Astri, Mi Astri

Astrid, mi Astrid, som eine helt tå meg,
Den tid du va′ meg så inderleg god!
Den ti du græt kvar ein gong eg gjekk frå deg,
Som va' kvar laurdagskveld, mins du det no?
Då va′ eg bygdis den sælaste gut,
Inkje eg bytte med prest eller fut.
Då var eg bygdis den sælaste gut,
Inkje eg bytte med prest eller fut.

Den ti du helt uta Astrid åleine,
Då inkje Svanaug va' venre fe deg;
Den ti du va' no så snegge på beina,
Då du kvar laurdagskveld ila til meg;
Inkje med skrivarens dotter ha′ eg
Den gangje bytta, sku′ eg mista deg.
Inkje med skrivarens dotter ha' eg
Den gangje bytta, sku′ eg mista deg.

Astrid, My Astrid

Astrid, my Astrid, as truly mine,
The time you were so incredibly good to me!
The time you cried every time I left you,
Like every Saturday night, do you remember?
Then I was the happiest boy in the village,
I would not have traded with a priest or a steward.
Then I was the happiest boy in the village,
I would not have traded with a priest or a steward.

The time you held out for Astrid alone,
Then Svanaug was not more beautiful to you;
The time you were so quick on your feet,
Then every Saturday night you hurried to me;
Not with the clerk's daughter would I have
At that time exchanged, should I lose you.
Not with the clerk's daughter would I have
At that time exchanged, should I lose you.
