From the frozen north they came Fought for founding fatherÂŽs claim It was then, their tale, began
Trace their roots from 16 strong
By the king where they belong En tid Av Krig
Wherever he goes, near or far, they are close For the King of Sweden they lay down their lives For the Swedish crown they stand By the king, at his command 500 years for the fatherland Marching across the belt Crushing blow at Narva dealt Livgardet our Royal Guard
Sworn protectors of the throne Royal doctrine set in stone For the crown, you shall give your life
By traditions from the past
Swedish soldiers stand steadfast I frid Och i strid
And if one should fall, yet another, heeds the call For king and for country they lay down their lives For the Swedish crown they stand By the king, at his command 500 years for the fatherland Marching across the belt Crushing blow at Narva dealt Livgardet our Royal Guard
För Sverige i tiden Dit konungen gÄr De gör vad som synes omöjligt, vad Àn framtiden spÄr
Wherever he goes, near or far, they are close For the King of Sweden they lay down their lives Still for the crown they stand By the king, at his command 500 years for the fatherland Marching across the belt Crushing blow at Narva dealt Livgardet our Royal Guard
