Hi Pia. Yes, I know it's written "beautiful"

vacker

but found that in this context was needn't, but suppose you're right.

I wonder if that "En vacker dag " doesn't have the meaning of "Certain day" (I mean, nothing to do with the fact of the day being "beautiful" or rainy ).

That was what I thought about. That's why I didn't translated beautiful. Find your suggestion fine, Lilian.

"Certain day" isn't right. It should be more of a "A beautiful day"

Instead of using word "die", I'd use "become extinct" or "die out".

I think that Lunatunes' translation is fine.
"Some day everything dies". Conveys the idea.
But you have the last word, Lilian.

I still think "one beautiful day" is ok (even if you got me thinking it was soo weird first) but if one can't write that way, I like what hwo-8 wrote: "One day everything vanishes" VANISHES seems better than "dies"... IMO

I would like something like this: some day (or "one day" ) everything dies (or "everything vanishes" ). To me "one beautiful day" does not seem to be the best translation of the beginning of the phrase. I feel a bit more unsure about the end of the phrase (and which to choose of "one day"/"some day" and "dies"/"vanishes" ). Which translation of the end of the sentence to choose depends on how you interprete the Swedish word "slockna" in this context.

I would translate "en vacker dag" : one(fine) day/ one of these (fine) days. The fine isn't necessary.
About "slocknar", I'd say : dies out.
As Pia said, it also depends on the intended meaning of the swedish word.

Thanks to you all.
I think "One day everything vanishes" could work. I'll put a remark about the options
