Skipper Klements morgensang: https://youtu.be/C0QQzXgKwOI?si=Ifno3B832V7P33D- A song from 1970 (I actually thought it was way older) about a civil war in 1534

Alternatively Midsommervisen, written in 1885, with the popular melody rewritten in 1980: https://youtu.be/q4i-5Df0oVc

Is sung on Sankt Hans Aften every year while roasting a (sculpture of a) witch on a huge bonfire.
