@TMovieKlip Actually it wasn't translated by Nephew. It was translated by Kristian Schultz Petersen, and he lended Nephew the translation to make a song out of it. Nephew choosed some of the verses and made these amazing lyrics :-) Not that it matters too much, but I think that Schultz Petersen should get his credits for translating this great poem of 3432 lines :-)

Actually, Grundtvig's work has been translated in its entirety is by Kristian Schultz Pedersen, but the ingenious excerpt used as lyrics for the song has been selected by Simon Kvamm. :-)
