As Greek moving to Sweden and know Swedish I do not think other countries realize how hard life in this country has been with poverty, famine and darkness. Every Swedish born has so much sadness inside but still hope today we read how great everything is in Sweden and all the Nordic countries but man how they have worked their bones of to get were they are. For me as a born Greek with a warm climate, light and sun and plenty of food I hope that the rest of the world living in better countires what these Nordic people have had to sacrifice compared to most other people and still so many hate them just because they are blue eyed and blond it is ridiculous and frankly a bit racist, Most people would not be able to endure what the Nordic people have had to suffer when the rest of the world were rich and happy. Me as a southerner with all good things given to me by birth is starting to understand why these Nordic people are so protective about there culture and hard work ethics which they are world famous for everyone wants to employ a Swed,.

The music was written by Gunnar Turesson (1906-2001). In the 1980's, when he was an old man, I heard him sing the song himself, while playing it on lute. Afterwards I went to the stage to talk with him, and he was so glad that a young man like me liked his music, so he invited me to his room backstage, where I talked with him for two hours! Gunnar Turesson was married to the sister of the poet Dan Andersson (1888-1920), who wrote the lyrics of this song.

Amazing tnx guys

This is what culture should be all about - sharing and enjoying.

I cry too when I hear this song. It is about a mans longing for a future relation with the woman of his dreams. The song was written by Dan Anderson who worked in the forrests of Sweden making coal. He spent a lot of time lonely and wrote poems about it and some have gotten music to them. This is his most famous song and it has all the elements of a Swedish folk song. Mostly the melancholy that is significant of Swedish musik. Maybe a reason to why the Swedes love this song is that more than 50% of our population lives alone. Sofias voice really tells you about the feeling of longing and your tears is proof that you don`t have to understand the words to know the feeling of the song.

@memoblom2112

41% of the population in Sweden lives alone according to SCB. What is interesting though is that if you look at the statistics Sweden and Scandinavia are the countries in the world were people feel less lonely then anywhere else. Its usually explained with that the Scandinavian countries have (comparatively) strong welfare-systems which means that for an example many more women can leave abusive/violent relationships and choose to live by themselves instead and choose which people they want to have in their life. . But also for an example that all older people have the right to get elderly care which means that someone comes home to them and help them everyday, talk to them etc. In most other countries elderly that do not have families/have bad relationships with their families becomes very lonely in a lot of cases. . We also move out of our parents house on average when we are 19 in Sweden, and today most young people wants to live by themselves for a while to feel independent/like grown ups☺️, so a lot of the single households consists of very young people. (Whilst in Italy for an example the average age for moving out of home is 30. And in many countries people can not afford to move out before they get married - and it can also still be seen as strange in some cultures if a woman lives by herself.) . Many people love living by themselves (-but has a lot of good friends/relationships with their families etc-) so the number of single-households in a country doesnt say anything about the number of people that feel lonely/not lonely in that country. . I think the melancholy in Swedish songs, which is a very old tradition, has a lot to do with the nature here with vast forrests and isolated places - especially back in the day. And theres something universal too of course about a love song of this kind, a song about longing for someone❤

Hi, just to clarify. I am certain it should have read “that Anderson worked in the forests of Sweden making CHARCOAL”

Swedish guy here. I found a translation into english if you are interested in what the song is about. This is a poetic translation rather than a word-for-word one, so it works pretty good to sing if you would like to try 🙂. I’m waiting by my log-fire while the hours gently wander, while the stars all are roaming and nights come and go. I’m waiting for a woman who comes from far yonder - the dearest one, the dearest one with blue eyes aglow. I thought of a roaming and snow-covered flower and dreamt of a mocking laugh trembling and slight, Imagined my dearest came here to my bower through the forest, over moorland one snow-laden night. Glad-hearted I’d bear in my arms this my dream-love through low brushwood to where my small cabin lies near, and cry out rejoicing to my at last seen-love: Oh, welcome, you awaited these lonely long years! ’m waiting at my coal-stack while the hours stray and wander, while the forests are singing and clouds come and go. I’m waiting for a woman who roams from far yonder - the dearest one, the dearest one with blue eyes aglow.

Such a beautiful reaction. The language of music is universal. Love from Sweden!!

This is typical Swedish folk music in the Swedish song tradition, what you get is a touch of the Swedish melancholy. We are so used to it and how it sounds so we are not as affected but it feels at home and Swedish.

You are so sweet. I think you have been a swede in your previous life.

I'm swedish born and raised. I might be blond and have blue eyes, but that does not mean it's been easy. My mother was a single mother with two kids, she could not work because of her illness. So she lived on a small budget. I will never forget one night that she craved chocholate. The one she wanted was 2 american dollars. But ofc, me as a 7 year old wanted some candy too. So she could not buy what she wanted. Instead, she got a smaller chocholate just so she could buy me and my brother something. She cryed that night. So even though Sweden is a country with many positive things and benifits, it does not mean it's easy for all of us. We still have homeless, we still have family's who can't feed their kids. It's sad, but no matter where you are on this earth, people will struggle.

Thank you SO much for your beautiful and heartful reaction on this beautiful, Swedish song.

This song is originally written by Dan Andersson born 1888, a swedish poet and author who died in 1920 by cyanide poisoning at a hotel who was using it to fight bed bugs. I still listen to his songs to this day, and one of the best is this "Jag väntar vid min mila", "Helgdagskväll i timmerkojan". But that is one of the best live performances of his work I have ever heard I also got emotional when I heard -"I wait by my log fire while the hours wander, while the stars wanders as the nights pass. I wait for this woman who roams on many wide paths..." it is hard to translate Swedish many words lost in translation. But that is what this song is about basically. My father had the same occupation as Dan Andersson when he was young and made coal in the dark, cold and windy forest of Sweden, they made coal in charcoal kiln´s and everybody had to help guard the kiln so it did not take fire even children had to work from that they was 5 - 7 years old at that time. From my dad I heard of Dan Andersson and still listens to his song and reading the poems he left us, today his songs reminds me of my father and the story´s he used to tell us about when he was guarding the charcoal kiln.

❤❤❤ I love all my Swedish folksongs ❤❤❤🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪

This song and reaction show how we can speak to each other across cultures through music. There it's heart to heart - nothing getting in the way. Thank you.

This time you dug deep into the soul of Sweden, with Sofia Karlsson singing a poem written by Dan Andersson. This type of melancolic feeling has been in the heart of so much of swedish music and poetry for decades, well centuries. Listen to Jonna Jinton´s version of our national anthem "Du gamla du fria" and you might get the full grip of the atmosphere. Love your reactions!

A very beautiful song. It isn't actually a traditional folk song though, but a poem written in 1915 by the swedish poet Dan Andersson and later made into a song. This version with Sofia Karlsson is definitly folk music inspired and Sofia definitly has a beautiful voice. She also sings in a more modern, folk inspired fashion, which is very beautiful but not fully traditional. But swedish folk music is a pretty wide category which has a lot of songs that are just as beautiful or even more beautiful than this. And of course, there is a lot of pretty boring songs as well. There's a large treasure of music out there to discover for anyone who is interested.

I wanted to happily carry my dream in my arms through the thicket over there where my hut stands, and raise a jubilant cry to the dear one: "Welcome you, who have been waiting for lonely years." I wait at my mile while the hours suffer while the woods sing and the clouds walk. I am waiting for a wanderer from far-away paths - the dearest, the dearest, with blue eyes.

Sofia is a fantastic lady, equally as proficient on guitar, as on violin, and in this case, the greek bouzouki. She has sung many quite melancholic songs with its roots in Swedish folk music and poetry. It's a poem by one of the most beloved poets in Sweden from the early 20th century. It's about a man, lonely, guarding his charcoal kiln, dreaming of his dearest beloved girl. Dan Andersson died an untimely death in 1920, only 32 years old, by accidental poisoning at a hotel room in Stockholm, after it had been treated with pesticides.. Sofia Karlsson and her musician friends are well worth exploring!

This is a Dan Andersson lyric. Its beautifull in every way. My family from my fathers side is from Sweden and Finland, my mothers side is from Stockholm, Solna from hundreds of years. My mother and father read Dan Andresson poems for me as a child. You are so good looking btw.

The song makes me cry.

You are amazing ❤🇸🇪

Starr seemes super sweet.

Dan Andersson didn't write many happy poems. A lot of them were about loneliness, darkness, death, poverty, starvation and madness. His poem "Benkvarnen" (The bonemill) hit me hard. But once in a while he wrote hopeful poems like this one and "Tiggaren från Luossa" (the begger from Luossa) and a few others. And Sofia's voice is doing a great job giving life to Dan's words.
