Текст и перевод песни SKÁLD - Elverhøy

Elverhøy

Jeg lagde mitt hoved til elverhøy
Mine øyne de finge en dvale
Der kom gangende unge alver to
Som gjerne ville med meg tale

"Statt opp, vakker jomfru
Om du vilt dansen røre."
Alle små fugle begyndte
At kvitre i dale

"Statt opp, vakker jomfru
Om du vilt dansen røre."
Alle små fugle begyndte
At kvitre i dale

Den ene begyndte en vise at kvede
Så favrt over alle kvinder
Striden strøm, den stildes derved
Som før var van at rinde

"Statt opp, vakker jomfru
Om du vilt dansen røre."
Alle små fugle begyndte
At kvitre i dale

"Statt opp, vakker jomfru
Om du vilt dansen røre."
Alle små fugle begyndte
At kvitre i dale

"Da ville vi kunne deg runene
Dertil at lese og skrive."
De danset ut, de danset inn
Alt i den elverferd
"Da ville vi kunne deg runene
Dertil at lese og skrive."
"Statt opp, vakker jomfru
Om du vilt dansen røre."
Alle små fugle begyndte
At kvitre i dale

"Da ville vi kunne deg runene
Dertil at lese og skrive."
"Statt opp, vakker jomfru
Om du vilt dansen røre."
Alle små fugle begyndte
At kvitre i dale

"Da ville vi kunne deg runene
Dertil at lese og skrive."
"Statt opp, vakker jomfru
Om du vilt dansen røre."
Alle små fugle begyndte
At kvitre i dale

De danset ut, de danset inn, alt i den elverferd
De danset ut, de danset inn, alt i den elverferd
De danset ut, de danset inn

Elven Hill

I laid my head on the elven hill
My eyes they fell into a slumber
There came walking two young elves
Who wanted to speak with me

"Arise, fair maiden
If you wish to join the dance."
All the small birds began
To chirp in the dales

"Arise, fair maiden
If you wish to join the dance."
All the small birds began
To chirp in the dales

One of them began to sing a song
So sweet above all women
The raging stream, it calmed thereby
Which before was wont to flow

"Arise, fair maiden
If you wish to join the dance."
All the small birds began
To chirp in the dales

"Arise, fair maiden
If you wish to join the dance."
All the small birds began
To chirp in the dales

"Then we would teach you the runes
To read and to write."
They danced out, they danced in
All in the elven ring
"Then we would teach you the runes
To read and to write."
"Arise, fair maiden
If you wish to join the dance."
All the small birds began
To chirp in the dales

"Then we would teach you the runes
To read and to write."
"Arise, fair maiden
If you wish to join the dance."
All the small birds began
To chirp in the dales

"Then we would teach you the runes
To read and to write."
"Arise, fair maiden
If you wish to join the dance."
All the small birds began
To chirp in the dales

They danced out, they danced in, all in the elven ring
They danced out, they danced in, all in the elven ring
They danced out, they danced in
