Herr Holkin [English translation]

And if Mr. Holkin has you tempted

Wishes me roses

Then you shall never again live with me

One night, he plays with the others where they sleep

Oh, if but i had a fully faithful friend

Wishes me roses

Like the tidings that traveled to Mr. Holkin this evening

One night, he plays with the others where they sleep

The false maiden was quick to respond

Wishes me roses

If nobody else shall carry these tidings then I will

One night, he plays with the others where they sleep

Little Kerstin has sent me to you

Wishes me roses

She begged for you to ride to her

One night, he plays with the others where they sleep

The false maiden shall alive be buried

For she wanted to betray such innocent blood

The false maiden shall alive be buried

For she wanted to betray such innocent blood

The false maiden shall alive be buried

For she wanted to betray such innocent blood

Grant her these wine bottles

Wishes me roses

Ask her to drink her sorrows from her mind

One night, he plays with the others where they sleep

Ask her to neither mourn nor whimper

Wishes me roses

Promise her that i will ride to her tomorrow

One night, he plays with the others where they sleep

The false maiden shall alive be buried

For she wanted to betray such innocent blood

The false maiden shall alive be buried

For she wanted to betray such innocent blood

The false maiden walked to the lake shore

There she drank the wine and filled them with water

While the others they sleep

Mr. Holkin sent you bottles of water

Therefore he wishes never to ride to you

While the others they sleep

The false maiden shall alive be buried

For she wanted to betray such innocent blood

The false maiden shall alive be buried

For she wanted to betray such innocent blood

The false maiden shall alive be buried

For she wanted to betray such innocent blood
