Translated Song (Under The Stars In The Sky)

Rasmus Seebach is a popular Danish singer. In a tribute to his late father, he sings a song that his father made famous. It is titled Under The Stars In The Sky. Here are the Danish lyrics and my translation:

Under Stjernerne På Himlen

Jeg sætter mig på kanten af din seng
Og du ler til mig.
Verden svinder ind til ingenting
Når jeg ser på dig.
Du ligger lige så musestille
Og virker ubeskriveligt lille
Imellem dine mange sjove dyr.
Men i drømmelegen
Finder vi to vejen
Ud mod nye eventyr.

Under stjernerne på himlen
Sejler du med mig.
Luk nu stille dine øjne,
Så er vi på vej.
Vi sejler over vandet
Og ind i drømmelandet,
Du og jeg.

Og hvis du bliver skræmt af vinden,
Så kysser jeg dig blidt på kinden,
Hvor du end er i fantasien
Vil jeg altid være
Her hos dig, min kære
Læg nu trygt din hånd i min.

Under stjernerne på himlen
Sejler du med mig.
Luk nu stille dine øjne,
Så er vi på vej.
Vi sejler over vandet
Og ind i drømmelandet,
Du og jeg,
Drømmelandet, du og jeg.

Under The Stars In The Sky

I sit on the edge of your bed
And you laugh at me.
The world shrinks into nothing
When I look at you.
You just lie quiet like a mouse
And seem indescribably small
Among your many funny animals.
But in the game of dreams
We both find the way
Out towards new adventures.

Under the stars in the sky
You sail with me.
Now quietly close your eyes,
Then we're on our way.
We sail over the water
And into the land of dreams,
You and I.

And if you get scared of the wind,
Then I'll kiss you gently on the cheek.
Wherever you are in the fantasy
I will always be here with you, my dear.
Now safely place your hand in mine.

Under the stars in the sky
You sail with me.
Now quietly close your eyes,
Then we're on our way.
We sail over the water
And into the land of dreams,
You and I,
The land of dreams, you and I.
