Harra Pætur Og Elinborg

Harra Pætur og Elinborgbørn vóru tey so ungløgdu sínum ástum saman,mong eru forløg tung.-- Nú lystir meg í dansin at gá,meðan rósur og liljur tær grógva væl

Bíða vil egi sjey veturmóti frænda vilja,giftast ikki livandi manni,um enn meg kongur gilar-- Nú lystir meg í dansin at gá,meðan rósur og liljur tær grógva væl

Tekkur hon allar myggjarnar,setir saman í ring,tekur upp ein silvursaksog klippar hár umkring

Tekur hon allar myggjanarsker teim iddarakæði,ganga tær til strandar oman,sum Elin fyri var

Enntá var tad Elinborg,dregur upp á seg glógva,so gár hon til stýri at stá,og ternurnar at rógva-- Nú lystir meg í dansin at gá,meðan rósur og liljur tær grógva væl

Úti í miðjum grasgarði,akslar hon sítt skinn,og so búgvin gongur honí høgar hallir inn

Væl siti tær harra Pæturog tann danska frúplaga so allir høviskir mennat halda sína trú?

Liv nú væl, frú Ingibjørg,við títt elvagangi!eg havi nú fingið mín festarmann,eg lænti tær so leingi-- Nú lystir meg í dansin at gá,meðan rósur og liljur tær grógva væl

Mr. Peter and Elinborg

Mr. Peter and ElinborgThey were children, so youngUnderstood love for each otherBut destiny is heavy- Now I feel like going to the dance,whilst roses and lilies grow well

I will wait for seven nights,against my family's willwould not wed a living mannot even if he were the king- Now I feel like going to the dance,whilst roses and lilies grow well

She gathers all the girlstogether in a ringshe takes a silver scissorand clips hair around

She gathers all the girlsmakes them the clothes of knightsthen they all walk down to the beachwhere Elin stands

So it was Elinborgtaking her jewelry onthen she walks to the control stickand the terns begin to row- Now I feel like going to the dance,whilst roses and lilies grow well

Out on the middle of the lawnshe axles her skin*and thus she goes,into the tall halls

Sit well, mr. Peterand the danish ladyIs it like this that esteemed menkeep their promises?

Live well, mrs. Ingibjørgwith your elvish foodnow I have found my betrothed*I lent you for so long- Now I feel like going to the dance,whilst roses and lilies grow well
