For din skyld

This is the studio version. The live version is slightly different (some words repeated/omitted/replaced).

For din skyld	For your sake
For din skyld bru'r jeg brusende skørter	For your sake I wear rustling skirts
For din skyld er jeg pigelig, sart og koket	For your sake I'm girlish, sensitive and coy
For din skyld skal jeg hver gang erobres	For your sake I have to be conquered every time
For din drøm er at tæmme mig, svage og bly	For your dream is to tame me, weak and shy
Mens jeg tappert gør modstand	While I bravely resist

Hver gang skal det være som dengang	Every time, must be like then
Hver gang jeg vil gi', vil du hellere ta'	Every time I give, you'd rather take
Men min drøm er at elske i venskab	But my dream is to love in friendship
Jeg er træt af min kvindelighed	I'm tired of my femininity
For den bli'r du så bredskuldret af	For it makes you so broad-shouldered
Jeg syn's ikke om mænd, der er mænd	I don't care for men, who are men
Men om mænd, der er menn'sker	But for men, who are human

For din skyld er det slut med komedien	For your sake the comedy's over
For din skyld er det tid at ta' maskerne af	For your sake it's time to take off the masks
For din skyld gør din elskede oprør	For your sake your lover revolts
Jeg er ikke dit bytte, men ligemand	I'm not your prey, but peer
Menn'ske, jeg si'r det for din skyld	Human, I say it for your sake

For ellers glider jeg	For otherwise I'll slide away
