Höj dej på vida vingar
Flyg min vackra fågel flyg
över stadens torn och tinnar
över land och over by
Res dej ur askan av det som var
förbrännt
Stig ur dimma, stig ur rök
Höj dej ur gruset av det som gick
i kras
stolt som dagen när den föds
Flyg min vackra fågel
Flyg mot himmelen
Flyg mot rymd och flyg mot ljus
Svinga dej mot solen
Styr mot stjärnorna
Flyg dit drömmarna slår ut
Bjorn Svante Afzelius (January 27, 1947 – February 16, 1999) was a Swedish singer-songwriter and guitarist. Afzelius wrote songs that ranged from love to politics, passing through the joys of everyday life. His music was often characterized by catchy melodies and poetic lyrics, influenced by traditional Swedish folk. Considered a left-wing artist, his songs reflected his socialist ideals and his attention to social issues. Among Afzelius's most famous songs are "Sista dansen", "En dag till", "Jag vill leva" and "Du är min vän". His music continued to be appreciated in Sweden even after his death in 1999.
