Leïla

Here is the story of Leïla
That happened far away over there
In the desert of the Nordic snows
She was abandoned by her parents
Taken in by Jampo the Lapp
She grew up right by his side
Taken in by Jampo the Lapp
She grew up right by his side
And I want her in my arms
In a very very cold setting
A Lapp woman in a sled
Slipping into the woods
She is yours, Leïla
This girl with delicate charm
In the icy snow-covered mountains
He taught her the Lapp way of life
The most beautiful girl in the region
It was Leïla's sixteenth birthday
So Jampo decided
He introduced her to a handsome Lapp
But she did not want him
Feeling too young for life
And I want her in my arms
In a very very cold setting
A Lapp woman in a sled
Slipping into the woods
She is yours, Leïla
This girl with delicate charm... yes, Magdalena, I want to say hello to my mom and dad and my big brother, and to my grandma in Skane and all the relatives and all my friends.
In her canoe she descended
All the rapids of the country
Without caring about all the dangers
Became an emancipated Lapp woman
Without caring about what people would say
Became the queen of all the Lapps
And that's how Leïla
Became the legend of a very cold country
