I love old nordic folk songs. Thank you, wonderful and brings joy to my heart

[@zeffy9427]

Du sjunger så himla underbart! Vet inte om du tar emot förfrågningar, men hade älskat att höra dig sjunga både Ack, Värmeland du sköna och Psalmen, Härlig är Jorden! Tack för så många underbara magiska stunder :)

I will make a try soon, but since its an old song some words might lack a direct translation into english, alebild for example is: a lifeless replica placed by the trolls to trick the villagers into thinking the person in question is dead (when the trolls infact had preformed an abduction). I suspect that the modern word alibi evolved out of this one, but its used in a different contex and cant really be used as a direct translation

[@scouttyra]

It's similar to some kinds of changelings, but here it's an adult that's taken

[@ralphyboy25]

This is a translation I found. (I do not know if it is Eloinona's version though) Part 1: In Virestad parish in Kronoberg county The home called Röckla lays There Per and Kersti lived, and they lived well A Paradise on earth it may have been like In the name of love she grew fertile And time strode to delivery’s moment The day that she would give birth.

[@ralphyboy25]

Part 8: On Käringekullen you could see her often At least every Christmas Eve With crying eyes she combed her hair And the rags of childbirth was her clothing But when they considered bringing her home She disappeared so swiftly from their sight Like the shooting stars in the sky.

[@gabrielalejandropenanavarr5100]

I really love this performance

[@pattycrowe]

May I ask where you heard these old ballads, that you were able to learn the melodies?

[@ralphyboy25]

Part 3: When Per woke up and looked upon Kersti He thought that her cheeks seemed pale He thought she was dead in childbirth’s pain Thus he calmly spoke these words: “Oh hear my dear friend, it is hard for me Who wasn’t awake and spoke to thee The moment you took leave of this world.”

[@ralphyboy25]

Part 6: In the evening the guests sat at the table The music he lets himself enjoy Outside the door, he hears Kersti’s voice She said: “Dear Per take me back! Pass me your garter from your noble hand And I’ll be freed from the trolls’ hard bond I no longer ask for marriage.”

[@ignacioragnarsson8725]

is beautiful , i love it

[@johangudmundson6007]

Nuuu fick jag en ny favorit igen.

[@MichelleSeven]

vackert, vackert, så vackert!

[@pacthegreatest]

2:30 Im speechless...

[@yasserali3538]

i don't understand any thing but nice song

[@rebeccasjodal9769]

It's a song about a mother who is kidnapped and replaced by the trolls when she's given birth. Her husband think she's dead and marries another woman. The mother becomes very sad when she heras about the wedding and becomes a spirit unable to find peace

[@gabrielalejandropenanavarr5100]

I love this

[@ralphyboy25]

Part 4: Per goes to the priest and says that she’s dead And wanted to let the bells ring for her But Master Nils answered “I’m sorry for your loss And I’ll tell you more if you can keep silent. She’s not dead at all, that was your own fault For when you fell asleep the mountain trolls came And exchanged an image for Kersti.”

[@salvadorperezcontreras9542]

Gracias por compartir la letra.

[@harangviraag666]

Hi! I just can!t believe, but I found the Swedish lyrics! I hope, it's right, and share it with everyone: 1. I Virestads socken i Kronobergs län Är hemmanet Röckla beläget Der bodde Per och Kersti, de lefde så väl Ett paradis på jorden månd liknat I kärlekens namn blev hon fruktsam Och tiden hon skred till förlossningens stund Den dagen då hon skulle föda.

[@Marcusianery]

9 years later...looks close enough to me!

[@ralphyboy25]

Part 2: Late one evening when the people slept sweetly And the birds were no longer singing When Kersti laid lonely on the childbed And watched over the little one In came the trolls, they took Kersti away They had made an image in Kersti’s likeness They put it down in the bed of birth.

[@Izzzadora]

This is so beautiful.... have you got the lyrics?

[@Izzzadora]

Oh, sorry, I didn't see! An English translation would be fine too!

[@Falahk07]

lyrics have already been posted in the comment field a page back, or are you asking for an english translation of them?

[@ralphyboy25]

Part 7: That help was available three times straight Then she had no more power to speak Per stepped up from the bride over his table But the people grabbed his clothes; “Oh hear now dear Per, you see that it is night The trolls can take you the very same way That they took your last wife.”

[@StarshipTrooper4231]

Helvetiskt vackert.

[@Karl_Johansson]

asså lyssnar inte på folkmusik men det här fick rygghåren att rycka ifrån huden så bra var det

[@ralphyboy25]

@harangviraag666 Sorry. I can not help with the Swedish lyrics. Perhaps Elolinona can provide them. I just came across this English translation, I don't even know if it is accurate.

[@ralphyboy25]

Part 5: When the coffin was put down and the priest had thrown soil Clearly he speaks these words: “Oh Lord God Almighty, we bury here An image beneath the ground now.” Per spent his widower’s year, a fiancée he got From Örkene parish and home to his farm And relatives gather for wedding.

[@madelenelarsson7640]

Du sjunger så himla vackert! =D lust att dela med dig av ackorden? ^^

[@gabrielalejandropenanavarr5100]

Make sad and happy

[@ResponsLive]

[@harangviraag666]

ikke noe problem! :D

[@ralphyboy25]

Part 9: A hundred and seventy years ago this shall have happened So says the family in Röckla Per’s children have lived on that farm line to line I want to count them all Those who live there, back to their great-grandfather Who lost his Kersti all those years from this 1840.
