Änglahund (Angel Dog) Song

In her Earth life, old aunt Kara lived in Sweden with Mom. Today she showed us a Swedish song called Änglahund, it means Angel Dog in English! The chorus goes something like this:

Can I take my dog with me to Heaven?

He is good and he’s been a real friend

He is smart and cute, the license is paid

If I can, music man, then I’ll be so glad

We dogs in Heaven really like this song and we are planning to form a rock band and put it on our repertoire. The band will be called Zorro and the Howlers. Lots of dogs wants to be in the band and Uncle Zorro is taking applications now.

Just a thought, I have not actually seen any people in Heaven. Aunt Kara says there is another Heavenly department where dogs and their owners live together!

To answer the question in the song: yes, dogs can go to Doggy Heaven and I am a Doggy Angel.

Änglahund, by Hasse Andersson (loosely translated from Swedish)

Verse 1

It was late one night, and we had played at a market

Cold and tired, I stood behind the stage for a while

I heard someone mumble about some worry

there in the grass sat a man and a little dog

Chorus

Hello music man, please answer my question

It is honest and I mean every word

When our Lord puts the flame of life out

and it’s time to leave this Earth

Can I take the dog with me to Heaven

He is good and he’s been a real friend

He is smart and cute, the license is paid

If I can, music man, then I’ll be so glad

Verse 2

I answered simply, what else could I say

Your dog will surely go to Heaven

when it dies

Someone yelled, it was time to leave

When I sat in the car, I thought about

the question again

Repeat Chorus

Verse 3

To him the question was important

An honest answer, he deserved

but who can really answer?

if dead dogs must stay on Earth

Repeat Chorus
