Ängeln i rummet - Eva Dahlgren, tr. by a friend of mine.

The Angel In the Room

There’s an angel in my room

Her nest is right above my head

She makes me calm

And she whispers to me 

All that I say to you

There’s an other in my body

Her soul is the most beautiful of souls

She is love and hope

And she tells you

How much I love you

There’s a spirit by my foot

Who blows warmth over my skin

It tingles and you saw how I smiled

And when she breathes over me

It’s so that you will get closer to the warmth

And here I am with all the rest

Of what makes a human whole

And I hope… I hope that you’ll cope with me 

And that the angel in the room… that it’s her you’ll see

That last verse is gutting me.
