The snow softly gleams in the moonlight tonight
Not a footprint in sight
This empty, deserted land is my kingdom from now on
Nobody's known till now of the storm that rages in me
It got too much no matter how hard I tried
Let nobody in, speak to nobody
Obey and never leave this place
Feel nothing, do nothing that gives you away
That's too late now
Let it go, let it go
The course must change, it must
Let it go, let it go
Shut the doors for good right now
Whatever they're saying about me out there
Doesn't touch me here anymore
And cold has never bothered me anyway
It's funny that some distance gave such quick insight
Because the fear that always drove me already slides off me
I'm gonna look for who I am
Push the limits that I know
No right or wrong applies to me here
I'm free
Let it go, let it go
The storm inside me is over
Let it go, let it go
No more tears for me
Here my new life begins
Fearless and free
My power grows and raises a colonnade of stone
My soul builds a castle of ice crystals around me
In every crystal echoes the sound of my spirit
Never, no never go back
The past is gone
Let it go, let it go, I'm rising from the cold
Let it go, let it go
On this high peak
Here my life starts again now
Free and fearless
Cold's never been an issue for me

SONG MEANING

Laat Het Los is the Dutch powerhouse version of Disney’s iconic “Let It Go,” and Willemijn Verkaik delivers it with sparkling Northern-Lights energy. Picture a moonlit blanket of fresh snow, no footprints, and a lone queen realizing the empty stillness is hers to command. The lyrics move from hushed secrecy to triumphant release as she trades fearful obedience for bold self-discovery. Snow becomes her stage, ice her architecture, and every shimmering crystal echoes her newfound voice.

At its heart, the song is a celebration of shaking off other people’s expectations and embracing the raw, sometimes chilly, truth of who you are. The “storm inside” turns into soaring freedom once she decides to let it go: no more hiding, no more tears, just pure, fearless authenticity. By the final chorus, she isn’t merely surviving the cold—she’s thriving in it, rising higher than any memory of doubt. It’s a goosebump-giving reminder that true strength arrives the moment you stop apologizing for being yourself.
