Herr Mannelig - Remastered 2015

Bittida en morgon innan solen upprann
Innan foglarna började sjunga
Bergatroliet friade till fager ungersven
Hon hade en falskeliger tunga
Herr Mannelig herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gerna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
Eder vill jag gifva de gångare tolf
Som gå uti rosendelunde
Aldrig har det varit någon sadel uppå dem
Ej heller betsel uti munnen
Herr Mannelig herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gerna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
Sådana gåfvor toge jag väl emot
Om du vore en kristelig qvinna
Men nu så är du det värsta bergatroll
Af Neckens och djävulens stämma
Herr Mannelig herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gerna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
Bergatrollet ut på dörren sprang
Hon rister och jämrar sig svåra
Hade jag fått den fager ungersven
Så hade jag mistat min plåga
Herr Mannelig herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gerna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
Herr Mannelig herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gerna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
Herr Mannelig herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gerna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
Herr Mannelig herr Mannelig trolofven i mig
För det jag bjuder så gerna
I kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
Om i viljen eller ej
Once in the early morning before sun rise
Before the dawn chorus sounded
The mountain troll woman proposed to a knight
She spoke with a forked tongue
Knight Mannelig, Knight Mannelig
Please marry me
For I can give you everything
Your answer can only be "yes" or "no"
If you want it that way
I will give you twelve fine mares
Which are grazing in the shady grove
They have never felt a saddle
Never a bridle
I will give you twelve mills
Situated between Tillö and Ternö
The mill stones have the finest red gleam
And the wheels are made of silver
I will give you a golden sword
Which sounds with gold rings
And in battles fights as you wish
On the battle field you will be victorious
I will give you a shirt, so new
The most beautiful that you have every seen
Not sewn with needle and thread
Crocheted from the finest white silk
Gifts such as these I would love to accept
If you were a Christian woman
But you are an evil mountain troll woman
From the species of the water trolls and the devil
The mountain troll ran out through the door
She walled and wept loudly
If I had got the handsome man
I would be freed from my pain
Knight Mannelig, Knight Mannelig
Please marry me
For I can give you everything
Your answer can only be "yes" or "no"
If you want it that way
Einmal früh morgens vor Sonnenaufgang
Bevor der Vögel Lied erklang
Machte die Bergtrollin dem Ritter einen Antrag
Sie sprach mit gespaltener Zunge
Ritter Mannelig, Ritter Mannelig
Bitte heirate mich
Denn ich kann dir alles geben
Deine Antwort kann nur "ja" sein oder "nein"
Wenn du es so willst
Ich werde dir zwölf feine Stuten schenken
Die im schattigen Hain grasen
Noch nie haben sie einen Sattel gespürt
Noch nie einen Zügel
Ich werde dir zwölf Mühlen schenken
Gelegen zwischen Tillö und Ternö
Die Mühlsteine sind vom besten roten Glanz
Und die Räder sind aus Silber
Ich werde dir ein goldenes Schwert schenken
Das mit fünfzehn Goldringen klingt
Und im Kampfe zuschlägt wie du willst
Auf dem Schlachtfeld würst du siegreich sein
Ich will der ein Hemd schenken, so neu
Das schönste das du je gesehen
Nicht genäht mit Nadel und Faden
Aus der feinsten weißen Seide gehäkelt
Geschenke wie diese würde ich gern annehmen
Wenn du eine christliche Frau wärst
Aber du bist ein böser Bergtroll
Aus dem Geschlecht der Wassertrolle und des Teufels
Die Bergtrollin rannte zur Tür hinaus
Sie klagte und weinte laut
Hätt'ich den schönsten Herrn bekommen
Wär ichg von meiner Qual erlöst
Ritter Mannelig, Ritter Mannelig
Bitte heirate mich
Denn ich kann dir alles geben
Deine Antwort kann nur "ja" sein oder "nein"
Wenn du es so willst

Sir Mannelig - Remastered 2015

Early one morning before the sun rose,
Before the birds began to sing,
The mountain troll woman proposed to a handsome young knight,
Her tongue was deceitful and cunning.
Sir Mannelig, Sir Mannelig, please marry me,
For I offer you so much.
You can only answer yes or no,
Whether you will or not.
I will give you twelve steeds,
That roam the rose-filled groves,
They have never borne a saddle,
Nor a bridle in their mouths.
Sir Mannelig, Sir Mannelig, please marry me,
For I offer you so much.
You can only answer yes or no,
Whether you will or not.
Such gifts I would gladly accept,
If you were a Christian woman,
But you are the worst mountain troll,
Of the Neck's and the devil's kin.
Sir Mannelig, Sir Mannelig, please marry me,
For I offer you so much.
You can only answer yes or no,
Whether you will or not.
The mountain troll ran out the door,
She trembled and lamented deeply,
If I had gotten the handsome young knight,
Then I would have lost my torment.
Sir Mannelig, Sir Mannelig, please marry me,
For I offer you so much.
You can only answer yes or no,
Whether you will or not.
Sir Mannelig, Sir Mannelig, please marry me,
For I offer you so much.
You can only answer yes or no,
Whether you will or not.
Sir Mannelig, Sir Mannelig, please marry me,
For I offer you so much.
You can only answer yes or no,
Whether you will or not.
Sir Mannelig, Sir Mannelig, please marry me,
For I offer you so much.
You can only answer yes or no,
Whether you will or not.

And strikes in battle as you desire,
On the battlefield, you will be victorious.

The most beautiful you have ever seen,
Not sewn with needle and thread,
But crocheted from the finest white silk.
Gifts such as these I would gladly accept,

From the lineage of water trolls and the devil.
The mountain troll woman ran out the door,
She wailed and wept loudly,

I would be freed from my torment.
Knight Mannelig, Knight Mannelig,
Please marry me,
For I can give you everything.
Your answer can only be "yes" or "no,"
