** 1974, Björn Afzelius (lyrics and music), “En kungens man [A man of the king [literally, "A the-king's man"]]”‎:Då möter hon en herre, på en häst med yvig man. Han säger: "Jag är kungens man, så jag tar vad jag vill ha. Och du är alltför vacker, för att inte ha nån [någon] man. Följ med mig in i skogen [så] ska jag visa vad jag kan."Then she meets a man [respected man: sir, gentleman, etc.], on a horse with a bushy mane. He says: "I am a man of the king, so I take what I want. And you are much too beautiful, to not have a man. Come with me into the forest and I will show you what I can do [show what I can]."
** 1995, Per Gessle (lyrics and music), “Kung av sand [King of sand]”‎performed by Gyllene Tider:Här kommer kung av sand. Här kommer kungen av ingenting alls.Here comes king of sand [sic – sounds like a proper noun or other lexicalized phrase, like in English]. Here comes the king of nothing at all.
