Pihi neito [English translation]

Many types of men were

offered to me, many types and

many looks were shown

Many suitors tried

the village dandies looked and

the prettiest ones peeked

The potty-mouthed ones visited

the potty-mouthed ones and the cockchafers

wanted me

Even the drunkards wooed me

to be their wife, holding a bottle of booze

to be theirs

The dandies tested their strength and skill

the dandies tested their strength and skill

I didn't accept them

I didn't want them, I didn't

accept them, I didn't want them

I didn't accept them

I didn't want them, I didn't

accept them, I didn't want them

"A stingy miser"

that's what they called me, "A stingy miser"

that's what they called me

"Picky and uppity"

they laughed at me, "picky and

uppity" they laughed at me

"Gout-leg, gout-leg"

they whispered, "rotten cold fish, rotten cold

fish" they branded me

For I didn't, for I didn't

go with the men

For I didn't, for I didn't

go with the men

I wasn't agreeable to men

I wasn't likeable, I wasn't

agreeable and good-looking

I didn't marry the neighbour's youngest and

prettiest son, I didn't take a boy from my village and

my village

I won't give, I won't give

at all, I won't give, I won't give

at all

I won't touch the tails of men's shirts,

I won't romp with men's dresses

and romp

I won't take a brother under the blanket, under the blanket

I won't seduce a brother to temptation

I won't take him under the blanket, under the blanket

I won't seduce a brother to temptation

I won't give my maidenhood

my youth, I won't give

my youth, my maidenhood

I won't give my maidenhood

my youth, I won't give

my youth, my maidenhood
