soft cheek feels warm .
Du har haft en rolig dag
*You have had a lovely day
Nu bör du kanske sova.
* Now its time for sleep.
Mitt barn jag älskar dig,
*My child, I love you so,
Du betyder allt för mig.
* You are everything to me.
Jag skall vagga dig till sömns
* I shall rock you to sleep
Och alltid finnas nära dig.
* And always be near you.
En saga först
* A story first,
Du har så många frågor.
*You have so many questions.
Det finns så mycket
*There is so much
Som du ej kan förstå.
*That you can't yet understand.
En gång när du blir stor,
*One day when you are older,
Ska du se att på vår jord
* You will see in our world
Finns det barn som lider så.
* that there are children who suffer so.
Sånt kan du ännu ej förstå.
*This you still cant yet understand.
Sov Gott Min Vän
* Sleep well my love
Du har så många frågor.
* You have so many questions.
Det finns så mycket Som du ej kan förstå.
*There are many things you still cant understand.
Sov gott min lilla vän.
* Sleep well, my little one.
Kyss din mor godnatt och känn
* Kiss your mother goodnight And can't
Att jag lever blott för dig
* you feel that I live only for you
Du ska för alltid va hos mig.
*You shall for all time, be with me

My daddy had only a few albums, one of these albums was Frank Pourcel, greatest hits.

It's the first time I hear a vocal rendition of this song, and it is my my beloved Agnetha.

Talkin' about a surprise !

Love the first pic of Agnetha sleeping.  Makes me want to cuddle up right next to her.

Beautiful song. This explains why she always said she wanted to be with her kids instead of touring all the time.

Agnetha shows off her beautiful voice here, too.

Nice video, Shay.

What a lovely song and it seems as though it fits in with the Christmas theme.

Thanks for sharing!
