Irene
I første klasse mødte jeg dig
In first grade I met you
Og verden blev lidt større den dag
And the world became a little bigger that day
To små veninder side om side
Two little friends side by side
Med smil og drømme på vores vej
With smiles and dreams on our way
Årene gik men du blev her
Years passed but you stayed here
Min bedste veninde min trygge ro
My best friend, my safe calm
Du er så stærk og kærlig
You are so strong and loving
Nede på jorden som kun du kan bo
Down to earth as only you can be
Irene du er der altid
Irene, you are always there
Når Mit hjerte har brug for svar
When my heart needs answers
Irene jeg vil altid elske dig for den du er
Irene, I will always love you for who you are
Min bedste veninde mit lys mit nær
My best friend, my light, my closeness
Vi rejste ned til sydens sol
We traveled down to the southern sun
Med varme dage og sand ved vand
With warm days and sand by the water
Vi havde tiden for os selv
We had time to ourselves
Og holdt fast i hinandens hånd
And held onto each other's hand
Og når natten blev stille og lang
And when the night became quiet and long
Kunne vi blive siddende og snakke
We could sit and talk
Vi grinede til tårerne kom
We laughed until tears came
Og delte det der kunne gøre ondt
And shared what could hurt
For du har altid set mig som jeg er
Because you have always seen me as I am
Og aldrig bedt mig at være en anden
And never asked me to be someone else
Du står ved min side når livet er svært
You stand by my side when life is difficult
Og rækker mig din hånd
And reach me your hand
Når glæden kommer deler vi den
When joy comes, we share it
Når sorgen banker på står vi tæt
When sorrow knocks, we stand close
Det er sådan et venskab skal føles
That's how a friendship should feel
Ærligt varmt og aldrig glemt
Honest, warm, and never forgotten
Fra 1 klasse og til i dag
From 1st grade until today
Har du været en del af mit liv
You have been a part of my life
Og jeg vil aldrig glemme hver en latter
And I will never forget every laugh
Og al den kærlighed du giver mig
And all the love you give me
Så her er mit løfte til dig
So here is my promise to you
At jeg også vil være der
That I will also be there
For min bedste veninde Irene
For my best friend Irene
Jeg Elsker dig præcis som du er
I love you exactly as you are
