Man snubler i de samme steinene
One stumbles on the same stones
og kaller det erfaring
and calls it experience
Og når man endelig skjønner noe
And when one finally understands something
har livet skiftet retning
life has changed direction
Man strever etter mer
One strives for more
og glemmer det man har
and forgets what one has
Først når noe glipper bort
Only when something slips away
ser man hvor verdifullt det var
does one see how valuable it was
Man jager etter lykken
One chases after happiness
som om den var på salg
as if it were on sale
Og glemmer midt i alt som skjer
And forgets in the midst of everything that happens
at livet aldri følger noen plan
that life never follows a plan
For livet er slik, det må tas godt vare på
Because life is like this, it must be taken good care of
Det går så fort forbi
It passes so quickly
mens man venter på det store
while one waits for the big things
Man må holde fast i øyeblikket mens man har det
One must hold on to the moment while one has it
og være glad for det man fikk
and be happy for what one received
For livet er slik, det må få være som det er
Because life is like this, it must be allowed to be as it is
Ingenting varer evig
Nothing lasts forever
Og kanskje er det nettopp det som gjør det så verdifullt
And perhaps that is precisely what makes it so valuable
at det aldri kommer med noen garanti
that it never comes with any guarantee
For ingen kommer herfra
For no one leaves here
med svar på alt som skjer
with answers to everything that happens
Men kanskje er det nok å leve
But perhaps it is enough to live
og være glad for at man er her
and be glad that one is here
For livet er slik, det må tas godt vare på
Because life is like this, it must be taken good care of
Det går så fort forbi
It passes so quickly
og ingen vet hvor lenge
and no one knows for how long
Så hold fast i alle øyeblikkene mens de finnes
So hold on to all the moments while they exist
og vær glad for det man fikk
and be happy for what one received
For livet er slik, det må få være som det er
Because life is like this, it must be allowed to be as it is
Ingenting varer evig
Nothing lasts forever
Og kanskje er det nettopp det som gjør det så verdifullt
And perhaps that is precisely what makes it so valuable
at det aldri kommer med noen garanti
that it never comes with any guarantee
At det aldri kommer med noen garanti
That it never comes with any guarantee
Ingen garanti ...
No guarantee ...
bare livet som det ble.
just life as it became.
