Oppochnervisan [English translation]

Up and down

Down and up

The pig crow in the top of the fir tree

And a mouse

In our house

Curses and chews tobacco1

The sheep barks

Hatches sweets

The dog meows

The little pig crow

Up and down

Down and up

The pig crow in the top of the fir tree

And our cow

You can believe

She's going to row

The goat dances

The cockerel has five tails

The oxen cackles

The little pig crow

Up and down

Down and up

The pig crow in the top of the fir tree

And our cat

He believes that

The hat is a hat 2

The hen is hunting

The fox in our fields

The cow is neighing

The little pig crow

Up and down

Down and up

The pig crow in the top of the fir tree

And our steer

Is flying out

Now the song is over

1. Snus is a Swedish type of tobacco2. A bit of confusion here since there are two Swedish words for hat, describing different sort. The word "myssa" is slang for "mössa" if you want to look it up
