Här är några som jag samlat ihop. En del är bara delvis engelska, eller svengelska.
Själv tycker jag att det är knepigt när det är typiska svenska melodier, eller när de är på svengelska. Jag vill ju att de engelsktalande gästerna ska kunna sjunga med.
Hoppas att det kan vara till hjälp.

BALLONGVISAN - BALLOON SONG
Melody: My bonnie (A balloon and a needle to each guest ? children need help)
Today is a day to remember;
Today is a day we?ll all sing.
The song will be heard through the evening,
with a tra-la-la la and a ding.
Bride groom bride groom, the sweetest couple we?ve met we?ve met.
Bride groom bride groom, the sweetest couple we?ve met.
We have traveled over the ocean,
to Sweden where flowers abloom.
The song will be heard through the evening,
we?re singing for bride and groom.
Bride groom bride groom, the sweetest couple we?ve met we met.
Bride groom bride groom, the sweetest couple we?ve met.
With voices so loud and so pretty,
our notes so high they will haaa---ang.
the crescendo will go even louder and it will end with a bang!
Bride groom bride groom, the sweetest couple we?ve met we met.
Bride groom bride groom, the sweetest couple we?ve met.
TAKE THE BALLOONS FROM UNDER YOUR PLATES!
We first breathe air in our bodies,
and we shape our mouth to an ?O?
For a moment we?ll stop our singing and we will start to blow.
Blow up, blow up, we?re blowing the balloon so round so round.
Blow up, blow up, we?re blowing the balloon so round.
PAUS FOR BLOWING
The balloons are now filled up with air;
let?s remember any good-ol? friend. (send/attend/we gather for a salute.)
Then let the needle prick the balloon,
when the song reaches the end.
Shooting, shooting, we?re shooting a banging balloon salute!
Shoot ?em, shoot ?em, for our bride and groom!!
BANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WE ARE SAILING
We are sailing, we are sailing,
through the water, across the sea.
We are sailing, lugna waters,
to be ute, to be free.
I am länsing, I am glänsing,
forsing framåt, mera vind!
Elva meter, fulla segel,
that's my life, my dear wife.
I am freezing, it is gunging,
båten laying, oh my God!
Children crying, starta motor!
Oh, where are we? I'll go home.
Can't you hear me, can't you hear me?
Tyst du stör mig, I am busy.
I'm kappsegling, med en maxi,
to be winner, or to die.
Can't you hear me, can't you hear me?
Reva segel, sun is down.
Går på grundet, båt is läcking.
Jag tar bussen in to town.
We are sailing, we are sailing,
home again, across the sea.
We are flying, forever trying,
to be happy, to be free.
Första och sista versen sjunges av alla. Andra och fjärde versen sjunges av manligt
kön, vilket gör att tredje och femte sjunges av kvinnor
You are my sunshine
The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and cried
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
I'll always love you and make you happy
If you will only say the same
But if you leave me to love another
You'll regret it all someday
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
To my girl
Melodi: Vintern rasat
When you're absent, dear, I always miss you.
Just to think about it makes me sad.
When you're present, dear, Oh how I kiss you.
Just to think about it makes me glad.
Let me drink to you, my true love and only.
You're so sweet, so beautiful, and so kind.
Whether you are near me or I am lonely,
you are always present in my mind.
Hell and Gore
Mel: Helan går
Hell and Gore
Chung Hop father Allan, Allan ley
Hell and Gore
Chung Hop father Allan ley
On handsome in the hell and tar
Hell are in the half and four
Hell and Gore
Chung Hop father Allan ley.
Other lands
Mel: Vintern rasat
Other lands have vineyards without numbers
And their fruit becomes the native wine
But the Swedes make liquor out of lumber
Smelling fragrantly of turpentine
Now if you would take another measure
Cool and clear go gurgling down the spine
Let?s enjoy the Swedish forest pleasure
Let?s fill up and drink another pine!
