Ólavur Riddararós [English translation]
Ólavur Riddararós [English translation]
Olaf rides along the mountains
with coal and smith
He came upon an elven house
Young lads, happy lads, step up on the floor
dance merrily
Out came an elven maiden
with coal and smith
Braided hair on shoulders lay
Young lads, happy lads, step up on the floor
dance merrily
"Be welcome Olaf Knightrose
with coal and smith
come to the dance and sing for us"
Young lads, happy lads, step up on the floor
Young lads, happy lads, step up on the floor
Young lads, happy lads, step up on the floor
dance merrily
("I can no longer stay with the elves
for tomorrow I will wed")
Will you no longer stay with the elves
with coal and smith
Sick I shall make your wedding (?)
I would rather be buried tomorrow
with coal and smith
Then lie ill for seven winters
Young lads, happy lads, step up on the floor
dance merrily
She filled him a drinkinghorn
with coal and smith
in it went a grain of poison
Young lads, happy lads, step up on the floor
dance merrily
Young lads, happy lads, step up on the floor
dance merrily
