Hamlet

Shakespeare har gjort hans navn berømt
Hamlet, om Hamlet har jeg drømt
Ser jeg prinsen i scenens lys
Si'r jeg med et gys

Det er ham, det er ham, det er Hamlet jeg vil ha'
Jeg' den nye tids Ofelia
Det er ham, det er ham, det er Hamlet, ham der sagde
"Gå i kloster, Ofelia"

Jeg har hørt ham sige
"To be or not to be, that is the question, Ofelia"
Det er ham, det er ham, det er ham jeg holder af
Det er Hamlet jeg vil ha'

Shakespeare var dygtig, klog og stor
Undrende hører jeg hans ord
Sammen med den mand jeg vil ha'
Hamlet af i dag

Det er ham, det er ham, det er Hamlet af i dag
Og han får sin Ofelia
Det er ham, det er ham, det er Hamlet, og i dag
Får han "Ja" af Ofelia

Jeg si'r ikke nej til ham
Når han spør' mig "Er du forelѕket, Ofelia?"
Det er ham, det er ham, det er ham jeg holder af
Det er Hamlet jeg vil ha'

Det er ham, det er ham, det er ham jeg holder af
Det er Hamlet jeg vil hа'

Hamlet

Shakespeare has made his name famous
Hamlet, I have dreamed about Hamlet
I see the prince in the light of the stage
I say with a shudder

It's him, it's him, it's Hamlet, I want him
I'm the Ophelia of the new age
It's him, it's him' it's Hamlet, the one who said
"Go to a convent, Ophelia"

I have heard him say
"To be or not to be, that is the question, Ophelia"
It's him, it's him, it's him I care about
It's Hamlet that I want

Shakespeare was clever, wise and great
I am puzzled by his words
With this man I want
The Hamlet of today

It's him, it's him, it's the Hamlet of today
And he gets his Ophelia
It's him, it's him, it's Hamlet, and today
Does he get "yes" from Ophelia

I don't say no to him
When he asks me "Are you in love, Ophelia?"
It's him, it's him, it's him I care about
It's Hamlet that I want

It's him, it's him, it's him I care about
It'ѕ Hamlet that I wаnt
