Kingdom of Sweden Patriotic Song - "Atenarnes Sång"

"Atenarnes Sång" - (English: War Song of Tyrtaeus)

♫ Glorious is death, when bravely in the foremost line you fall,
Fall for your country, die for your city and your home.
Therefore, with rapture fight to protect Father Earth!
Hasten to sacrifice yourself with joy, the life of future generations!
Forward our youth, forward in dense, unwavering lines!
Never a feeling of fright, never a thought of flight.

Shame and dishonor hit the band, when in the foremost line
The youngling watch the old man bleed out and die.
This burden depend upon our youth, while he still
Innocently wear the flowers of Spring in his hair.
Handsome for women, brave for men may he appear in life;
Still fair in his death, fallen in the midst of the slaughter. ♫
