Nattlig visit [English translation]

Good evening in the cottage, my gracious lady.

May a stranger go over the threshold?

It sounds good for you to do it, it's late,

and the nights are bitter in the autumn.

Is it possible to buy supper with a drink?

My money bags are full.

I don't take payment from an honorable soul,

and I certainly have a liter on the shelf.

But tell me, my lady, where is your husband tonight,

is he still out on the ground?

No, he is lying next to the church since last spring.

See, he went through the ice with a kicksled.*

It hurts me a lot to hear something like that.

So then she sits alone in the garden?

Yes, I certainly have a servant, but he is rather lazy

so it will certainly be rather difficult in the spring.

Hell, the liquor shot was good this evening,

yes, it is lying like cotton in the body.

It is probably safest that he is cautious

otherwise he may vomit..

Perhaps you are starting to feel like me, good woman,

that it murmurs pleasantly in the blood?

Yes, it usually does when the liter is empty,

But now I must clear off the table.

I want to tell you that I am very rich,

and that most want to be my friends.

Yes, the rich who are drawn to me like moths,

but I wonder how many he knows.

But it certainly would be warm if we shared the bed,

my limbs are white and soft.

Yes, I see that he is like buttermilk in the body,

but, he has certainly never done labor.

But look, my lady, that I am rather beautiful,

and I am not bad in the bed.

I am pleased with the beauty I once had,

and the other I get from the servant.

But perhaps a little money would help,

as I said I have much in the bag.

The day I spread myself out for the noble's gold

then the wrinkles will certainly get spotted.

But listen to me then, my uncooperative mare,

it is in fact I who is the king!

Oh damn for those who don't obey! Then he goes out!

I would rather have the devil on the pillow!

The message is clear, I'd better leave.

Such talk I haven't heard for a long time!

Farewell then and thank you for your mighty talk.

Now I'll go and greet the servant.
