• Translation

Jeg har en søn på to
Med store, lyse krøller
Jeg har en dreng på tre
Med store, brune øjne
Jamen, jeg har bare én mer' end du har
Okay, måske, men ingen er bedre end min
For han er bare helt speciel
Hvis jeg må si' det selv

Krøller eller ej, vi elsker vores børn
Brune øjne eller ej, I elsker jeres børn
For én ting er givet
Vi håber alle på at de må få de ting, de ønsker sig
Om de' fire eller tres, har krøller eller ej

For én ting er givet
Vi håber alle på at de må få de ting, de ønsker sig
Om de' fire eller tres, har krøller eller ej

Længe leve alle børn
Lyse krøller eller ej, vi elsker vores børn
Brune øjne eller ej, I elsker jeres børn
For én ting er givet
Vi håber alle på at de må få de ting, de ønsker sig
Om de' fire eller tres, har krøller eller ej

(Længe leve børn)
(Om de har krøller eller ej)

I have a two year old son
With big, blond curls
I have a three year old boy
With big, brown eyes
But I've got one more than you
OK, perhaps, but none is better than mine
For he's very special
If I do say so myself

Curly hair or not, we love our children
Brown eyes or not, you love your children
For one thing is certain
We all hope that they'll get the things they want
Whether they're four or sixty, have curly hair or not

For one thing is certain
We all hope that they'll get the things they want
Whether they're four or sixty, have curly hair or not

Long live all children
Blond curls or not, we love our children
Brown eyes or not, you love your children
For one thing is certain
We all hope that they'll get the things they want
Whether they're four or sixty, have curly hair or not

(Long live children)
(Whether they have curly hair or not)
