’I’m Yours’ Avedøre Gymnasium’s Lyrics
(Danish)
Vi har skrevet en sang for vi ku' ikke la' være
De andre synger synger nok om en hel masse kager
Vi valgte den melodi
Som alle ka' li'
vi kommer fra 2.b
og vi er så søde
for det er os og ik' jer der kan sig' rød grød med fløde
og selvom i ik' forstår, så tror vi det går.
(We’ve written a song ’cause we felt we just had to.
The others can sing about cake till they’re blue.
We chose this song
So you can all sing along.
We’re from 2b
And we’re sweet, you see.
Our Danish tongue twisters can twist your tongue tight,
But non-Danes, stay cool – it’ll all be alright!)
(Urdu)
Ab mujhe koi shaqq nahi..
ab nahi, ab nahi.
chhaii hai be-chaini
main hoon tumhari
(But I won't hesitate
no more, no more,
it cannot wait
I'm yours)
(French)
Ce que j’aime c’est manger
Mais surtout bouffer gâteau
Mange et tu trouveras l’amour, l’amour
On vient de différents pays et endroit
Mais ce qu’on a ensemble
C’est l’amour pour les gâteaux, gâteau oooh
(The thing I love, is to eat
But especially munching cake
Eat and you’ll find love, love
We come from different countries and places
But what we got in common
Is the love for cake)
(English)
We would like to sing about the Danish food traditions
My mum is in the kitchen, she has very big ambitions
She cooks everything
And now she starts to siiiing
I cook roasted pork with potatoes and brown gravy
And Rice pudding is very good for a new born baby
But my man messed up the food
And now we have to get it glued
(Bosnian) Necu vise dvomitse, necu, necu
nemogu vise cekati, ja sam tvoj
( I won’t hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I’m yours)
(Farsi)
Fektreta was ko, wa ma waare sailko
Planaayeta was ko wa rukhsat asti
Dar qalbet sailko wa miaafi eshq eshq eshq eshq
Musiqi ami daqara beshnaw ke mardom rakhs wa bait mekhaanan
Maa yak faamile buzork astem
Wa allah ejaasaye maa ast ke baashem dost dost dost dost
(English translation:
Well open up your mind and see like me
open up your plans and damn you're free
look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing
We're just one big family
And it's our godforsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved)
