[Verse 1
By the coast where the waters roar,
Kärnan stands, Helsingborg’s core.
From the 1300s it rose so high,
A watchtower bold against the sky.
[Chorus
Guardian of Kärnan, in moonlit gleam,
Defends the land with stone supreme.
Through ages of war, through peace and dread,
You stand unyielding, your oath is fed.
[Verse 2
Erik Menved laid the stone,
A fortress strong, a king’s backbone.
Four-meter walls, a sentinel tall,
A bastion built to withstand all.
[Bridge
Danish kings, Swedish might,
All sought Kärnan’s towering height.
Christopher of Bavaria drew his last breath,
Within these walls, his tale of death.
[Chorus
Guardian of Kärnan, in moonlit gleam,
Defends the land with stone supreme.
Through ages of war, through peace and dread,
You stand unyielding, your oath is fed.
[Verse 3
Sieges came, and sieges passed,
But Kärnan stood, defiance vast.
A symbol of power, courage, and pride,
A beacon where histories collide.
[Outro
So gaze upon this towering might,
Recall its past, its steadfast fight.
Kärnan guards both night and day,
Helsingborg’s glory, come what may.
