Noun

sommar c

summer
- 1980, “Sommarnatt [Summer night]”, in Lars "Dille" Diedricson, Torben Ferm (music), Sommarnatt‎^[1], performed by Snowstorm:
  Sommarnatt, när jag svävar fram i mörkret. Sommarnatt, det ger en skön highway feelin'. Sommarnatt, jag glider fram på gatan. Sommarnatt, i min jättemaskin.
  Summer night, when I float through the dark [float (levitate, or other smooth movement by extension) forth in the dark]. Summer night, it gives a cool highway feelin'. Summer night, I glide along the street [glide forth/forward on the street]. Summer night, in my giant machine.
- 1982, Gyllene Tider (lyrics and music), “Sommartider [Summer times]”‎^[2]:
  Sommartider, hej, hej, sommartider. Ge mig din hunger, ge mig din hand. Ge mig allt du vill och allt du kan. Sommartider, hej, hej, sommartider. Läppar mot läppar som tar mig i land. Som ger sommartider till varann.
  Summer times, hey, hey, summer times. Give me your hunger, give me your hand. Give me everything that you want and everything that you can. Summer times, hey, hey, summer times. Lips against lips, that take me ashore. That give summer times to each other.
- 1990, Sven-Ingvars, David Alexandre Winter (lyrics and music), “Sommar och sol [Summer and sun]”‎^[3]:
  Sommar, sommar och sol. Havet och vinden, och doft av kaprifol. Sommar, sommar och sol. En himmel så blå som viol.
  Summer, summer and sun. The sea and the wind, and scent of honeysuckle. Summer, summer and sun. A sky as blue as violet [flower].
- 1991, Bobby Ljunggren, Håkan Almqvist, Eva Lindblad (lyrics and music), “Sommaren i city [[The] summer in the city]”‎^[4]performed by Angel:
  Sommaren i city 1990 – kommer du ihåg mig? Minns du vad som hände? Minns du vad du sa när du träffade mig? Kommer du ihåg mig – 1990, sommaren i city? Minns du var vi var? Och minns du vad vi sa?
  [The] summer in the city ["sommar i city" would literally be "summer in the city," but "the summer in the city" sounds a bit unidiomatic], 1990 ["in 1990" – Swedish skips the "in"] – do you remember me? Do you remember what happened? Do you remember what you said when you met me? Do you remember me – 1990, [the] summer in the city? Do you remember where we were? And do you remember what we said?
