Ok...I might be a sap...but...yeah...so what! Can you watch this without getting at least a little misty eyed

This is a song, or a yoik (jojk in swe) sung in the Sami language by Jon Henrik Fjällgren, a swedish Sami (born colombian). He was in Talent Sweden and won it. The Performance video (there are eng subs) (watch the jury!).


If you dont want to watch the first I can tell you that he wrote this yoik in honor of his best friend that died in an accident.

The "full song"


The English translation of this song;
Do you go with me still, my dear friend,
Although I no longer see you?
Are you still here on earth,
Just as you remain in my heart?
I lie there and ponder,
Its a deafly soundless around me.
The tears break through and falls,
In the memories of you.

An angel that was left behind,
Have now got its wings.
Where do you fly now, my angel?
Where do you fly now?

Are you flying through the pearly gates, tell me?
Or to the worlds end?
Are you flying beside me?
Or am I alone now?

Where ever you are my friend.
Where ever the path takes you.
Promise me you'll wait there,
Until we meet again.

I hope you're happy now.
As i was with you,
The pain you have suffered,
i hope its now gone.

Soar free, my dear friend.
You're free now.
And until we meet again,
Farewell, my angel.
