Juljeitsån

Juljeitsan' a' fjella dromørkt va' om natta di fola -me' kobbsjinnstøvla og jarnsko.Og da' va' dag og ljøs, da di fram kom.

Hán pekka på dørra me' fenger'n sinmørkt va' om natta di fola -"Å høyr du litataus, læt me' inn".Og da' va' dag og ljøs, da di fram kom.

"Nei, ingjen bón'gluint læt e' inn,mørkt va' om natta di fola -e' e' ei lita taus alein" *.Og da' va' dag og ljøs, da di fram kom.

"E' e' ingjen bón', imøst du tok,mørkt va' om natta di fola -e' e' en Kongens sán sá klok".Og da' va' dag og ljøs, da di fram kom.

"E' du en Kongens sán sá klok,mørkt va' om natta di fola -sá søng en sálm' førutjo bok!".Og da' va' dag og ljøs, da di fram kom.

"Nei, ikje kan e' i bokjen sjá,mørkt va' om natta di fola -men meire kan e' pá harpa slá."Og da' va' dag og ljøs, da di fram kom.

"kan du sá godt pá harpo slá,mørkt va' om natta di fola -sá gár e' át dørra á ly' darpá."Og da' va' dag og ljøs, da di fram kom.

Resen han snudd' se' dørra ifrá.mørkt va' om natta di fola -Hán tørka de táran', sá ingjen sku' sjá.Og da' va' dag og ljøs, da di fram kom.

Fór hán sá heim me' sjumilssteg,mørkt va' om natta di fola -møtt' hán mor si pá heimeveg.Og da' va' dag og ljøs, da di fram kom.

"Kvi gjor' du ikj' sá hán far din klok?mørkt va' om natta di fola -Hán me' opigjønno' ljøren tok."Og da' va' dag og ljøs, da di fram kom.

"E' ság vel da' sá pá ljøren sto',mørkt va' om natta di fola -e' røss i holl nár e' kjem da' i ho' !"Og da' va' dag og ljøs, da di fram kom.

The Jutul boy

The Jutul boy* traveled over the mountainsThe night was dark when they leftWith his pouch of tobacco* and his iron shoesAnd it was daylight when they arrived

He tapped on the door with his fingersthe night was dark when they leftoh hear me sweet girl, let me inand it was daylight when they arrived

No, I will let no farm boy insidethe night was dark when they leftfor I am a small girl all aloneand it was daylight when they arrived

I am no farmer´s son, you are mistakenthe night was dark when they leftI am the wise son of a kingand it was daylight when they arrived

If you are the wise son of a kingthe night was dark when they leftthen sing me a psalm without looking in the bookand it was daylight when they arrived

No, I can't look in the bookthe night was dark when they leftbut I'm much better at playing the harpand it was daylight when they arrived

If you are so gifted at playing the harpthe night was dark when they leftI will listen to you from behind the doorand it was daylight when they arrived

The troll turned away from the doorthe night was dark when they lefthe dried his tears so that no one would seeand it was daylight when they arrived

Then he went home with seven-mile-stridesthe night was dark when they lefton the way home he met his motherand it was daylight when they arrived

“Why didn't you do as your wise father did?the night was dark when they leftHe hauled me up through the ljoren*”and it was daylight when they arrived

“I saw what was written/standing on the ljorenthe night was dark when they leftand I shudder to think of it!”and it was daylight when they arrived
