The snow softly glistens on the mountains tonight
And there's not a footprint to be seen
A kingdom silent and lonely
And I'm the Queen
The wind howls like the whirlwind inside me
I can't take it anymore, now I let it loose
Let nobody in, look at nobody
You always have to be the good girl
No glance, no sob
The mask on
It ends here
Let it go, let it go
I really can't take it anymore
Let it go, let it go
Slam the door, don't turn back
Don't care about all their comments
And the storm rages on
The frost never bothered me anyway
It's strange, but from a distance
Everything seems so small
And the fears I felt
Turn out to be gone
Now I want to see what I can do
Set the limits, where and how
No wrong, no right
No law for me
I'm free
Let it go, let it go
I'm now wind and sky as one
Let it go, let it go
My last tear vanished
I stand here and I stay here
And the storm rages on
My powers shoot through the air straight to the ground
My soul shatters like ice crystals all around
And no thought forms, icy cold inside me
No, I'm never going back
Past is past
Let it go, let it go
I rise again like the break of dawn
Let it go, let it go
That good girl is gone
Here in the light, I make my entrance
And the storm rages on
The frost never bothered me anyway

SONG MEANING

Elke Buyle’s “Laat Het Los” is the Dutch voice of pure liberation. Picture a snow-covered mountaintop where a once-timid queen finally decides to drop her mask, slam the castle doors shut, and let the swirling storm outside mirror the whirlwind inside her heart. She has spent years trying to be the braaf meisje— the perfect, obedient girl — but the icy wind now carries her doubts away, leaving only fierce self-confidence in its wake.

As the chorus soars, she transforms fear into freedom, loneliness into power. The snow and frost no longer sting; they sparkle as proof that she can set her own limits, rewrite her own rules, and greet the dawn as a brand-new woman. “Laat Het Los” is more than a winter anthem. It is a rallying cry to trust your inner storm, break free from expectations, and shine unapologetically in your own dazzling light.
