Quote is from an Swedish poem, and translating poetry ain't easy. But I found
a translation on a blog and you can find all of the poem here:

Photo is taken in the tiny village where the poet, Dan Andersson, were from.
We visited there in 2013 since I have ancestors who lived there.

The bits I used are translated like this:
There is something beyond mountains, beyond flowers, beyond singing,
there is something there behind the star, behind my burning heart.
Hearken, something goes there whispering, goes there calling me and praying
‘come to us, for of this earthly kingdom you are not a part.'

By a shore all dressed in seashells stands a gate of roses heavy,
therein sleep the mouldered shipwrecks, and the tired men find rest.
Songs unheard and high there sing like violins in distant echoes
under arches where eternal children live forever blessed.
There are no comments to display.
