[Verse 1

In sixteen fourteen, by Helge's tide,

King Christian's vision came alive.

From Vä and Åhus, people moved,

To Allö's isle, a city proved.

[Verse 2

A fortress strong, with walls of might,

To guard the realm, day and night.

Heliga Trefaldighet's spire ascends,

Nordic beauty that never ends.

[Chorus

Kristianstad's tale, through war and peace,

A legacy that will not cease.

From Danish crown to Swedish hand,

A storied past upon this land.

[Verse 3

In Roskilde's pact, the Swedes did claim,

This bastion with a Danish name.

Through Skåne's war, the cannons roared,

Yet Kristianstad its strength restored.

[Verse 4

The nineteenth century saw the fall,

Of fortress walls, once standing tall.

Boulevards replaced the stone,

A modern city had grown.

[Chorus

Kristianstad's tale, through war and peace,

A legacy that will not cease.

From Danish crown to Swedish hand,

A storied past upon this land.

[Bridge

Through floods and flames, the city stands,

A testament to human hands.

From railway's rise to present day,

Kristianstad leads the way.

[Verse 5

Now biosphere reserves embrace,

The Vattenrike's cherished space.

Four centuries of history,

A living, breathing tapestry.

[Chorus

Kristianstad's tale, through war and peace,

A legacy that will not cease.

From Danish crown to Swedish hand,

A storied past upon this land.

[Outro

So raise the banner, sound the call,

Kristianstad's spirit unites us all.

From past to present, future's cast,

A city built to last.
